Taxreturn Paper 1040

[timmons 34]

Good morning,

my mother in law is my I864 Sponsor for the AOS.

I am in the process of gathering all my documents needed.

Today i received the copies of her W2s and 1040s.

I am not sure if we are in need of a different sponsor now, since she filed taxes with her husband together...

and what is Form 1099?

The 1099-MISC form reports the total amount of payments you receive from a single person or entity during the year you've provided services to them. Essentially this is similar to a W-2. If you work for someone (employer) you are considered their employee, you will get a W-2. With a W-2, taxes are deducted from your pay and your employer has to send those payroll taxes to the taxing authorities. If you're an independent contractor, you will receive a 1099-MISC. Which means you have received gross payments from services you've done for someone. You are responsible to pay your own taxes and self-employment taxes when you file your return during filing season. You will file this 1099-MISC under either SCHEDULE C (for sole sole proprietor), Form 1065 (partnership return), Form 1120/1120S if you are incorporated.

Well, I'm still somewhat new to the process. If your mother-in-law satisfies the income requirements on her own, then you don't need another sponsor. If she only satisfies them with her husband's income, then you'll need, I think, an I-864A to show that the husband agrees to contribute to the process.

The form 1099 is for income earned from other sources that work: interest, dividends, self-employment, etc.

So does that mean as long as her W2s of the last 3yrs are included (which exceed the 125%) but the 1040s are filed as a married couple, we do not need a I-864A ?

Only her husband received 1099s as far as i know. I guess thats irrelevant then?

Also is there an info sheet for employers i could print to present to my mother in laws employer?

Her employer refuses to hand us a paper that states that she is still employed with them etc. They are afraid they might get in trouble.... :/
