Filing for a CR1 after Visa Waiver overstay ?

It's x3 if you use your own assets, but x5 if it's someone else.

Can the dad save up that much money in 6-ish months? Seems unlikely, that would basically be all his salary for half a year. It's not sure that they would deny a savings account which was created and added into only in the 6 months before the I-864, but it is suspicious.

How much under the 125% is your spouse? Could she get a part-time job to add to her income?

What about you? Do you have any savings or assets you can transfer state side? Or maybe your family could give you a wedding present of money to help set you up when you get to the USA? Some US embassies don't even require assets to be in the USA if they are held by the beneficiary, but I am not sure what France's policy is on that.

Thanks pushbrk

I also have a topic in the NVC section and a member told the dad can't use the I-864A and have to use the regular I-864 cause he's the head of household.

Him plus 7 person he claimed on his last taxes plus me the immigrant, that makes a household of 9.

I checked the 2011 poverty guideline and the income should be $51.812, but he's only making $48.XXX (i don't remember how much exactly).

Since he's under the 125% poverty line and he have no assets, and nobody worrks except him, I though about a solution.

Maybe since we only gonna be at NVC part in 5/6 months, maybe during this time he can open a saving account (if he doesn't have one already), and all together him, my wife and me tryin to put money on this account progressively until we have around $4000/$5000 and that asset combine to the last year income make him crossing the poverty line by a little bit at the moment of filing his I-864.

I know they're gonna ask a bank statement to prove that saving money, but are they looking if that deposit is recent or not ? are they requiring on the date ?

I don't want them to make problems cause they feel the dad made a saving account "just for the occasion" if you know what I mean...

Is that solution possible ?

Thanks in advance.

The end result is the same, in that all the Dad's household will be counted. Your BEST solution is for your spouse to get a better job.

I see Dan is anticipating a rejection by NVC of the I-864 864a, since your wife isn't the head of the household. He may well be correct but as I said, the result is the same. Regardless, let's be clear on just who is being counted in your numbers. Best to continue the discussion in a single thread, the other one.
