AOS and DS-260

[_dbp 0]

Hi everyone. Petitioning my wife and daughter in the Philippines. Question for AoS.  Were in the process of submitting AoS and IV fee. I made almost $37000 last year 2019. I live with my parents and sister. 
Do i need to count them for the affidavit of support which will be total of 6. Or just 3 of us with my wife and daughter? 
 

Next is the DS-260. There is a delay on passport processing in the philippines for 2 months. And one of the question is Passport number. Do we have to wait for their passport to arrive before we fill up DS-260? 

Thank you! 🙏

Yes, include the parents and sister. If the passport number is a mandatory field, you will not be allowed to submit the form if it is blank.

Only if you are "giving" them over 50% of what you make. Household concept is not just about being physically under one roof.

 

if you are just living there, then your houshold is 3.

If you are in a hurry + you still have passport + it has decent expiration date (a few months), then you can use that one for ds260 app and once at the interview then you present a new one.

 

remember, ds260 is formally executed during interview, not the moment you submit it electronically to NVC.
