AOS Combined Income

[hell0w0rld08 18]

Hello,

 

We are preparing for our interview next Tuesday and I am wondering if we can combine my income with my spouses income?

 

If yes, what form do we fill out to combine the income?

From what visa your wife want to adjust the status from?

If she is legally earning the income, then technically yes. Although, is there a reason you need to do so? The initial I-864 filed with the I-485 would need to at least meet the minimum requirements in order to get to the interview stage.

The IO makes the final call, but unless there has been a change in circumstances (i.e. you no longer work), generally it's just complicating matters if your income is sufficient by itself.

 

No form is needed for adding the income of a spouse as the intending immigrant (normally it's an I-864A). She does need to show evidence of the income (pay stubs + employment letter generally), as well as evidence that it will continue from the same source (generally an employment letter stating it is a permanent position is sufficient).

I make about $29K a year and want to add a little bit more income.

 

For the both of us and no kids.

If you want to have a new I-864 with both incomes ready, that's fine. But no need to present it unless asked.

ok got it!

 

do we both need to fill out the I-864 or how do we go abouts in combining the income?
