Hi VJ Friends, I am a newbie here. I and My Fiance will process K1 soon. But I was wondering since my fiance is going back school and has been for one year. He decided also to stop to work to concentrate for his school.He just paid tax only 2 years ago and its mean he doesn't pay tax for last year and this year also.

I really need your help about my question which are :

1. Is that Ok if he just send tax report for this year only or we have to bring for 2 years?

2. How much money he should have to be a sponsor. He lives alone in Apartment, divorce and has a daughter who is above 19 years (but she does not stay with him)

Thank you so much to read and give me suggestion

I don't think anyone is going to be able to answer your questions definitively without more information.

But, making a bunch of assumptions, I'm assuming your fiancé is the petitioner/USC? If he has no income (or so little that he is below the tax threshold: $600, I believe?), then what is he living on? In order to bring you here, he would need to earn above the poverty line for 2 people or have a co-sponsor. If I recall correctly, assets can also be counted, but the total would need to be 5 times larger than he would need in income, so unless he has a very large amount in savings, it sounds like a co-sponsor would be necessary.

Thank you for reply.

My Petitioner is USC and he has some money because he had been working more than 20 years. He said he has saving account in Bank more less 110K . That's why just wondering whether it is enough money to be my sponsor. He will get job after he finished his school since he choose in medical field major and probably next semester he will try to get part time job also. So as you said 5 times from poverty guidelines is enough???If so...I think It will be fine for us.

wish us luck.... :) Thanks again

It only needs to be 3x the amount actually. His household size is himself, any dependent children under 21 plus you. http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf

If he has not filed taxes due to making no income last year, then he needs to make a statement explaining that he is a student in the medical field and made $0 in income and therefore was not legally required to file taxes.

Since her daughter stays with her mom since they were divorced (5 years ago) and last year was the last time he paid for child support,do we still need to put her daughter on his household also?I mean..do we still count her also (totally 3 of us)??

A statement that you told that he has to put when we send I-129F or after I've got NOA3 to get the interview in US Embassy in my country?Because he said if he put his SSN so USCIS can read what's his activity until now include to be a student. What do you think?
