My parents were given 221g slip because I was under 125% poverty limit but my brother in law filled I 864A as household member who live in same house and has good income. They asked us to fill 864 for joint sponsor and 864A for his spouse. My question is that my brother be joint sponsor again. Can he add my income as 864A to show more income? Consulate kept my 864 but gave back brother in law's 864A form back. I am not sure why my sponsor was rejected despite 100k in bank account. Any advice greatly appriciated please.

Your BIL cannot file an I-864a to add his income to yours. Read the instructions for Form I-864a. He cannot be your household member because he does not have the requisite family relationship with you or your parents (the Joint Sponsor). This is the reason why his I-864a was rejected.

He can file the I-864 to be the Joint Sponsor. His spouse can file an I-864a to add her income. Under this scenario, your income is not added to theirs.
