co-sponsors

[ally and moh 3]

i may need a co-sponsor because i just divorced and went back to work recently (at the end of 2008). all of my financial history is tied to my ex - all of my bank accounts, my tax returns, everything. i only had income for dec of 2008, and of course i continue to work now. my mother offered to be the co-sponsor, but i was told that no one over the age of 55 can be a co-sponsor. are there age limits? if so, what are they?

There are no age limits to be a co-sponsor! The co-sponsor simply has to meet the income requirments.

Whomever told you this is very incorrect.

p.s.,

Is your income potential (based on your rate of pay) sufficient to meet the minimum qualifications? (You can use pay stubs to show your earnings potential and may not require a co-sponsor)

Are you removing conditions. If so there is no financial requirements.

no age limit, the requirement is the co-sponsor needs to have income to meet 125% of the poverty guideline...
