AOS Interview Question

[xxYou 0]

I have a question regarding our AOS interview and our I-864 and I-864A documents.

A little background, I do not make enough to be a sole sponsor of my wife and my parents each filled out an I-864A to be my joint sponsors. With my two parents there is plenty of income to ‘support’ my wife but I want to make sure I have everything to sufficiently prove this.

Our interview date is drawing near and I want to know if I should bring my parents 2007 W2’s and tax return (I submitted their 2006 info when we filed)? Also should I ask my parents to get a letter of employment from their employers? Should I get copies of their pay stubs?

I am not currently employed, I am receiving workers compensation while attending college and my wife is also a student so we do not have much income.

Yes. They will want up-to-date information to prove that your parents are able to support you.

Should I have originals of my parents W2's and tax returns? Or will two sets of copies be good enough?

I think copies would be fine per the I-864 instructions, but it might not be a bad idea to have originals of all your documents when possible. I have a packet of all original documents and a packet of copies of all those documents.
