I-134 joint signature

[kels1787 0]

Hello all,

My parents have agreed to sponsor my fiance and fill out the I-134 for us. My mother owns the house and property, but my step-dad has the higher-paying job with a more reliable income. So they've decided that my step-dad will fill it out with his info. Is there any other way to do it so that both of their resources could count?

Also, I read somewhere that if the sponsor is married, it should be signed jointly by husband and wife. How is that done? They just both sign on the line at the bottom of the form?

Thanks very much!

The I-134 is an individual form. It only applies to one person's income/assets.

Hello!!!

I had that same question. If my parents fill the taxes together, in the I-134F annual income question #7, I write the salary of one or both as shown in the 1040s? If you say that the I-134F should be a single person, then, what should I do if my father fill out the form with his salary only.

For example, if my father has a salary of $ 50,000.00 and my mother $ 32,000 and they filing jointly where the taxes get an annual home salary of $ 82,000.00 with a dependent child. But if my father fill I-134F should be placed on annual income $ 50,000.00 and one dependent? Partially or whole?

Then my mother's income does not count even if present in the 1040 W-2 that is needed to evidence?

Sorry if I made a lot of questions, but would appreciate your answers. Thank you very much.

Just one parent completes the I-134. No combining of incomes allowed with the I-134. Mom, Dad, and dependent child makes a household of 3. Add the intending immigrant and that is a household count of 4. An income of $50k satisfies the requirement.

To be clear, the person signing the affidavit is asked to complete the sentence, "I derive and annual income of..." Note it says "I", not "We" and answer accordingly. When you supply a tax return, use the complete return including W2 forms, etc. so that the sponsor's past individual income can be clearly verified and a recent pay stub or two to verify their "current income".

Anh Map and pushbrk: I am grateful for your responses. It cleared my doubts that must be a single income even though they have filled taxes jointly.

Then, using my dad as co-sponsor, however he need to put my mother and the child as a dependent on their wages, although my mother has her own salary?

I know my dad's salary meets the requirement, but my biggest concern was headed whether my mom and the child should be a partially or whole dependents in the I-134F.

Many thanks for your time.

It doesn't matter because they'll be counted as whole people in the household count. I would count them as whole dependents.
