Household members to help with income - AOS

[iamtintontan 0]

Hello, all

It is okay to use your household members' income to help with the minimum income requirment, right?

My husband is using his mom, dad and sister's income to help with the minimum requirement (as household members) as they are living in one residence.

My question is what document should we use to prove relationship? my husband can use

His birth certificate to prove relationship with his mom and dad, how about his sister?

Thanks

You can use a birth certificate as well. In the birth certificate it shows the parents so if they have a parent in common that should be enough. I haven't personally done this but that's what I think.

You cannot combine incomes like that. You can only have one joint sponsor per person with a maximum of two on the petition if each was going to sponsor a seperate family member. You have three just for you....can't do that.

Oh so how do we do it? Ive read that u can use ur household member's income (household member meaning people living in the same residence as you). Do we need to get his mom as a joint sponsor and his dad and sister as the household member of his mom?

Pls advise me asap. Appreciate ur help

You may only use one of them as your sponsor. It doesn't work the way you're hoping to

Okay so lets say my husband's income is not meeting the minimum requirement, he is going to ask his mom to be his joint sponsor. Mom will file i-864 just like my husband.

Now, Mom is adding the income of the his husband (my husband's dad) to meet the minimum requirement. Dad will then become a household member of Mom. Dad will file i-864A.

Now in the i-864 of Mom, she will sponsor me and my son. I am the principal beneficiary and my son is my accompanying beneficiary. So Mom's household size will become 4 (me, my son, Mom & Dad - is that right?)

Now because my husband's income is not enough, is he asking his Mom to meet the household income? or is he just asking for help to meet the minimum requirement?

In the i-864 of my husband, what household size will he put? Does he need to put in 3 (himself, me

And son)? His income as of now cannot support a household of 3, not even 2.

And the Mom would be supporting a household of 4 (me, son, Mom, Dad) or should it be 5 (including my husband)

I am really confused. Pls enlighten me. Thank you!!
