Hi,
Our I-130 petition was recently approved on 4/18/23 and we got our welcome letter from the NVC on 4/25/23. I am a US citizen and my husband is a Canadian citizen living in Canada. I am filling out the I-1864 Affidavit of Support. I have a question about Part 6: Sponsor's Employment and Income. I am a full-time employee at a university working as a clinical counselor for the past three years. In January 2023, I also started a small private practice as a licensed mental health counselor. Would I also select #4 "Self Employed" even though it's only been 3-4 months of working a few hours a week? Would I be expected to provide proof of my self-employment even though I haven't filed taxes since I started in 2023? I want to make sure that I accurate in reported my employment.
I do have the 2022 tax returns, but would not have any 1099 form for my private practice since I began the business this year. Thank you in advance for any feedback and insights!
