Hello, we got married and sent our application recently and my wife is working from past 3 month only. We are not able to find any co sponsor can anybody help to do a co sponsor I can pay for it. Please help me out 

That is unfortunate, your wife will have to work longer to establish her income. Also places like grocery stores Amazon FedEx are hiring she can work two jobs. You have a year you can put application on hold. She will be able to increase her income and file her taxes. 

 

FYI - NO ONE is going to give a stranger their SSN, tax info, and paycheck stubs, and are responsible for I-864.

I wonder if you need a cosponsor, perhaps misunderstood the requirements?

If you are married you would need a joint sponsor.   There are plenty of ways she can increase her income.  Side jobs and gigs like driving or delivering food are very common.  You could also earn money and put it her US bank accounts and she can show that as an asset.

How much and how long does it take to be able to meet the assets that can support I-864?

It depends on the household size of the sponsor. I am sponsoring my husband and we have two children, so my household size is 4 and that means a minimum income of $32,750, I think.  

 

Here's the government poverty guideline calculator for I-864 you can use. 

 

When it comes to having liquid assets, it's a bit more complicated I think as you have to do something like divide the asset value by 4 or something.

For a spouse or child it is 3 times the amount in in I-864p for assets.      125% of the I-864p amount less the projected annual earnings times 3.   Lets say 125% of I-864p is $30,000 and she earns $25,000.      30,000-25,000=5,000 times 3 equals $15,000 in liquid assets.

DFC so you both live ourside the US and is the get come from USC (with foreign income)  or immigrant

recently married and recently filed for spouse!!  you have a year or more to get your ducks in order

USC should move and establish home and job in the US if outside so that income (unless will continue when moving to the US)

 

If not a DFC it is CR1

 

What country ?   very important 

 

please create a timeline  helps the VJ community with any questions you have (as you say recent and a joint sponsor may not be needed by the interview time depending on income and country and so many other factors)   

 

working 3 months means she will have 10 months of income by end of december and you will not have an interview till 2021 / plenty of time for a 2nd job or overtime or a better paying job

My understanding on the assets is that it needs to meet 3x the 125% poverty level based on household as well. For us, we are exempt from the I-864 for our DCF filing (hubby earned over the 40 quarter credits with social security while we lived in the US). The assets can be in bank accounts, property (that can be converted into cash within a year) and other investments (from what I've read).
