Hi,

i went through with my husband to get a approval for the I-130, now we're getting ready with the Affidavit of Support and got stuck.

I'm Self Employed (Having a Retail Store on Sint Maarten), so i support him, and he takes care of his sick mother (she had a stroke).

So i support him financially.

Since he has no income, he can't really be my sponsor, and his family doesn't want to co-sponsor because of their religious believes.

What options do we have? Can they use my income that is generated in a foreign country?

What can we do?

Best Wishes

Patrick

He has to be your sponsor.

Co sponsor does not have to be a family member.

I have never heard of a region being an issue to sponsorship.

Any US citizen or Green card holder can be a joint sponsor. The US citizen petitioner will always be the primary sponsor regardless of income. Your foreign income would not be accepted.

Find a another person to be a joint sponsor. Have them read the sponsor's contract and understand the scope of liablity. They are not signing on to guarantee your debts if you run up big credit card bills, etc. And they would be in 2nd position behind your spouse who will be the primary sponsor. So if someone was to get sued, it's your spouse.

Yes it would be.

Does he have friends in the USA that would be willing to be a joint sponsor?

Do either of you have assets you can use towards the I-864? (preferably liquid assets.)
