What's the question?

I'm sorry I've been asking this before but no one can actually provide a clearer answer for my query... here it goes... my husband is a US merchant marine he is a member of a union. A union where he got his job he doesn't have a permanent company because every time he's done with a particular work he will then go to the Union and finds another company to work with. So my question is what will he put on as his employer in I-864? will he be putting the latest company he worked with? And also been worrying about this, sometimes he just work for 4 months in a year but gaining some 28k as income would this be a problem considering the fact that he doesn't have a permanent company? But sure to have work anytime he wants as member of Union? Any help and opinion regarding this? thank you guys for helping me out... God bless...

If your spouse has secured a home mortgage or any other secured loan he will have provided this information. That would be how he would present his income / employment history for the affidavit of support.

I have a brother who was in the merchant marine for years. I will ask him how he documented his income for home mortgages, etc.
