The charges were made after our divorce was actually finalized, and he had the furniture shipped to his address. (The CCs in question were furniture CCs with Ashley Homestore).

Sorry I'm actually the beneficiary so it would be me sueing him. Does your income have to be under $1,400 for a certain amount of months before that would go into effect?

Hello, not sure if there's a specific section on the forum this question would be better assigned to, but how enforceable is the I-864 when it comes to a sponsoring spouse? I understand that the individual (my ex husband in this case) would be responsible for either 10 years or 40 quarters in relation to the financial burden with US government means tested benefits, but can this obligation be applied elsewhere? My ex husband fraudulently took out a furniture credit card under my name whilst we were married (without my permission), which I'm currently in the process of disputing with the credit card company. All the charges he made were after our divorce was finalized (Oct 2020), but he set all the information, email, contact number etc under himself, so I wasn't really as informed as he already tanked my credit twice. I came to know the account existed, but I tried to be civil and have him pay it off before I closed it. I should have probably tried to resolve it sooner, but this was only the tip of the iceberg. Last month, he went kinda crazy and added more charges, despite me asking the company to freeze further spending. He "paid the accounts off", which the company confirmed a 0 balance and I closed them, only for the amount to bounce as insufficient funds. Long story short, I'm obviously disputing the accounts as fraud now, but in the case I don't win, and I have to sue him (which I would), would the I-864 be able to be used in court? Or does this only apply to means tested benefits from the government? Thank you.

Honestly it's probably because the majority of cases are purely to circumvent US immigration laws, that skip the line to be with your spouse. (Even though it's a legal process, it's still kinda shady when it comes to individuals intent). To completely have no ties back home and do an AOS from a tourist visa seems extremely convenient.

If I was in your shoes, I'd just be happy that the interview was scheduled so quickly. Some people have been waiting years. If your evidence is strong and your marriage is genuine, you have nothing to worry about.

Yes you are responsible. You signed the legally binding document to which you agreed to. That document isn't nulled just because it doesn't work for you anymore. Encourage the LPR to become a citizen after 5 years, that's the easiest for you to get off the hook.

Waiting 1 or 2 days doesn't really make a difference, you're going to be waiting 2 or 3 years for them to process everything anyway.
