NVC i-864ez, part 4 sponsor household

[Eagle76 1]

hello, I will be submitting i864ez for wife and stepchild. the one for my wife, letter C "your dependent children under 21" do I check that box for my stepchild? is my stepchild considered my dependent? for purpose of this form ? I would think the total household size would be the same for both forms 3? thanks

Hey from my understanding u can only use i864ez if you're sponsoring one immigrant... Someone correct me if I'm wrong, it seems you're sponsoring your wife and child?

Please do not use 864 ez because you need to file i864. 864ez is for only one immigrant but in your case you have 2 immigrants, wife and baby. Your form will be rejected. Edited August 3, 2015 by nilx25

Iread since both the beneficiaries are immediate relative each will have their own visa petition...separate visa petitions.....is that right??

Did you file two I 130? One for wife and one for child. If not than your wife is intending immigrant and your child is derivative beneficiary. You do not need 2 I130 if you are us citizen. Do you have separate case number for wife and child.

I did file 2 i-130 for wife and stepchild...both approved and now at nvc...I am starting to work on the i864...and thought I could use 864ez.

There are no derivative beneficiaries for Immediate Relatives. Two petitions (and two Affidavits of support) are needed if he is a US citizen.

I am us citizen...total household on both i-864ez forms would be 3?? Is my stepchild my dependant?

[MarinaMaya 3]

Since both of them didn't immigrate yes then on both forms household size will be 2. (Assuming there is nobody else besides you , your wife and your child.)

i do have to include myself in houseldsize size....it reads yourself and person you are sponsoring...but my question is my stepchild considered my dependent on my wife i864ez form?..i will be sponsoring both wife and stepchild..

[MarinaMaya 3]

as I said, household is 2. on one of them it will be you and your wife.

on the other it is you and your stepchild. Each time the number is 2.

On my wifes i864ez total household would be 2 (me & wife), I should not include stepchild?

but my stepchild's 864ez total would 3 (me, wife, & stepchild), it says to include spouse if it was not included first line.

This is a bit confusing to have different household sizes...has anybody filed 864ez for spouse/stepchild?? please do not want to make any mistakes and delayed my cases.

thanks

Yes this is how you would send it. On the wife's it would be 2, and on the stepchild it would be 3. The step child is not a dependent until after immigration.

Instruction says only to include people who is already immigrated and living with you plus the person you are petitioning on that particular form.

So it will be 2 in both cases.
