hi

you will file the i864 as primary sponsor, yes you mark 5. 1

now are you saying that you don't make enough and one of his parents will be your joint sponsor? if so that parent will fill his or her own i864 and will mark 5.1 on their own i864

Hi, thank you for your response. I'm under the impression I may make just around enough to meet the requirement. Whether or not I did I thought it might be beneficial to have his "source of income" considered since they presently support him. I know not to consider him as an adult child but I didn't know if it was better to include his income with mine if there is a way or have his parent (non-English speaker living in Russia) fill out an I864 of their own. In that case we would probably have to fill it out for her anyway. Hope that makes sense.

So I am filling out the I-864 to sponsor my spouse, he is currently in the country on an F-1 Visa until we are able to adjust his status after our wedding in December. Should I enter him as Part 5, #1 for "Enter the number you entered on line 7 of Part 3" since I do intend to sponsor him OR should I enter him as something else because his parents will support him financially and will continue to do so as needed (already his current financial resource)? Thank you.

My husband most recently returned to the US on January 2014 after holiday with his F-1 Visa. We married in December 2014. We are in the process of filling out I-130 and I-485. I am wondering since his Visa has not been adjusted to reflect his new status, will he need to apply for Advance Parole to travel? I began to fill out the document but it asks for dates of intended departure/length of trip etc. We do not have plans for him to go home yet but we would like to visit some time in the next year and I had just planned to turn this form in with application. Can I leave this section blank? Is it necessary for the form? Thank you.

You are a US Citizen?

Yes, I am a citizen.

Hopefully this is the right place to post this.. we just got married on the 16th of December. My husband has a working I20 valid through the next year. He came to this country on a F1 visa for school about two years ago. This is all pretty new to me so I am wondering how to begin filling out the proper forms and which ones to apply for.

Thanks in advance!

He's here on an expired visa. He's subject to deportation at this time. I'm not sure what you can do right now. If he *voluntarily* goes back to Russia, and then you start the paperwork to bring him back, you have the least chance of getting a penalty for overstaying a visa. If USCIS "notices" he's overstayed his visa, then they can apply penalties that may prevent him from returning to the U.S. for several years.

How's your Russian? Want to live in another country for a few years?

Keep reading. I'm sure that others will have help for you.

From the ice.gov website pertaining to F1 student visa:

"2.C. What if my F-1 student visa has expired?

You can stay in the United States on an expired F-1 visa as long as you maintain your student status. However, if you are returning home or traveling to a country where automatic revalidation does not apply, you must have a valid visa to return to the United States."

His I20 is still valid and he is still in school.

So my boyfriend is currently in the United States on his own F1 visa which he obtained to attend school here before we met, he has lived here for almost two years now. We have been dating for awhile and have discussed getting married. I was wondering what kind of process would we have to go through with him having a visa already (though the visa is currently expired). My main concern being that he would have to return to Russia while everything is processed which would be extremely detrimental to his school plans if it was for a number of months as I have heard is possible with a B1. Any advice or insight is so very welcome, I am extremely unsure of the best route and outcome. Thank you!
