I'm sorry if this question has been asked, but I haven't seen it yet. I was wondering how much would a person have to have put away or saved up in the bank in order to qualify for this? See my situation is that i just got back from Spain like 1 week and half ago and as me and my fiancee were coming back we got stopped in Switzerland and she got turned around because she didn't have a return ticket. I don't know why but that just happened. Fortunately I was in Spain on a one-way so I guess I thought both parties could do that. Well I just got back and I start this production job, not very lucrative taking the fact that I dropped college for our relationship because it's going to take time to have her here and I know I have to work and make income. We've been knowing each other for 2 years non-physically and next year of May 31, 2011, we would be knowing each other physically for two years. My question is how much should I have in income and cash assets because I'll only be making like 12 an hour, although I do live in a small town in Texas, it could support us etc. I really need help with this one. What are all of my options? Should I give up? Should I pursue? I mean I don't have that kind of money, nor own anything of that value. Please help me. Someone on Yahoo Answers said that this was a good place to learn and be helped, please and thank you.

Sounds like you earn enough to sponsor.

Please red the guides so you can familiarise yourself with the process.

The visa process itself costs money (filing fee, visa fee, AOS fee), not sure how much that adds up to (around $2000?).

Here is a link to the poverty guidelines: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf

For a household of two people it says $18,212 income per year.

I think you have to provide tax records (or at least the actual number) for the last three years. Also good is a letter from your current employer, stating your position and income.

There is also the option of having a co-sponsor.

Check out the GUIDES on top of the page, there is a wealth of information on this site.

Good luck!

I will be using a co-sponsor, it will be one of my parents. The question that I have which I can't seem to find an answer on is... Relationship to Sponsor... What would I put for my fiance? Daughter in-law to be?
