Affadavit of Support

[DanHill13 0]

My fiancee and I have a couple of options for a co-sponsor for the affadavit of support. One of them is her Grandmother who whilst not working, has an income above that of what is needed from a retirement fund. Would this be accepted as valid income????

Thanks

Generally speaking yes, so long as she can demonstrate that it will continue for the duration of the I-864

Thats the key point right there in bold.

Should have included this in previous post--here are the obligations of a sponsor directly from the I-864 instructions--

Your obligation to support the immigrant(s) you are sponsoring in this affidavit of support will continue until the sponsored immigrant becomes a U.S. citizen, or can be credited with 40 qualifying quarters of work in the United States.

Although 40 qualifying quarters of work (credits) generally equate to ten years of work, in certain cases the work of a spouse or parent adds qualifying quarters. The Social Security Administration can provide information on how to count qualifying quarters (credits) of work.

The obligation also ends if you or the sponsored immigrant dies or if the sponsored immigrant ceases to be a lawful permanent resident and departs the United States. Divorce does not end the sponsorship obligation.

Yes, that would be accepted as a source of income.
