affidavit of support

[RobynSway2709 0]

okay so my US fiance's father is providing the affidavit of support as my fiance is a student. Does my fiance still need to fill in the form even though he doesnt have a job or pay stubs? His father will be a full sponsor.

Thanks in advance.

Yes he does, otherwise they won't know that he indeed needs the sponsor.

[Stephen + Elisha 92]

Yes, your fiance still needs to fill it in. The petitioner must be the primary sponsor.

The answers you have gotten would be true for an I-864 Affidavit of Support. But for the I-134 London, the beneficiary just needs 'a sponsor' to convince the officer "that he or she is not likely at any time to become a public charge." There is no law/rule that says an I-134 from the unemployed fiance would be of any use if there is somebody else doing the sponsor duties. The beneficiary can even self-sponsor in London with no I-134 at all, by showing they have funds of their own.

ok great.. my fiance father is sponsoring, his earnings are quite high however im worried , cause his mam and dad are divorced and california making the ex husband pay the ex wife, does this come in to play when they asses his income? he lives with his girlfriend and her adult kids.. do they count as dependents? his sons are all over 18 and only 1 still lives with their mam.. im confused with all of this.. any advice? thanks you so much for your help

The ex-wife probably counts. Does he claim the gf & kids on his tax forms as dependents? I think you have to be married for that.

Check what the current numbers are for 125% poverty. If he has a decent salary you probably have nothing to worry about: that 125% number is really low. They really mean "poverty". Family of 4 in 2012: 125% of poverty is $27,938. I would hope that ONE person working full time is getting at least that much!

Somehow a family of 7 is supposed to be able to live off of $42,263! Well, in just-over-poverty at least...

I guessed 4 by using him, ex-wife, under 18 son, and then fiancee. I left you out though, so I guess it would be 5. $32,713

Still shouldn't be a problem.
