Child support is not counted towards income that could be used to meet the financial requirements for sponsoring someone as child support is supposed to be for the care of the child.

Just as the topic title states, where do I enter the income from child support I receive on the I-864 Form? Do I put it under "income you are using from another person who was counted in your household size"? If I did that then do I have to fill out Form I-864A for my daughter? Please help ASAP. Thanks!

You add it together with the rest of your income and list the total amount as your individual annual income where it asks. You will need to provide a copy of the court order for the child support and banks statements to show the actual amount that is deposited each month.

Child support is not counted towards income that could be used to meet the financial requirements for sponsoring someone as child support is supposed to be for the care of the child.

This is completely incorrect.

Child support is for the child I just put it as the child's income since it's income for them.

Child support is paid to the parent to care for the child. You do not list it as the child's income. It can be added in as part of the total current income amount for the sponsor.
