Either by the last tax return, or by 6 months of pay stubs and an employment letter. The levels you must meet are given here: https://www.uscis.gov/system/files_force/files/form/i-864p.pdf?download=1

Ok, thank you. So they are basically asking the petitioner to show how much money they make yearly? 

Good morning everyone. can anyone tell me how this is determined? (The petitioner must make at least 125% above the U.S federal poverty) 

Thank you.

Thanks again. this information is so helpful. and the responses are so fast.

Ok understood. but if i am presenting photos of my relationship is there a certain way to attach them to the form? or do i just present them in an envelope that is signed an labeled?

And definately anything you need help with feel free to ask. Someone here will know the answer.

Thank you for the fast reply. I read through it and there was nothing about using pictures as evidence, so that's not necessary I guess? or did i miss something???

OH and did your process really only take about 5 months total? 

Hi everyone,

I am about to begin my filing process and i need some guidance.

for one, i know we are suppose to present some kind of evidence of our relationship. But how exactly do we do that and in what form? 

Do we send pictures with our i-130 form? or is there a special way to present evidence? 

we may have a lot of questions as we go along so any advice would be greatly appreciated 

so thank you all in advance.
