Hello again fellow members,

Anybody can please enlighten me about the 125% poverty guideline?I am worried that we did not meet the poverty guideline requirement.

My questions are:

1. How do i count the family household size? It is only me, my husband and our 19 month old baby. Should I count 3? or should i count 5 including my 2 kids(the I-130 benefeicary).

WHen hubby lost his job.. We did not make enough to meet the poverty requirement..we are off $540 to meet the 125% poverty level for a household size of 5.

2. How should i count the family size? should i count 3? coz if its 3 then we are way above the 125% but if i count i as 5 then we are off $540.

Please i would appreciate any help.

Sorry, you have to count the "household" not just the children of the beneficerary... Unless they are over 18 and file their own taxes, they are part of your household

Read the I-864 instructions: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864.pdf

it explains everything including household size and how to use assets to make up the difference between the poverty line and what you have.
