Never mind, I understand the mistake now. Thanks for pointing it out!

Hello, what was the mistake? I'm in the same boat. 

I filed my taxes married filing separately. my spouse is not in the usa and never worked or never had us income. 

I did not include my spouses income (foreign) but i filed as married. 

Did i make my tax wrong?

That is the correct procedure.  You filed correctly.  Spouse's foreign income (not continuing after immigration) should not be entered on an I-864.

The OP whose topic you've  hijacked made the mistake of including his foreign spouse's income that will not continue in the USA, on his I-864.
