Both parents as co-sponsors- How to fill out I-134

[Liz_Allan 0]

My parents are helping as cosponsors because my income is right on the border of qualifying and I have not been at my job long enough to have the tax forms to sponsor my K-1 visa fiance on my own.

My mom & dad file as married, joint return.

My dad has the largest part of the income (more than 66% of the total income). Dad's income alone is sufficient to sponsor but we've read of others who were given a RFE because the joint tax filer (spouse) did not fill out an I-134 form also, so we decided it would probably be wisest to have mom fill out a I-134 also.

Our question has to do with #8 on the form.

Who do we put as dependents?? Do we put the same dependents on BOTH forms (filling out separate I-134 forms for both of them)??

2009 tax form lists myself (I am in college and they claimed me as their dependent) plus my sister (16 yrs old).

2009 form also lists mom & dad as having the joint income.

Added complication is that they have adopted my little brother now, he is not on the 2009 tax form but his adoption is final so he will be a 2010 dependent on tax forms.

Should they have it like this

1. Sister (wholly dependent)

2. Brother (wholly dependent)

or

1. Sister (partially dependent)

2. Brother (partially dependent)

or should they just list my sister, since my brother is not on the 2009 tax forms?

or should they also list me, even though I'm filling out a separate I-134 form? I was on the 2009 form is the only reason why we thought I might need to be on there. I did file my own taxes, they were just not enough to qualify on my own as I was in college full time. I'm working full time now so the income has gone way up, but not on the job enough to have filed a tax form to report that income. I do have an employment letter.

This is our last document to get together, we have everything else and we just realized it's a little more complicated than we thought.

Input please?
