Good day! Im under CR1. Were on AOS paying stage. My husband is a unemployed. He's receiving the disability compensation per month for around $ 1000. We dont reach the poverty line. We are needing a co-sponsor, that's his brother. They are living in the same roof. Now, my husband will be filling out I-864. My question is: What specific form does his brother need to fill up I-864? or I-864a. Does his wife need to fill up the I-864/a also? or his wife doesnt need to fill up any form, just my husband's brother? Need help.. wer starting filling out the forms now.

Thank u and God Bless!

If they are living in the same house, the brother should fill out the I-864a. I don't think his brother's wife needs to fill it out if you're not planning to use her income (maybe someone else can confirm?).

Thank u for answering sis. I actually dont have a plan to let her wife fill out the form. I wanna ask if the income to be revealed on his brother's income in I-864A has to be just his alone? My husband will reveal his income on I-864 anyway. So, separate ba talaga sila ng mgreveal ng income?

in my experience i got my step-dad to co-sponsor and since they filed a joint tax return my mom had to fill out the i864a form now they didnt ask this till the interview so maybe its better off to send the i864a with it now only if they filed jointly tho

yah im agree with jayson,they better fill out I-864a form now,coz they really ask u to submit that in your interview at USEM ,especially that they are living in the same house,and have joint income tax....in my case,this form causes the delayed of my visa,they ask me to submit it together with their W2 ..

Husband's brother as a joint sponsor should complete an I-864. If he (brother) meets the income threshold on his own, then it's not necessary for his wife to complete an I-864A, when the forms are submitted, he would have to include copies of tax returns with W2's to show that it is only his income that is being considered.

:thumbs:

The brother does NOT fill in the I-864- they may live together, but unless the brother claimed the other on their last tax return, the I-864A is inappropriate.
