New possible cosponsor???

[mike42979 57]

Ooook so much drama, My father is willing to Sponsor my Fiancee but i have a few questions because currently i live in the house since loosing my job 2 weeks ago.

#1 what household size would my father have to have sufficient earnings for 3 people, him, my mom and my Fiancee or 4 including me although he doesnt claim me on his taxes?

#2 Can he be a sponsor if he owns his business but claimed enough to cover the poverty line for said amount of people.

#3 How does he prove his income under a sole proprietorship, will just tax returns be enough as he doesnt write himself a paycheck?

Household size of 3, no need to include you in the count if he doesn't list you as a dependant.

What is his adjusted gross income?

Forget it my dad doesnt qualify, just checked his return!

Ok now my sister might be willing to do it, Shes a nurse and is married with 1 child, she filed a joint return with her husband do they both have to qualify together because he lost his job a few weeks ago also. I believe she makes enough on her own but im looking into that now!

Im going insane and my options are dwindling!

It's not his AGI. If self-employed line 22
