I am doing double check of the I-130 with I-485 package. I read abou the NO BLANK suggestion for the application forms. In I-864, my husband (petitioner) has enough income to support me, can I leave the 'Part 7 Use of assets to supplentment income' as blank or put N/A?

Another question: he was a graduate student from Aug 2008 to May 2010 and started to work on Dec 2010. He includes only his 2011 tax return and employment letter to I-864. He got tax exempted fellowship during 2008-2010 (above the 125% poverty line), so he didn't file tax return from school employer among Aug 2008-May 2010. The school didn't send out any exemption letter but W2s which stated his fellowship amount, and then W2Cs which adjusted those income to zero. He wrote a explanation letter includes the fellowship offer letter, W2s and W2Cs of 2009,2010. Would be this enough? Thanks

Since you don't need to use assets, put 0.00 in all the blanks.

so he didn't file tax return from school employer among Aug 2008-May 2010.He wrote a explanation letter includes the fellowship offer letter, W2s and W2Cs of 2009,2010. Would be this enough?

Yes. Make sure his letter cites the IRS tax code explaining why his fellowship is tax exempt.

If put 0.00 would that be wrong answer, we both have balance on saving and checking account?

You only fill it out if you need to use your accounts for assets to meet the 125% above poverty rule.

If your sponsor's income is sufficient, you do not need to use any kind of assets. Put N/A on line 7 and fill the blanks with zeros. You are not lying, you are not using that information. You are only filling in blanks. I did this on my I-864 and it was approved with no problem.

Thank you for the response, do you mean I wrote with a pen N/A at side of Part 7 ? Becuase I can not input N/A with computer, they all change to 0.00.

Try typing in None. I think I had the same issue and ended up writing NONE in the blank.

I don't think it will be an issue either way. If you really want it to say "None" instead of "0.00", you can print it out and write "None" by hand.

We did not use assets and just left that section blank.

(Just to note, my interpretation of "None" and "N/A" is that "None" in this case is just as correct or incorrect as 0.00 would be - if you think 0.00 would be incorrect, then I would use N/A. But again, I don't think it will matter.)

OP is having issues with Blank 7 which is the social security number for the beneficiary. I've heard some people leave it blank, and have no issues. Others either write none or N/A. If adobe won't let you put something in the blank. Leave it blank, print it out and write None with an ink pen.

As far as the blanks for the assets. leave them as 0.00 that is the default setting showing 0 dollars being used for assets. Don't freak out about that.
