Affadavit of Support Question!!!!

[katrinacov 0]

Hello,

So I have a question about the affadavit of support for the K1 visa and green card. I looked up the (2009 I think) 125% levels of income for sponsoring someone.

In my situation I will need to cover:

1. Myself

2. My fiance

3. My daughter

So I believe that comes to $22,888 (roughly)

QUESTION - I only have joint custody of my daughter, so does that play into the level of income that I need to make in order to sponsor? I only make $18,240. I was thinking since I only have joint custody it would lower the amount I need to make? That is one of the check boxes on that form I believe....joint custody?

For purposes of I-134 each family member is fully counted towards income requirements even if you are only partially responsible for them, so in your case - even though you only have shared custody of your daughter you must count her fully... Your income must be `125% of poverty level for 3 people.

You'll need a co-sponsor.
