OK. Continuing this thread from the wrong forum...

I now have the Receipt Paid status and subsequently downloaded the I-864 and I-864A forms. The sponsor (the daughter who is a US citizen) will not qualify with her income as she is a student, and it is mom who sends her money each month from Taiwan. The son (also a US citizen) also lives in the house with his sister, so he can complete the I-864A and attach it to the I-864.

However, mom is the one with significant assets in Taiwan: a business, property, income, etc. In fact she is supporting the kids in the USA.

In reading the I-864A, question 8. b. "I am the intending immigrant and also a member of the sponsor's household." Does this then mean the form can be completed my the immigrant, although she is presently in Taiwan and not currently a member of the household, but the will be once she is allowed into the USA? In other words can the immigrant use her assets in Taiwan to qualify and complete a separate I-864A?

Ah, the fine points of the English language.

Any help will be appreciated, as we don't want to make any mistakes on these forms.

Thanks

From what I read, here is the rub:

A sponsor is required to be at least 18 years old and domiciled in the United States, or its territories or possessions

YMMV
