[CandyLovesAhmed 0]

i need help with the I-134. we have a cosponser so i'm not worried about showing 125% but i was told i still have to fill this out. i am recieving ssi because i'm not able to work at the moment. i have been taking some classes so i can get a job that i am able to do and that will support me. so question is where and what do i put down as income. im afraid they will think he will become a public charge. also i do have a house but i dont have any equalty built up and since we have a cosponser its not needed so thats the only things that could possibly even be put down please help he will have his interview sooon

and i am freaking out here

I guess I can't be very helpful because we had to fill out the other affadavit of support I 864. But I called and asked the NVC what I should do about this. I also have SSI and am in school. They told me that I should fill in the questions about my income as 0 because it is not needed and would just make more work for them and possibly cause delays. They went completely on the co-sponsor's information and proof. Best thing to do is call them if you are unsure.

I don't know if you are at the NVC stage or still at USCIS since my case was somewhat different. But NVC was very helpful to me on some questions. And so was USCIS come to think of it. If you don't get a clear answer the first time keep trying. It is very unlikely to get the same operator if you call back soon, and you could possibly get a more helpful and friendly person than the first time.

First, stop freaking out! That won't get you anywhere and you say you have a co-sponsor, so relax.

Your SSI is your source of income. Yes, you will also need to submit an I-134 and state that SSI is your income and show a tax return and any other income documentation you have. There is NO REQUIREMENT that you or anyone else "have a job", you need to have INCOME (or a co-sponsor) to qualify.

If you (and our co-sponsor) have income exceeding the 125% it is NOT POSSIBLE for him to become a public charge and THAT is the point. Verifying your income for the K-1 and later the AOS disqualifies you or him from receiving public "means tested" aid. No food stamps for you for the next ten years!!!!

SSI is considered need based income and they don't count that as income on either the I-134 or the I-1864. There is a section, at least on the I-1864 in the instructions that talks about that. I think if it is not used for the I-1864 the same would apply for the I--134. I also get SSI that is not reported on a tax return. You can get a print out from social security saying how much you get each year, but disability based SSI is not reported to the IRS. If you work at all then report that, if not then you can't include it. They will go based off of your co-sponsor's information
