I dont think it matters. As long as you along with your sponsor are 125% or whatever the number is above the poverty line, you should be good.

If your petitioner's income is less than 125% of the poverty guide line, then you MUST need co-sponsor / co-sponsors. You will also need co-sponsor's birth certificate, proof of your relation with him/her. Here is the link to poverty guide line :

I was worried about this too... I was thinking of sending co-sponsor info at the time of interview...just in case. Even though NVC approves my AOS. I have heard of them denying people at the interview even though the AOS was accepted. Never can be to safe right?

If you know for a fact that you don't meet the 125% threshold, even if your AOS is accepted you should know they'll catch it sooner or later. If you meet the 125% threshold, no reason to burden yourself with more paperwork by having co-spondor.

Also, everyone take a look at the I-864EZ form. You may qualify for that if you meet certain conditions. Less paperwork = me happy.
