My fiance and I recently sent in the application for the K1 Visa.

I'm a bit confused about the financial aspect of all this. I know I have to earn 25% above the poverty line for me and all my dependents. But here's where I'm confused:

I have four children, but they only live with me 50% of the time, and I only claim two of them as dependents on my taxes. So does this count as four dependents or two?

If it's counted as four, will they take into account the child support I receive as part of my income?

Any input is appreciated!!

The general rule is to count anyone that you claim on your taxes and the immigrant that you are sponsoring.

So count yourself, 2 children and the immigrant. Total = 4

Also this should have been posted in a different forum, you are not talking about a waiver here, just the affidavit of support, consulate of embassy general discussion may have been a better place.

Sorry about that! I'm new here and I was confused about the topic titles. I'm still not sure what means what! Thanks so much for your input, though!! Hugs!!
