Sounds like an I-864 question and perhaps answered in the "K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures General Discussion" section of this board. Have to say, when I met my wife and we wanted to get married, didn't expect anything like the I-864 and that form seems to contradict the entire action of the I-751. I mean the I-751 is suppose to discourage you as a USC sponsoring citizen from marrying an alien just to bring you into this country. But with the I-864, you are putting your head in the noose so to speak as even with a divorce are held liable for that person. And the I-864 is only the tip of the iceberg if you live in a state where prenuptial agreements are not recognized in a divorce court. A USC would be nuts to marry an alien for the prime purpose of bringing them into this country. But that isn't enough for the USCIS, have to provide all kinds of proof, and all over again for the N-400 to gain USC for that LPR that status wasn't easy to get in the first place.

Anyway, if you don't have enough bucks, can't even pass the first stage, so much for that old proverb where two can live cheaply as one. I just hired a good immigration attorney to handle all this stuff, did that after lots of checking, had other things to do, a job, my own kids, and the time I wanted to spend with my wife to be. But was a shock with first the I-864, then after all that to only receive a conditional green card with the same proof again for the I-751, then to have to go through the same stuff again for the N-400.

Sounds like 3,000 bucks per year is cutting it close, that's about 60 bucks per week or 12 bucks a day. But maybe not easy to do in todays economy.

Well, you have chosen to come here and to become a USC should never be easy. You have to earn it and prove(and pay) that you are eligible to be a USC.

I'm not at all sure what your talking about this not about a K1 I-864 I-175 or " don't have enough bucks, can't even pass the first stage"

This is a topic on 2008 Poverty Guidelines and my move from Hawaii to mainland ohhh and i'm doing a k3 so I think i'm in the right place?
