I submit the I 864 for my parents and im the only sponsor. NVC told me that i did not meet the minimum income requirement even though i have 2 jobs. They want me to submit again an I864 for another joint sponsor but my husband is unemployed since nov 2011 last year. Do he need to fill up the form I864?

and my father in law is willing to help me if i need him as a sponsor, and we are leaving in the same house. if ever which form should he needs to fill up? I864 or I864A?

We would love to help you but we need more info... How many dependents you have on your tax return, + your parents.. We need to figure out your household size, so that we can have the income needed to support your parents.

When we have the household size, we can get the magic number you need to come up with.

A joint sponsor could be anybody willing to sign I-864 and should meet the poverty guideline by itself.

An I-864A is a sponsor that's within your household and would want to combine his/her income to come up with the magic number from the 2012 poverty guidelines :)

Good Luck!

If your husband was still working, it couldhave been fine. Your household size is 4 for you and 2 parents.. You need to have at least an income of $38712 if you are living in the contiguous states.

You can ask your father inlaw to sign for I-864A since he's living on the same household but your household size will increase + his household size. So make sure that with adding him up you still can reach the poverty guideline.

one more question..

so my husband does'nt need to fill up I864 or I864A any more right?

Posted (edited)

He doesn't have to, since he's unemployed but you still count him as part of your household size in figuring out your poverty line.

You need to fill up and sign another I-864 and let your father inlaw sign I-864A.

Count the total household size and compare it with the poverty line If it meets.

Pls don't forget that your father in law needs proof of citizenship or legal immigrant status, so don't forget to send them together with any financial proof and employment verification.

Good Luck!

The father in law of the petitioner is not eligible to use the 864A. An in-law is not a qualifying household member.

In this circumstance the Father in Law will complete an I-864 for the person(s) being sponsored.

Thank you.. I guess you're right. Only parents of the principle filer of I-864.

Thanks for the correction.

Your father in law can fill I-864 as a co sponsor but his income must meet the poverty guideline based on his household plus your parents.

Your father in law can fill I-864 as a co sponsor but his income must meet the poverty guideline based on his household plus your parents.

so if my father in law needs to use the I 864 which one do he need to check for letter e (part 1)? is it the frst sponsor? or second of two joint sponsor..

and also for my current individual income, do i need to combine my full time and part time? as my part time job they only put that im working with them since dec 2011 and my rate is $8.

Posted

You will be the petitioner and your father in law will be the only joint sponsor.

You can state your part time income but if you have your father inlaw who makes more that the guideline, you don't really need it but it's always good to specify all of your current income.

Good Luck!

You leave # 9 empty as that's only for derivative visas. And yup both you and your Father in law needs to fill up I-864 for each parent.
