Affidavit of Support/Co-Sponsor Question

[avol93 7]

Hi there 

 

I think I’m posting this in the right place. I am a UK K1 beneficiary.

 

So last year my fiancée, the petitioner, made ~$1000 less than the required amount on her tax return due to us traveling but since she’s been home she has acquired a new job that means she is now going to be making above the 125% thing. The previous years tax returns she also made above the required amount. 

 

She is sending me pay stubs, last three years tax returns and a letter from her employer - will London only take into account previous years? Or will they accept that in her new job she will be making the right amount?

 

We have a co-sponsor available if need be, is it possible to just take the extra form with co-sponsor info and give it to them at the interview if they question her ability to be my sponsor? Will I get that chance or will they deny me without asking if I have a co sponsor? 

 

All the affidavit stuff confuses me a bit which puts me on edge, I don’t find the forms the easiest to read and understand so would really appreciate any help!

If using income, current pay stubs and letter from employer should suffice to cover showing she makes more than the required amount. You can also supply as mentioned the previous years W2's to back up a basic constant income even if it didn't meet the requirements; but by time of your interview sounds like she would have been working with this employer for a bit (5-6 months) so that's a plus.

London allows you to self sponsor, easiest option.

Yes they will in London.

Skip the tax returns.Not needed/required  for a K1 London. They don't prove she can sponsor. London will approve on the employer letter. It's current income, not last years.

You can,  but I think you will find your fiancé will be accepted. This is going to be easier than you are imagining.

Thanks all! Just the responses I wasn’t hoping for haha 

eased my nerves a bit - I admit I am probably overthinking every little thing!
