what about co-sponsors?

[hyacent 0]

Well this very hard for me I need a co sponsor but no one wants to help me. My family says it will be a burden on them and my friends say they dont know my fiance. Its just all around hard for me. I dont make enough money so i need help. Everyone is skeptical I dont know what to do. Is there any organization that could help me with this?

What burden? Do they understand the affidavit?

they feel that they would have to take care of him if something goes wrong

That is not what they are signing up for.... To begin with you need to educate them, begin by reading Section III of the I-134 instructions....

London is a pretty easy Consulate to convince on the public charge issue. Is there a reason you won't or can't just get a better paying or more full time job, in order to qualify?

I don't know your family or their thinking on this but often when families react this way, it's because they are looking to their family member to step up and make themselves responsible for themselves and their own adult decisions. I find it admirable parenting.

I wouldn't even do it for my own kids. If they are big and grown up, and want to marry, then they had better be able to afford it. Especially since yu don't know him/her all that well...that would even be a bigger red flag.

Who's getting mad?

I agree with the above posts... if you can't find a job that pulls in the income, then your best bet is to discuss it with your family more. Have they met your fiancee? Perhaps after spending time with him, they would feel differently. If they still don't agree to co-sponsor, you may have to wait. A common phrase around here is "no money = no honey!"

Please don't use assumptions such as:

if you would not help your children i bet you'd help a total stranger

Basically all you need is a full time job at McDonalds. Now I would not call that living, as you would be lucky to live in a trailer park and survive. This would put even more pressure on a marriage and the long term outlook would not be too good. This could possibly saddle your co-sponser with a big liability for many years. I would in no way accept that responsibility and only responsible ppl shold get married.

Get some training and get a better job.

I would never ask a friend to be a co-sponser. This wold be a major infringment on any friendship, any any "friend" that would ask me to do that would no longer be considered a friend.

You're making wild assumptions that have no bearing on your original post whatsoever. I would help a family member or a friend over a random stranger ANY day of the week.

Anyways, about your situation, I don't know what else we can tell you. If you can't get a co-sponsor, you can't get a better paying job, and therefore can't financially support your fiance, then you guys can't get the visa.

I would first of all explain to your parents what the I-134 is. Do you fully understand what it is? If not, read it thoroughly.

Good luck hyacent

If anybody is getty mad, it's you. Sometimes the best help we can give is to provide the facts and any advice we might have. We see college students with temporarily low funds arranging for parents, family or friends to co-sponsor quite frequently. We also see parents, family and friends who are unwilling to do so. I think it's best to respect their reasons for their own decisions.

A person in your shoes, who cannot support a spouse at this time, has some life decisions and adjustments to make. You've said it's hard for you and you need help, and that the job situation is bad. The solution to all that is in your hands. You are a citizen of the United States of America. As such there is ample opportunity for you to make your own way in life. Some of the decisions will be difficult and may require patience and sacrifice before seeing the hoped for reward.

Good luck in making and implementing those adult decisions. They are yours and yours alone.

In short, I know of no organization with the purpose to help otherwise able adults bring to the US foreign fiances they don't qualify to sponsor on their own.

Perhaps if you are involved with a church, it could be a cosponsor. Perhaps your parents know of some reason why your fiance shouldn't be coming over...no job, no education, etc. etc. Otherwise, until he needs a sponsor for his green card, there is no burden on your parents or any other cosponsor...unless he gets into trouble of some kind.
