I Just Don't Know!

[RebeccaS 7]

What do I put down for on form I-864 and I-864A that asks about our current annual salary?

How am I supposed to know that if the year hasn't ended.

What kind of information are they looking for? What has anyone put down for this question who have already sent their AOS package?

Please help!!!!!

Thanks

Calculate how much you make during a week and multiply it by 52 to get projected current annual salary. That is one method.

They usually ask for the most recent you could put down for what you made last year, they also have an optional section where you can state the most two recent years as well. Download the Directions for the I-864 it usually guides you through it.

but calculate the totals BEFORE taxes are taken out. for instance, if you make $1000 / week, but the actual money you receive is $800, you would use the $1000 number.

you don't know your yearly salary?

She probably has an hourly position with a variable schedule. As others have said Rebecca, you can use last year's total earnings as an estimate for this year or calculate your weekly earnings x 52 weeks. Remember you're also going to need to include supporting documents with the I-864 (& I-864A if applicable) like tax transcripts, bank statements, and a letter from your employer confirming employment and your salary.

Ok thanks I got the idea and I appreciate your response but Sarah and Adnan you brought up another question I was wondering about. When I looked through the directions for the AOS package they want your tax returns and whatever but I don't read it anywhere saying that they also want your bank statements. Is this true. I mean I plan on sending employment letter, pay stubs and 3 most recent taxes (form 1044) and W2's. But do they also require you to send them bank statements. I wasn't aware that people did this until recently I heard from a family member that they may want them.

So sorry to shoot out answers at you guys but you guys have been such a help so I love you all for that.

Thanks

No bank statements needed.

Please ignore the above as it does not address the question being asked. Past income is not current income. The exception is the self employed.
