Hello,

My mother-in-law (LPR) petitioned for her son (F2A).  NVC is asking her for I864.  Since she does not have any income, I will be completing as joint sponsor.  I more than enough to meet the poverty guidelines.  Since my wife and I file taxes jointly, I was going to have her complete I864A.  Two questions:

1.  Would my wife also be considered a sponsor and would that change my selection in Part 1, 1d (I am the only sponsor) to 1e (I am the first/second of two joint sponsors?

2. On the I864 and I864A where it asks for "my total adjusted gross income", the tax transcripts combine both my spouse and I.  Would I list what it has for both of us on both forms?

I can tell you that quickly after my wife (K1) and I got married, she applied for a credit card with our credit union using me as a co-applicant. When she applied she did not and still does not have a job and was approved for $1000. Its been about 4 months and she just received a letter indicating that they were raising her credit limit. I should mention that the card is NOT secured.

I believe that your results may be better using a credit union versus a bank. Also, your partner has a great credit score which can only help.

Congratulations!! If you have any questions about how it all works going through the embassy in abu dhabi drop me a line. We got our k1 there earlier this month.
