Hi, we are just starting to think about filing the I-130 etc to bring my husband to the USA. We BOTH currently live in turkey and I am not working. What are the monetary requirements for I-864? Can I use my savings to meet these requirements since I do not have a job? Obviously once we move to the USA I will have a job, but we want to continue to live together in turkey until we both move to the USA together. 

Thanks for your help!

You can use savings, all detailed on the form.

You can use savings and other assets provided they are 3 times the amount that would be needed in income. 

 

Have you read through the information on what you need to do to demonstrate your intention to re-establish domicile in the US?

Hi JFH, I have not read through the info on re-establishing domicile in the US yet since we are really really just starting this process... my first step was just figuring out if I had to be living in the USA during the process or if we could live together in turkey until the move. And it appeared only the monetary requirement could possibly cause a problem. Is there something I'm missing?
