Hi everyone,

 

We’re from california and we’re in the process of sending our application for Adjustment of Status. I have a question regarding this, I’m really hoping that you guys can help me out here. 

 

For a household of 2 the minimum is $21,137.

it’s only me and my husband. 

We’ve done some reserch and found out that we need to send his 3 consecutive 3 year Income tax Return. 

 

His 2016 is $20,070

his 2017 is $22,903 

his 2018 is $27,387

 

Our concern is his 2016 income tax did not reach the minimum for this year. Do we need a co-sponsor? If we need it, do we also need to send their 3 consecutive yr income tax or is it only the affidavit of support form? Please help me guys. I really need your help.  Thank you!

Hi, you have to send only one tax return:) 3 is just an option. You can do it if you want to. Also tax transcripts are better. But if you decided to send just tax return, make sure its complete one, not just a few pages.

Thank you fore replying. I appreciate it. But what if we decide to send those 3 tax returns? Since his 2016 didnt reach the minimum. Do we need a co-sponsor for that?

i believed the i864 states you only need to submit most recent tax return or transcript, but in the form you actually need to input the sponsor's last 3 years annual income.

 

according to your 2018 income, you dont need joint sponsor but decision is still entirely up to the immigration officer.

 

goodluck

No, you dont. IO cares about what you make NOW, not in the past.
