Joint sponsors spouse decline to sign form i-864A.

Joint sponsor makes sufficient funds independently (an MD), but files tax jointly with his spouse. nvc asked for i-864a from spouse but declined to sign.

Don't know anyone else who can be a joint sponsor. This is the only person we got. Would appreciate suggestion for best course of action. Thanks

Hello, I need the most recent info on this.

My fiance is a U.S. Navy, and he's currently living in the base barracks.

We're preparing for the upcoming interview at the U.S. Embassy in Korea right now, and we aren't sure if we have to provide the U.S. residence address to the interviewer and/or the physician at the clinic.

Since the interview requirements said he needs to submit his financial evidence that he can support me, he said we need to get the lease as a proof for the interview and other stuff.

But since he already showed that he is able to support me financially, can I tell the interviewer that he's living in barracks right now but we plan to get an apartment when I arrive to the states? And that I will stay at an inn or something while he's looking for a place for us to stay, if need be.
I just think it's a waste of rent money for each month for him to get a house when I won't even be able to stay with him.

Would this be an issue during the interview process and providing the U.S. address at the health examination?

Please help!

Thank you.

Hi,

I am fatima and i want to ask the average time for interview scheduling at Abu Dhabi Embassy after being Documentarily Qualified at NVC.

Hi everyone,

I m in the process of bringing my fianc e to the U.S. on a K-1 visa and need help determining the correct household size for the I-134 (Declaration of Financial Support) and later the I-864 (Affidavit of Support) once we re married.

Here s my situation:

I earn $22.55/hr from my main job and just started a 1099 side gig that brings in about $500/week.

Last year, I had surgery and was off for a month, so my income was around $38K. This year, I expect to make significantly more.

I have two children from a prior relationship. I pay child support, but they live in another state, and I don t get to see them currently. I don t claim them as dependents on my taxes, and we were never married.

My fianc e has a son, but he is not immigrating with her. He ll remain with family in her home country. We plan to bring him once she has her green card and we can jointly sponsor him.

Boundless Immigration told me my household size is just 2 (me + my fianc e), but I m not sure that s correct given the child support and her child abroad.

So my questions are:

1. What is my correct household size for the I-134 (while applying for the K-1 visa)?

2. What will it be for the I-864 after we marry?

3. Do I need to include:

My two children I pay child support for?

My fianc e s child, even though he s not coming now?

Any guidance or experience would be greatly appreciated. I want to make sure I m doing this right and avoid delays.

Thanks in advance!
