proof of above 125% of poverty line

[Minori 111]

Hello,  need your advice!!

 

I’m really worried about our financial situation to prove above 125%.

I’m a K1 holder entered USA April 11, married April 15, filing for AoS now. My husband works only per 16-20hours per week, and we don’t have much savings. Our house hold is 4, us plus his son and my son in elementary school. My husband gets $7,000 as social security for his son lives with us half of week.

 

My husband will work 40hours per week starts next week only for a month to get a letter from his work place and borrow some money from his brother temporarily to get bank balance certificate, but I saw some information that need 6 months pay statement and 12 months bank balance certificate. Would it be useless what he is trying to do? 

 

My husband’s brother was a co sponsor when we applied for K1, but I dont think we can find a co sponsor who willing to do it for 10 years. What should we do...

 

thank you in advance,

What exactly is he trying to do? Just work more for a month to get his paycheck larger to make it seem like he makes more than he really does? That both won't work and is quite deceitful.

 

Having somebody just plop money into an account is also misleading and will not work. IOs see this every day...they will want to see that the money is actually available for their use and was not just acquired for immigration purposes then being returned. That defeats the purpose off requiring it if a simple loan was a viable solution.

 

There is no 10 year limit on the I-864. There are a number of criteria, but I'm assuming the one you are referring to is the 40 quarters of eligible work credits. This could take less than 10 years or could be forever (i.e. if one decides not to work).

Hi,

 

You will need a Joint Sponsor.

 

USCIS will be looking for REGULAR, NORMAL, and RELIABLE INCOME.  

A month of suddenly meeting the "annual income" based on one month before filing the I-864 is NOT REGULAR, NORMAL, OR RELIABLE.

A temporary loan to suddenly meet the I-864 requirement will not work because a loan is not your assets; it belongs to someone else.

USCIS is not stupid.  They recognize all the common tricks that people do to suddenly meet the I-864 requirements.

You are better off finding a qualified Joint Sponsor than try to trick USCIS.  You will not like the consequences of trying to trick USCIS.

Thank you for your comments. Yes, it’s quite deceitful... 

My husband will be able to work more than 6 months, but can’t submit for AoS right now... 

I now wonder if we can include my income from my country.

Is your income from your country continuing now that you are in the US?

Yes, it’s continuing, but where Should I state about that on I-864?

Thank you so much! We decided to apply  without no cosponsors asap, I’m afraid of I-94 expires while we correct documents and find cosponsors now. We will get RFE, but will be able to save money with my income from my country while my husband works full time and more than 6 months...
