Quick question.........

[mim219s 0]

I'm in the process of putting together my AOS package. I have two quick questions. The first is where do I find my Non-Immigrant Visa Number (I-485)? And lastly, do I still need a sponsor AND co-sponsor for the I-864, Affadavit of Support? My fiancee's Step Father-in-Law was my sponsor and my fiancee was my CO-sponsor, in the origianl K1 fiance visa process. Does my fiance need to fill a form out or JUST her step father, the original Sponsor?

Thanks,

Miro

I always thought that for AOS one's spouse must be the sponsor.

Hi,

i am adjusting from visitor visa so not sure about sponsor ship issue from k 1 visa.( in my case my spouse is sponsor and her uncle is co-sponsor andboth of them filled I 864 separately with supporting docs.

But non immigrant visa is RED colured number in your visa in passport. )it is on lower right side. of the visa issued by US embassy)

i hope this is useful

For AOS, a *spouse* must file I-864. Does your spouse/soon to be make 125% of the poverty guideline? I'm guessing no.

Reading the instruction for the I-864 and its FAQs, you'll see that the law allows for a Joint Sponsor's I-864 when the Sponsor doesn't earn enough.

I realize that and thank you for you in put , but does that mean I just need her step-father to fill it out or get BOTH, him AND my spouse?

Thanks again.

Here is what page 1 of the I864 says:

Who Completes an Affidavit of Support under Section 213A?

For immediate relatives and family-based immigrants, the family member petitioning for the intending immigrant must be the sponsor.

For employment-based immigrants, the petitioning relative or a relative with a significant ownership interest (5 percent or more) in the petitioning entity must be the sponsor. The term ''relative,'' for these purposes, is defined as husband, wife, father, mother, child, adult son or daughter, brother, or sister.

If the petitioner cannot meet the income requirements, a joint sponsor may submit an additional affidavit of support.

A sponsor, or joint sponsor, must also be:

A citizen or national of the United States or an alien lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent

residence;

At least 18 years of age; and

Domiciled in the United States or its territories and possessions.

So, as you can see from the bold text, your wife and your wife's step father need to file separate I-864s.
