a question about the Affidavit of Support for K1 visa...

[lirwin2000 0]

hi, i just have a quick question regarding support.

our situation is...

beneficiary : a UK citizen.

the petitioner : a US/UK dual national, lived in the Uk all his life, moved to the US 2 weeks ago by him self to look for work so he can be the sponsor on the Affidavit of support. he has worked for the past 3 years in the UK and earned over the poverty line and filed tax returns to the US on his foreign earned income so we have transcripts and stuff for previous years.

we have a couple of questions, he is currently looking for work and freelancing at the moment. working freelance would make over the poverty line for the year but how do you prove it and is this a possibility for it?

and lastly, the only other person we could ask to become a joint sponsor has already filed an affidavit of support for another family member. is it possible for this person to support 2 different people at the same time?

thanks for any help.

I am not sure about the freelancing, because it is not guaranteed income. But then, what job is these days? If you can prove the income by tax returns, and ideally some letters from the people comissioning him that they'll do so again in the next years, that would be good. A co-sponsor would definitely be better and easier though: yes, the person can co-sponsor two or more people no problem, as long as they have the income to support their household and all the people they are sponsoring.

Tax Returns would be a good idea.

Does he have any invoices for work done and evidence of them being paid?

Does he keep books and does he have an accountant?

These may help.
