I 864 QUESTION

[smangat95 0]

Hello,

 

I am almost ready to file for my AOS. I am the beneficiary and am adjusting from TN status. My husband is the US citizen. For the 2020 tax year he made approximately 29 00 (using the adjusted gross income (line 11 of his 1040). For 2021 - halfway through the year he switched from part time to full time. I estimated his current expected annual income to be 31 500 (using his last gross income on salary, then multiplying his new hours worked per week for the remainder of the year). 

 

My question is with his employment income verification letter it state he is now working full time (40 hours) per week with his hourly pay rate. This amount equals roughly 35 000 year. Will they look at this and think there is a discrepancy from multiplying these numbers and thinking 35 000 does not match the 31 500 we had? I was thinking of putting a comment in the additional information, that the 31 500 is the expected annual income for 2021. Because he switched from part time to full time, the expected annual income is 35 000 for 2022.

 

Or should I just put the 35 000 for expected annual income?

 

Thanks for all of your advice, because of this forum I have felt confident to do all of this paperwork on our own!

That's not how you calculate current income. You use his current wage/week and multiply by 52. It doesn't matter if they had a lower wage for the first 6 months. Current Annual Income is different from Current Year's income.
