First of all, a I-864 was submitted, correct? Was it by your husband(the sponsor of your visa petition) and he met the poverty guidelines -- roughly $15,500/yr? If so, then you do not need to be concerned with the I-864A.

The I-864A is required when the sponsor does not meet the poverty guidelines with their income/assets. It is an affidavit of support for householod members. If a sponsor lives at home (i.e. family,friends), they would fill out the I-864 and the household member would fill out the I-864A. Their combined income would be seen as meeting the poverty guidelines. If the sponsor had no household members and did not meet the poverty guidelines, he would need a joint-sponsor to complete a I-864, which can be completed by anyone unrelated to him and willing to use their income to meet the poverty guidelines.
