Affidativy of Support

[imailin 0]

Hi guys, I am about to petition my parents and my fiancé. I need affidavities of support for all of them separately. Based on the poverty guidelines of 2010 the minimum requirement for a household of 5 (my case when petitioning all these people) is $32,237.00 and my last income tax gross income was $32,981.85. Even thought I am at the border line this income will qualify. But what about if now in 2010 my income is much less than this amount? Because of hours cuts I think my yearly income barely reaches the $25,000.

My 2007 was $30,000

My 2008 was $28,000

my 2009 $32,237.00

do I still need a co sponsor? if so, in the event I have one (a friend of my that has a paid off house valued at $200,000) Can I used her for all the petitions? can she co sponsor 3 people?

Thanks!

To be safe, I think you should get additional sponsors/co-sponsors. But you still need to submit your IRS papers the past 3 years,being the petitioner.

I believe you only have to submit previous year tax returns. other 2 years you can just put the amount on the form

and you should definitely find someone to co sign with you. u have to be 125% the poverty line.
