I-864

[jasa 0]

So, hi, I'm new. (Just submitted the I-130 with approval with all you guys help. Now on to the I-CR).

I'm trying to prepare ahead of time, I know I need to submit 3 years of tax reports to prove that I have 125% over poverty level in order that my husband will not be a public charge. Right.

The problem is the last 2 years are fine. Three years ago though I didn't make enough to be 125% over the poverty level. What should I do? Do I need to find an additional supporter?

Finding an additional supporter is not going to be a problem, it's just the issue of whether I need it if now I am 125% over the poverty level, but wasn't 3 years ago.

Thanks

Technically specking the most current year is what they really want to see.

Technically specking the most current year is what they really want to see.

Exactly - your current ability to earn at least the minimum is their primary concern. Even this (current income) is based not just on your most recent year's income tax return but on current pay stubs and (if available) letter of employment as well.

Add a notarized cover letter explaining you tax/income situation and evidence as to why your spouse won't become a public charge. This is what the visa information office told us to do. You should not need a co-sponsor. My son only made the required amount for 2008, as he had been a student abroad prior to that. My kids are adjusting status here, so we'll know more in another three months He has a six year commitment to the US Navy, so that probably does not hurt their case.

You should be okay, as long as last year your income is over 125%. good luck
