I-864

[len ben 12]

Sorry I posted this topic on DCF and noone is answering me.

Good day all!

My husband and I are set to have an interview on July 11th here in Manila Philippines, but we still have to complete our I-864 forms. We filed CR-1 DCF here in Manila because he is living here for the past three years now because he is currently studying. He decided to take up nursing after he was laid off from work last 2008. WE met each other in school last 2009, got married December 2010 and is now expecting a baby.

My questions are:

1. What do we attach to the I-864 if he is not working for the past 3 years? From what I read, we need to attach w2 and ITR on his i-864 but as I've said, he is currently not working.

2. Since my in-laws are providing the annual income requirement and we (me and my husband) will be staying at their house when we get there, what forms should they fill out? is it 1-864 or i-864a because they belong to our household?

3. My in-laws are also filing joint taxes, should they sign 2 forms i-864/a or just one? What other document should be attached onto their form/s?

4. Do we need additional proof of income/property? just to be on the safe side?

Husband completes an I-864 regardless of income and attaches all required documentation. The instructions tell you that if a sponsor was not required to file a tax return then the sponsor attaches a statement to that effect citing the appropriate IRS rules.

The joint sponsor also completes an I-864 and supplies all needed documentation. If one of the in-laws earns enough then there is no reason for the other to complete an I-864A. If both incomes are needed then one completes the 864 and the other completes the 864A.

Reading the form instructions is very helpful. I urge you, your husband, and your in-laws to do that to learn what is required. These FAQ will also be helpful to all of you >>> http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3183.html
