USEM affidavit of support questions

[daisychain 0]

Hi everyone! I've decided to post here instead of the K3 thread because my question specifically caters to the US Embassy in Manila.

My husband just started on his new job a couple of weeks ago and I'll be having my interview on August 4. We already have his certificate of employment and from what I've gathered from fellow VJ members, the following should be notarized: letter of employment, paystub and bank statement.

We also have a co-sponsor (his mom) but from what I've heard, the USEM does not accept co-sponsors for k3. Is that true? If my husband does not meet the poverty guidelines, would it be grounds for visa denial? And would the fact that he just started on his new job be grounds for denial as well? He makes $13/hr.

Thank you all for your insights. =)

Hi there.Im not an expert.Since u said ur hubby just started on his new job and he makes $13 per hour....so thats $ 24,960 in a year no salary deduction yet from the taxes.

If he doesn't have kids that depends on him,and its only you whom he is going to sponsor,that means he is above the poverty line and he dont need co-sponsor.The CO will not deny bcoz their main concern is that you will not be a public charge and that ur petitioner able to support you.Eventhough he just started his new job..as long that he makes good money for you and him and meets the income for 2 people...you guys won't have a problem.

All he need is his notarize COE,pay stubs,most recent tax returns/tax transcripts,W2 and completed I-134 notarize.He dont need bank statement as long that he is above the poverty line.But you can have that too for assurance.

Hope this helps.Good luck!
