Affidavit of Support

[amelynn43 0]

Thank you to everyone for your help! I have kind of an odd question. I'm just looking over this Affidavit of Support and I have a few questions. I'm a statutory employee, which means I am self-employed but get benefits from my company. I also get a bi-weekly draw for two years, basically a paycheck. The problem is that I graduated from college 2 years ago, and have been working with this company for only the past 8 months. I don't have any past tax returns. Do you think I could just print off my past 16 pay stubs and write a letter explaining that I get paid every two weeks, and that I also have benefits and everything through my company? Should I also explain that I only graduated two years ago, and 6 months of that, I was working in England on a student work visa. I'm just confused as to what to do! Please help!!!!

The paystubs will help, as will a letter from your employer stating your salary. Make sure the letter is on "company letterhead" paper.

You may, as you mentioned, want to write a letter explaining your college and employment history.

Does the "paycheck" you receive add up annually, to an amount exceeding the poverty line?

This should suffice for the USCIS effort, but you may need more documentation at the Embassy to support the I-134.

Thanks for your help! My paycheck adds up to at least $35,000 per year, but it is not a salary. It is a draw that has to be paid back once I start earning over that amount. It is kind of confusing, but I do get paid every two weeks, so I don't think it will be a problem. I can get a letter from my employer too, talking about how long I've been with the company. Thank you for your help. I'm just in a weird situation.

As long it adds up to income, however convoluted the process of receipt, you will exceed the income requirements.

Just be sure to have good documentation, as I mentioned earlier. You are in good shape.

Good luck to you.
