Affidavit of Support Question - Household Income Abroad?

[superlori 2]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to these forums, so first of all, hello!

We are in the process of filing our I-130 (I am a US citizen living in UK, my husband is a UK citizen and we are moving back to the US).

Most questions I have have been answered by searching the forums, but I can't find the answer to this:

In Part 6, regarding annual income, I'm not sure what is expected. I work in the UK, do not have a job yet in the US, so my annual income is what I make here in the UK, correct? (Just transferred into dollars??) But my federal tax returns all state I make annual income of $0 because of the Foreign Income Exclusion. So...

1) Since it asks just below for my last 3 years tax return amounts, which are all $0, is it still correct that I put my UK income in the 'Annual Income' box? And

2) Do I then include my husband's annual UK income in the next part?

I do have a joint sponsor, by the way, my mother in the US, so I'm not worried about what amount of money I am including, I just want to do it right.

Thanks!!

Lori

Sorry to bump this, just want to know if anyone knows the answer? Would hate for the forms to be sent back because of a silly error!

Thanks!

I am looking for the answer to this myself, as I am living in Canada with my husband and sponsoring him to the states. I too have a co sponsor but am confused on the AOS, hopefully someone can help us!
