i want to know something

[TeSha 0]

my wife will live with her daughter

and my wife will be my sponsor but because her income is low so we will need co-sponsor and her sister will be my co-sponsor

so my question is her sister will fill out what form I-864 or I-864A

and the next question is the 1040 taxs return they need the last 3 years or just 2009 ?

If her sister lives with her living address - your wife will file I-864 and sister I-864A (Income can be combined with the sponsor and joint sponsor, here)

If her sister lives in another address - your wife will file I-864 and sister I-864 (Co-sponsor should meet entire poverty line here)

Last year (2009) tax returns are mandatory. All other previous years are optional.

reminder to anyone reading this - this is a 'DCF' case.

Oh I didn't know that the OP is DCF filer. Then ignore my post, please!

OP, my post is if the petitioner files the petition through USCIS, NVC to Embassy. DCF rules will be different.

loto - actually what you put in, is correct, for DCF.

I feel sorry for this couple -

I've been replying to him many times

and I'm convinced his USCitizen Spouse is NOT shown anything by him.

I've put in links, I've put in form download thingies,

and zip. nothing.

She's not calling the Embassy for instructions, apparently,

and the instruction sheet the Embassy sent for 'phase II' ?

I'm convinced she either doesn't understand it, or hasn't read it.

IMO, all of this 'I-864 stuff' could have been handled remotely by the sister, and the petitioner's tax transcripts faxed to sister's fax machine, then final 'I-864 set' sent to the petitioner in Egypt via fedex. Assume about a week, to get it all done and in her hands.

It's sad, I hope there's positive movement on all, in spite of this 'non-communication'.
