Hi,

 

I'm currently in the process of completing forms for the affidavit of support I-864. I'm a green card holder petitioning for my spouse and our child. 

I'm filling up the part 6 "Sponsor's employment and income". This part is asking if I'm currently employed. I was laid off my job on Dec 2019 prior covid. I filed my tax for 2019 so I have 2018 and 2019 tax documents.

Now, I'm claiming for unemployment benefits.

 

If I don't fill the blank saying that i'm employed. Is it automatically denied of visa for my petition? Please advice on what should I do or options to avoid this.

You are currently unemployed. This does not deny the petition for your family but you will need a joint sponsor.

Thanks for your answer. Do I submit the joint sponsor form the same time with the I-864? Or should I submit the I-864 first and wait for the USCIS to require me to add joint sponsor?

Submit them both together- you don’t want to wait for a RFE or worse get denied.
