Hey, can anyone give me some information if you are self-employed. Do they go by your adjusted income after deductions and expenses to configure your ability to sponsor your fiancée, or is it based on your total business income? Really need to find out! Please reply if you have an answer! Thanks!

Actually line 22 of the Form 1040...

The business is not supporting you but your fiance(e)... thus you cannot use the gross income of the business but only what is left over after the business pays its expenses

YMMV

Gross personal income, before adjustments. You must include schedule C (or 1099s) with your tax return but business income is not considered, it is shown as a source for your personal income. As Pay mentions above...line 22.

VERMONT! I Reject Your Reality...and Substitute My Own!
