I-130 Petition for Alien Relative and 864 Affidavit for Support

[dodger22 0]

Good Morning all. I think that when i submit the I-130 Petition for Alien Relative that i need to submit the I-864EZ form at the same time. My new wife seems to think it is only the I-130 Petition for myself and her and then wait to hear back. I want to do this the correct way. I don't want to draw this process out any longer than it will be. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Does filing a relative petition commit me to anything?

Yes. Under the law, each person who immigrates based on a

relative’s petition must have a financial sponsor. If you choose

to sponsor your relative’s immigration by filing a relative petition

(I-130), when the time comes for your relative to immigrate, you

must agree to be his or her financial sponsor by filing Form I-864,

Affidavit of Support. If you do not meet the financial qualifications,

other individuals will then need to make this commitment. For more
