Form I-864 Affidavit of Support

[shyderalirizvi 0]

Hi,


My wife (petitioner) currently works a part time job in US and i don't think she meets the minimum requirement of 125% of the poverty guideline as she works just 3 days a week on 14$ an hour.

So we are thinking to make her father (whom just retired from Intel after 25 years of his service) our co-sponsor,

My question is what are the documents that are needed for a co-sponsor other than the tax returns. And should my wife and father in law file I-864 or I-864A?

Thanks!

p.s. our case is in NVC and they soon will require the affidavit of support document thats why I am really concerned as i do not want our case to be delayed just because of this.

Your wife will fill out form I-864; your father-in-law will file I-864A.

If your father-in-law is not currently employed then just keep in mind that he will need to have assets equal to 5-times the difference between your household income and 125% of the poverty line.

So to summarize, you will need:

1. I-864 filled out by your wife.
2. Tax Returns + W2 forms or Tax Transcripts for the most recent year (past 3 years is better).
3. OPTIONAL, but good to have - 6 most recent paystubs from your wife.
4. OPTIONAL, but good to have - Letter from your wife's employer stating what her current salary is.
5. Your father-in-law's most recent tax returns + w2 form or Tax Transcripts (past 3 years is better).
6. Proof of your father-in-law's assets (statements from his brokerage or bank statements showing his savings, etc.).

I think both your wife and father-in-law have to fill out an I-864 each. although it's true that your father-in-law is a household member, but in this case, he is a joint sponsor, so he will have to fill out an I-864 himself. otherwise, everything else is correct.

so my father in law has to file an I-864 and an I-864A too?

Thank you for your answer!

just an I-864, not I-864A.
