household size

[melusine84 0]

Hello... I am a US citizen living in Paraguay with my spouse and our son. I was previously married to a Mexican man, and filed an I-864 for him, which is still in its time period... Do I need to include him as a ´member¨ of our household because of this? Also, once the visa goes through, we´ll all be moving back to the states and temporarily living with my parents... But that´s not our actual situation. Do I put 3 or 4 for household size then?

Thank you!

Your household size is 4, as you include the Mexican ex, unless he's gotten citizenship by now or permanently moved back to Mexico.

Under the new rule that became effective Aug. 15, 2011 petitioners residing in countries without USCIS offices may file a Petition for an Alien Relative based on the addresses provided in the revised form instructions, also available on www.uscis.gov:

(i found this on USCIS website).

USAforms is correct- I for some reason thought you were in Peru, but you are in Paraguay, which does not have a USCIS office. The rules on household size still apply, but you will need to file via the US lockbox, not DCF.
