Yes you will now reference the poverty guidelines based on a family of 5.

Her pregnancy will have no adverse affect on your K-1 petition/process, other than increased cost to do so now.

This is incorrect. The household count only goes to 5 after the baby is born. While the baby is gestating, he/she is not counted. For the US government to count the unborn baby as part of the household, the US government would need to acknowledge the unborn as a person. And, I don't believe the US government is anywhere near to granting an unborn any status as a person.

If the unborn is counted in the household, wouldn't the unborn need an immigration visa too? Seems ridiculous to say the unborn counts for the household, but doesn't need a visa or passport to enter the US while still inside of mom.

The household count is 4; the US citizen petitioner, his two children, and his fiancee. When the baby is born, the household count will increase to 5.

No such thing as a co-sponsor; it's either a Joint Sponsor or Household Member.

A Joint Sponsor must make enough to support himself/herself, a spouse, any dependents, any immigrants the JT has a current I-864 obligation for, and the intending immigrant. Only the intending immigrant is counted in the determining the Joint Sponsor's household count from your family; the US citizen spouse/petitioner and the US citizen children are not counted. Generally, the Joint Sponsor does not live with the petitioner. The JT's income is not combined with the petitioner's income.

A Household Member does live with the petitioner. The household count is increased by the Household Member (if not already counted), his/her spouse, any dependents, and any immigrants that the HM has a current I-864 obligation for. The HM's income is combined with the petitioner's income.

Yes, this is complicated. This is why you will need to carefully go over how the household count is determined. Look at the I-864 and the instructions for it.

Without know who your "co-sponsor" has to count, there is no way to tell you how much this person has to make.

I guess I could have and should have been a bit more clear to the OP, and added 'once the baby is born' so as to avoid the wrath of those VJ members that are eager to pummel others for lack of clarity or the slightest error. So I take responsibility for lack of clarity in my post.

We all know the current household count is 4. No one is counting an unborn child for purposes of determining the Poverty guide lines, or implying such.

What really "seems ridiculous" is the way you saw fit to make your point, with your silly lecture referencing gestation and the U.S. govt position

on the unborn. Your last sentence of all of that drivel was all you needed to convey your point, which I happen to agree with, the rest you could've saved.

You conveniently overlooked "Her pregnancy will have no adverse affect on your K-1 petition/process..." now comprehend that as you may. Obviously I understood the current household count stands at 4 and not 5. The first portion of my comment pertained to 'once the baby is born.'

Wow. I didn't mean any offense. Sorry you are taking it that way.
