k1 Questions About the AOS I-485 & K1 Visa

[Zoryana 0]

Hello! 

I (a US Citizen) am helping my husband (who came here on a K1 visa, and got married within 90 days) fill out his AOS. (I-485) 

On the application, there is a question that says this. 

Quote

7. Af davit of Support/Con rmation of Bona Fide Job Offer or Request for Job Portability Under INA Section 204(j) (Supplement J)

Af davit of Support

1. Submit an Af davit of Support (Form I-864) if your Form I-485 is based on your entry as a ancé(e), a relative visa petition (Form I-130) led by your relative, or an employment-based visa petition (Form I-140) related to a business that is ve percent or more owned by your family.

 

 

What exactly is this? Im a little confused. Am I the US citizen supposed to fill this out... or is he supposed to fill this out? 

 

Thank you!

The USC petitioner needs to fill out an I-864 and provide supporting documentation of their income (tax return(s), paystubs, employment letter, etc.). This is submitted with the AOS application.

 

If their income is insufficient, then they need a joint sponsor to also complete an I-864 and provide supporting documentation.
