Affidavit of Support - Co Sponsor "In Transition" from Perm Resident to Greencard

[EdenG 3]

Hi Everyone,

Just another question, but if someone I know is in the transition stage (applications) of attaining their green card from permenant residency, can they still be my co-sponsor?

Thanks!

Eden

A permanent resident has a green card. You need to explain a little better, I'm sorry.

A permanent resident has a green card. A green card holder has permanent residence. There is no transition.

Oh, sorry. I meant a greencard holder to full citizenship. They are going through the naturalization process, so I'm wondering if they are able to be my co sponsor regardless of their current status which is in transition from greencard to full citizenship.

That's no problem.

When you submit the I-864 for the joint sponsor include the proof of whatever their status is on the day you send the package as well as indicate that on the form, citizen or LPR.

If you were to submit the form now, you would submit a copy of their GC. If on the day you send the package, they have taken the oath of allegiance and received the nat. cert. then you would submit a copy of that.
