I plan to file an i-130 for my husband. Currently I am residing in the states and have been here for almost two years. I met my husband when I was going to school in the philippines andgot married before I left. We havean 18 mos old who was born in the us. I am a regular shift manager at mcdonalds and I need to bring my husband here to help me out. I am cuurently studying to take nclex rn. The issue I have is im think im not making enough to. Be able to sponsor him. Please help? what should I do?

Moving to spousal visas forum as USC is filing spousal visa for husband.

You would get a second job to make the needed amount for a family of 3 or you would find a co-sponsor that can make the required amount.

First, do you meet the Poverty Guidelines for your family size? http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf

If not can you get a co-sponsor? I would suggest reading the guides for better understanding of the petition process http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide1

Anyone who is a US citizen or PR of the USA who meets the income requirements for their family + the immigrant.
