Include I-864 from joint sponsor just in case?

[pat7755 2]

Hey,

Im about to send in aos. I am the primary sponsor for my k-1 wife. I have only filed one tax return last year as it was not necessary previously because I was a full time student. On that tax return i made 14,500. So far this year I have made about $16,500 and have a letter from work stating I will make around 20,000 this current year. This information was used on my affadavit at the k-1 interview and they asked no questions and I didnt need a joint sponsor. I have a joint sponsor but would rather not use them If i dont need to. In the case my I-864 and earnings is deemed insufficient on my wifes aos package, will they deny the application or ask me to get a cosponsor? Should I include a joint sponsors i-864 or should I wait to see if they ask for it? Thanks

No, they shouldn't deny it, they would just send you an RFE asking for a joint sponsor if they feel that you don't make enough. You are over the minimum amount so you should be ok. To be on the safe side and avoid an RFE for sure, you can send in the joint sponsor docs if you want.

I think you will be ok regardless though.
