Your joint sponsor must meet the income level for his own household plus the immigrant or immigrants he is sponsoring.  He answers the questions that are asked of him on the form.  There are no questions on HIS form about people YOU sponsored before.

Hi I have a question that I can’t seem to get an answer to anywhere. Regarding household size for a joint sponsor... USC who filed for my husband & 2young children from the U.K. My father is the joint sponsor who we will also be living with when we move to the US. For his household size, on the affidavit of Support, I see space to enter himself, his wife and my husband who he’s filing the affidavit for but what option would myself and my two young children (who will become us citizens upon entry) come under? As we will be living with him so would we not technically be part of his household size? Or would his household size just be 3? as I am a USC and my children will automatically become USCs upon entry. On my I-864 I have put myself, husband and the two children so household size of 4.

You don't see a place to count you and your children because  you and your children are not counted as part of your father's household size. You are not his dependents.

Thank you so much 😊 So my dads household size on the affidavit would be 3 (him, wife and my husband) and mine would be 4 (myself, husband and two children)? And it will be fine that we will all be residing at his address when in the US?

Right.  Living in a house, does not make one a household member, even if a relative.
