I have a question regarding "other" income as it pertains to the I-184 (affidavit of support).

Using my own employment income, I do not meet the 125% guidelines for my household size. BUT, I do receive a significant amount of child support from my ex. If included as "income", I would meet the guidelines. Since child support is not taxable to me, it is not reported on my tax returns. BUT, I do have my divorce decree/agreement stating the amount of child support I get. Will that be able to be used as support?

Yes, child support can be added to the regular income to meet the poverty line.

You need all the proof of this consistent child support income such as court agreement, bank slips/deposits etc.

I used the child support, but I also got a co sponsor and submitted all to NVC. I did it just in case they don't consider child support at the embassy interview...
