Affidavit of Support question

[bunsk2007 0]

It is only you lot who are keeping me sane tonight, I can tell you....

Monday interview looms ever closer.

Question about the I-1864 ans I-1864A.......I am so confused!

My US spouse has a written job offer in the US but as he has not started it yet he can't use that to be my sponsor can he- he would have to have the salary showing on his bank statements?

So- assuming I'm right about that, he can not sponsor me...

it is my mother-in-law that will.

Does my husband fill out a I-1864 then?

Or is it just my m-i-l that fills out the I-864?

Or does he fill out the I-864 and she fills out the I-864A?

Or do they both fill out the I-864?!!

If she is my only sponsor, is it a problem if she is in the US, but the USC is not yet?

And does it say on the actual I-864 that it needs to be notorised?

Thanks. I hope someone is reading this over the weekend and can help.

No he can't, it might help to prove domicile - that's about it.

They both fill out an I-864 - your Husband still has to be the primary sponsor. The I-864A would only apply if your Mother in Law is a household member.

"Each joint sponsor must execute a Form I-864 that is submitted in addition to the Form I-864 submitted by the petitioner or substitute sponsor. A joint sponsor does not have to be related to the petitioning or substitute sponsor, or the sponsored alien. However, a joint sponsor must otherwise meet the same requirements as a petitioning or substitute sponsor". link

No

No

Good luck with your interview

Thank you! We have answered it exactly as you were saying so I am very relieved...and strangely, looking forward to tomorrow! I guess I have a good feeling about it!

Thanks for all the help .
