how a person having almost no income should fill i-864?

[top-top 0]

HI everybody!

I am applying for AOS (i-485 package), came to US couple weeks ago with the k-1 visa.

Now helping my wife(recently married) to fill the i-864 form. She is 19, studing still. So my mother in law helps us being a co-sponsor. We were succesfull with felling this form for her, cause she has W-2 forms for last few years, owns real estate .

BUt my wife recently started working and actually has no annual income, for example. or anything like that.

So maybe someone can give me a link with an example form i-864 filled with the similar situation?

Or any other advices welcome!

thank you guys in advance!

If your wife is working she has an "annual income". What is it? If she started working today and her salary is $40,000 per year her CURRENT annual income is $40,000. If she is making $15 per hour and works 40 hours per week, her CURRENT annual income is $15 x 2080, or a little more than $30,000 per year. You do not have to be working for a year to have a "current annual income". You don't need a link. Though I think there are sample I-864 forms here on this site, yes?)When it asks for "current annual income" just answer. If the job she recently acquired exceeds the poverty guidelines you do not need a joint-sponsor.

I found this one in the "Example Forms" section, at the top of the page.
