joint sponsor needed? (split topic)

[diaz1880 4]

I have a question if the last 3 years I didn't file much and now I started a new job making more than the requirements do I still need to have a co sponsor or can I do it on my own and what proof will I have to submit from my job ???

You don’t need a co sponsor. You still need your tax forms and make sure you give them a copy of your employment letter or pay stub. Made sure it reflects the company name and logo, your name and signature. It’s on the website.

Ok because some people are telling me that I still need a co sponsor so I was confused and wanted to really make sure.

If you currently make over 125% of the poverty level, then your income is enough.

 

HOWEVER, the purpose of the I-864 is to provide information as to whether the beneficiary is likely to become a public charge (and also make the petitioner liable for the benefits if the beneficiary needs them). If you've only had your current job for a short while, and previously haven't made that much, then it might be a good idea to find a joint sponsor.

 

On a side note: you are slightly hijacking the OPs thread (asking a different question)...the OP doesn't seem to mind, but it's good to make your own thread-it makes things easier to read.

Correct.  By interview time the farther OVER the poverty line your income is and the longer you've had the new job, the better.  I don't mean how much you've made this year.  I'm talking about how much your income is ABOVE or OVER the poverty line.  If you barely qualify, get a joint sponsor.  If you're current income is at least 50% over the requirement, go it alone.
