Instructions for 864 I'm not sure what your status is so here are the detailed instructions and criteria for use of each form. Best of luck,

Hi, congratulations on your NOA-2. But please also update your timeline so Igor's list will also be updated.

The I-864 as what I've read is the longer version while the I-864ez is the shortcut version. I suggest you use the I-864 so that it will be more informative compared with I-864ez. This is only my opinion, hope it helps. And I hope a lot of experienced VJ members would chime in.

As Wishfull said, the I-864EZ is a shorter, easier to fill in version of the I-864.

If your answer to all three questions on part 1 of the I-864EZ is "yes", you can use it. However, not everyone qualifies to use the EZ-version. We used it and had no problems whatsoever.
