Sponsorship

[ariesgirl1970 0]

Hi all...

I am just at the beginning of the K-1 process and came to sponsorship. I am a USC and my fiance' is from the UK. I am trying to bring him to the states. I was a stay at home mom for years, helping my one son through leukemia. Now I am a student and the only income I have coming in is child support. I know my income is way below what expected. However, my brother is willing to be a sponsor for my fiance'. He lives alone. What would his number of household be considering he will take responsibility to my fiance' and my personal family unit is 4? Does he include me though we wont be residing with my brother? Which form needs to be filled out for Affadavit of Support? Is he my co-signer or does he fill out alone?

Really need help! Thanks

The cosponsor household size for your situation is 2 - As he lives alone, his household is 1 Plus the immigrant being sponsored (I assume just your fiance) is 2.

For the visa process he will fill out an I134.

For AOS he will fill out an I-864 (NOT I-864A)

If you are just starting the process and money is an issue, you might consider a CR-1 marriage visa - much cheaper, and he can work right away when he gets here.

Yah, just add it on to the pile, huh? The process can seem overwhelming, especially at the beginning - when you have to make all the important decisions!
