So confused with i-864

[jp8734 6]

Hey,

My wife (US Citizen) is filling out i-864.

In part 6, question 3-12, it asks income she uses from other person in household.

I am a h1b holder and currently make money.

I know I can be listed on it.

But my question is, do my name and salary have to be there when she has a job and makes more than 125%of the poverty line?

And if my name has to be on it, will I need to fill out i-864a with all supporting docs?

So, are you telling me that I need to leave 3-12 on part 6 blank?

What about question 15? Do I only put down my wife's?

Put just your wife's information and information about other sponsors that are sponsoring you. If you don't have any other sponsor just put your wife's information and leave the question in blank, or better, put None or N/A.

If your USC petitioner/sponsor meets the income requirement, then you do not have to be listed as contributing your income to the household income total.

If you wanted to include yours, then you do not need an I-864A as the intending immigrant, but you would need proof that the income will continue from the same source once you become a permanent resident. The I-864 instructions has details about including the intending immigrant's income.

Incorrect. If they are in the US working legally and their income will continue from the same source once they become a permanent resident, then they can add their income to the USC petitioner/sponsor's I-864. Please read the I-864 instructions.
