Joint Sponsor for Mexico

[Analisa 7]

Hello all,
We're almost ready to start our visa journey but there is only one thing I'm worried about; the affidavit of support.
I make enough money and will be getting a raise next month but I've only been working since March because I was in college before then. Therefore, I don't have a tax return for 2014. I'm afraid that they would turn us down for not having that so I've asked my brother to be my joint sponsor and he agreed to it but now I'm wondering how Mexico feels about joint sponsors for a fiance visa.
Does anybody have experience with this?

Thank you in advance!

I have been working for only six months and also collect disability, so I did not have to file last year. I sent them a letter stating why I did not file and my case was complete 3 days ago. so no problem.

Co-sponsors are accepted in Juarez. They can provide their own separate I-134 and supporting documentation. You can also provide a statement that you were a student, recently graduated, are now employed and was not legally required to file taxes for 2014. Provide letter from employer and recent pay stubs to prove your income meets the requirement. The instructions for Juarez do not even specifically state you must provide tax return.

As long as you have a co-sponsor you will be fine i just submitted my I-130 petition for my husband in mexico today. Good luck!

Just to be clear, a co-sponsor with the I-134 for a K-1 visa and a joint sponsor for the I-864 for a CR-1 visa are two different things. The comparison between them doesn't really work in this instance.

The I-864 absolutely allows for the use of a joint sponsor, no matter what consulate you will be going through. Some consulates will not allow a co-sponsor for the I-134 and K-1 visa., hence why someone would ask if the consulate accepts it for a K-1.

Okay, Thanks a bunch!
