Thank you everyone.
Hmm, ok so her husband is counted in the household size? The presents an issue. Im not sure if my fiance does too but i am assuming he will because he isnt working at the moment. Meaning, the household size would be 4 including me, so she would need to be making $29,000 to co-sponsor us.
She doesnt make that much. If it was only a household of 3, $24,000 then she could cover it...but that looks unlikely.

If your fiance gets a job and has been working for a bit before the K-1 interview, then he will just show a letter from employer and/or recent pay stubs to prove his current income meets the requirement. You have time before it is needed. You do not send the financials with the I-129F petition, which is filed first and needs to be approved before you can file for the K-1 visa.
If the mother makes enough for her own household size, which includes her spouse, anyone she claims as a dependent on her taxes plus you, then she can be the co-sponsor, if needed.
Thanks for replying guys!
And how do you define a dependent exactly? Im suprised her husband counts!

Hi There,
So I just joined up. I left the USA and my fiance only 2 days ago (for the second time after being with him for 90 days) and I am having a very rough time. Emotionally torn and stressed out. *sighs*
I am 20, my American fiance 24. We are hoping we can start the K1 process in about 6 months or so, but I am unsure if it would be possible...
He does not earn enough to meet the income requirement at the moment, as he has not worked really for over a year, he has been working with his Father trying to launch family business projects (without making much money). However his Mother works and makes a good salary. He is currently looking for a job, as am I too here in the UK.
His mother has enough money to sponsor us, but does her husband count as a dependant if he is not earning much money at the moment? They file taxes jointly so that makes me think he shouldn't count as a dependant. If that IS the case, then she might have made enough when the next tax year comes around to sponsor my fiance and I do we can start the process.
Another question though, if me and my fiance manage to find jobs and work for the next 6 months or longer... will this be enough to be approved?
Will they deny us even with a sponsor because my fiance has not worked much in the last 2 years? (his family went through bankruptcy several years ago so things have been tough.)
To be honest I am very worried and stressed... I want to see a professional but cant afford it. We are both young and rearing to work - we just want to be together and start our lives together. Being apart is making our lives and our careers very difficult.
Gosh! I'm all over the place. Thank you so much in advance everyone.
Financial questions please help?

Oh really? Well that sounds very good then in our circumstance. Thank you, it would make things much easier if she was able to sponsor us in place of a family friend or someone who isn't a relative.
As for work, yes we are both looking hard. I was working last year before visiting him again (short 8 month contract) and was in education before that. Also, he did work in the past but moved from Cali to Oregon so would need to do expensive re-training to go back into his previous field of work. We will work that out. Either way is is going to find work of course!
So... maybe she will be able to sponsor us after all if HER household size only consists of three (Her, her husband and me). Its all pretty confusing...
