Hi everyone -

My wife, the petitioner, is filling out the I-864 for my CR1.

In Part 6, Section 5: Current Individual Annual Income, it says to state your current individual earned or retirement annual income. We can easily do this, however the issue is that once we move to the USA, she will no longer have this specific source of income (i.e. her job). If this is the case, what do we list - her current income in the country we live in, or something else?

Thank you!

We had this same situation when we filled this out at the beginning of March. I put down my current income even though when we move my income won't be continuing. It was unclear to us as well, hopefully that doesn't get us an RFE as the instructions didn't say what to do in our case. What we did as well is use my mother as a Joint Sponsor just in case, even though our Assets more than meet the requirments. We also went overboard on supporting documents as well. We just wanted to make sure we covered ourselves. It's been over a month since we submitted it.

Thanks for the reply.

I think in the end, we will state her income as 0.00, and indicate it as such in the cover letter that even though she has an income, it won't continue in the US. In any case, we also have a joint sponsor who will more than cover us for the sponsorship.
