What are the docs that our co-sponsor must submit except to I-864? My husband (USC) will get his brother as our co-sponsor.

No matter what, Your husband will consider as Primary Sponsor.So, he has to submit all required documents for AOS package himself. If he has Joint Sponsor then following documents are required from Joint Sponsor

- Completed, signed, and dated I-864 of joint sponsor

- Tax information* of joint sponsor (either just the last year OR the last 3 years)

- Proof of US citizenship/residency of joint sponsor (ex: copy of US passport, US birth certificate, US naturalization certificate, or front & back of green card)

- Employment letter of joint sponsor (optional, but good proof of CURRENT income)

- Pay stub(s) of joint sponsor (optional, but good proof of CURRENT income)

If they are combining their income to meet the minimum income requirement then you have to submit proof of relationship....

hi. Thanks for the helpful info. Mu husband has no income because he has been here living in the Philippines. Do we need still the proof of relationship between him and the joint sponsor?

If our joint sponsor will fill out the I-864, how many total of household? he is only one in the house in USA.

And plus the fact that we tried to count the household of my husband's i-864, how many it should be? We dont have kids.

Thanks. Sorry but I am really confused.

Assuming that your Joint Sponsor does not have any dependent, his household size will be 2, himself and you ( Intending Immigrant). check the link for Poverty Guidlines

http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf

In above situation, if your husband's brother makes $ 18,912 yearly,technically he is eligible (higher income is always better) to be a Joint Sponsor and does not need the proof of relation because

A joint sponsor can be ANY U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or lawful permanent resident who is at least 18 years old, domiciled in the United States, or its territories or possessions, and willing to be held jointly liable with the petitioner for the support of the intending immigrant. A joint sponsor does not have to be related to the petitioning sponsor or the intending immigration

Your husband has to file I-864 and household size will be 2 for him in total. Primary sponsor ( your husband) and yourself ( Intending Immigrant). Keep in mind that he should not count any individule twice when filling I-864. If he did not file his tax return for recent year ( 2011) then he has to write a letter with reason.

By this time, I guess, you know what documents your husband has to have on AOS package. Most important in this process is CURRECT INCOME....So, its good idea to have all those supportive documents from your JOINT SPONSOR that shows his current income...

good luck...

If the joint sponsor doesn't have a dependent, the household size is 2 (Joint sponsor and you).

If your husband doesn't have dependent other than you, the household size for him is also 2 (your husband and you).
