Affadavit of Support Questions...please help...can't get any answers

[browneyedgirl29 0]

I am filling out the affadavit of support. I receive child support and a debt settlement from my divorce. I've heard I can include child support. What about the debt settlement? It is something I will be receiving for 10 more years. My fiance has written to the consulate in Montreal but the only answer he received was a link to the form and form instructions which does not mention either of thoset two items. And if I can include those two things, where on the form do I include them? On the income line? I'm so overwhelmed. We are finally nearing the end and I'm just so afraid that something will go wrong. We have waited 3 years to be together and I don't want to mess it up.

Thanks for your help.

Yes you can include child support. Include copies of the court order and proof that it is being paid (copies of checks or deposits)

Your settlement may or may not be included, it is up to them. I would include it in your statement and attach copies of documentation. The only issue I see with this is that if the income is of a short term they may nt include it, but let the consulate make that decision

If your income from a job (or other source) exceeds the guidelines you do not have to include any of the other income.

Yes, you include them on the income line. Add all your income together to state your currebt annual income. attach all documentation and a separate sheet if needed to explain the income sources.
