Non-Immigrant visa affidavit of support

[etrangais 926]

Can I withdraw the affidavit of support after the visa has been issued?

I sponsored a relative 4 years ago and they were granted a 10-year visa.

They came to the US and went back with no issues.

Due to personal reasons, I would like to withdraw my affidavit of support since I don't want to be associated with them anymore.

Now, is there a procedure to follow to withdraw the affidavit of support?

You don't need to withdraw anything as you cannot sponsor anyone for a B2 visa so your affidavit or whatever document you gave to this person was useless and not needed/not used.

If you mean they received a 10 Green card, the following applies:

Per USCIS:

"When you sign the affidavit of support, you accept legal responsibility for financially supporting the sponsored immigrant(s), generally until they become U.S. citizens or are credited with 40 quarters of work. Your obligation as a sponsor also ends if you or the individual sponsored dies or if the individual sponsored ceases to be a lawful permanent resident and departs the United States."

 

If they received a visitor visa, then you are under no obligation.

Why are you muddying the waters with talk of a green card? Topic title says non immigrant visa, the post says 10 year visa which is standard for a B2, says the person entered and exited the USA, been posted in the Tourist Visa forum.. unnecessary and pointless information you are posting.

B1 tourist visa????

no

they didn't  need affidavit of support from u to begin with (as said above)

and they applied for the visa and had to prove ties to Morocco

it is their responsibility / not yours

just don't invite them to stay in your home

The visa wasn't issued based on an affidavit of support that you provided.......therefore, it won't be revoked based on the lack of some AOS you might have provided....their visa is outside your scope of responsibility or concern.

Thank you all

Easy to miss, as the OP asked about an affidavit of support, which is not a thing for tourist visas.  Somehow this asinine myth persists.

Your affidavit of support in this context is meaningless
