Sponsored person and affidavit

[cbunny 1]

I was wondering if the sponsored person (me) could figure in the Affidavit. There is space in the form to do so, but I was wondering what the conditions are. I've worked for an international organization for years and if I got my job permit they would like to hire me again. They've offered to write me a letter if needed.

My husband is unemployed right now and we're scared that even if he got a job right now it wouldn't be enough for Immigration or that they would maybe want to see more resources being that the job would be fairly new.

Would a job promise and my assets (money in saving account) help our case?

As long as he covers the 125% with the taxes from last year, you should be fine...(I learned that after getting a RFE since we do meet the requirements now and not last year)

Cash money always helps

The foreign fiance's income can NOT be counted on either affidavit (except when the foreign fiance has been

living with the fiance, married, and in the US for six months), however the foreign fiance's assets CAN be used if

they are readily convertible into cash. The USCIS is concerned ONLY about the US fiance's income/assets. (Note

that in other situations the foreign spouse's income MAY be counted on I-864 affidavit, such as foreigner in U.S.

on work or student visa who marries and then files for adjustment of status. IF the foreign spouse has LIVED IN

THE HOUSEHOLD of the U.S. spouse for at least 6 months, then his/her income CAN be counted. There are

NO situations involving fiance visa in which foreign spouse's income can be counted, as far as I know, when

interviewing for the fiance visa or when filing adjustment of status within 6 months of arrival in the US.)

I had to read a couple times. Well We've been married since March 10, 2012, and living together since mid April. By the time we apply we will be more than 6 months married and living together. I have a few cash assets, mainly $10,000.

Now, I've been here for over 11 years, with students visas, G-4 and recently a TN-1 visa which I have now overstayed since april. And like I said this international organization wants to hire me once I get my papers... so I guess that doesnt count for immigration?

ohhh and the biggie is that my hubs stopped working 2 years ago.. mid 2010.. and lived off of his savings, which of course now are running low and I guess he has a life crisis and can decide what job to get..

so frustrating!

It appears you qualify to use both your income and your assets on the affidavit. Your potential employment cannot be used however.

You canget all of the detailed instructions and the actual I-864 form here: My link
