Desperately Seeking Help!!!

[MrsOyetunji 9]

I am facing a issue that I desperately need advice on. It seems as though I am unable to sponsor my husband due to my not meeting the $18,912 income for last year. I spent the majority of last year with him in Russia, I just returned to the states in June. I have no one to co-sponsor him with me, if they was to go according to what I am making and what I will bring home this year all would be well. We do not want to wait another year for him to come home. Is there any other programs or ways to sponsor my husband? Is there another route we must take? I am desperately needing advice on this matter. Thanks dearly,

If you have any assets part of them can be used to meet the requirement.

Your flag says Nigeria, and your post says Russia. Where will the interview take place?

Current and continuing income is what is measured (unless self employed). Are you a wage/salary earner or self employed?

If you are in permanent employment since June, and going by your timeline it is likely the interview won't happen for 5+ months, you will have over half a year of paystubs to show. That together with a letter from the employer stating you are employed there should get you approved.

Thank you for taking interest in my post...... He is Nigerian but currently lives in Russia and has lived there for the past 5 years and we were married there as well. I am currently employed part- time for my self but full time as a executive assistant. I make a great salary!!! I have no assets to claim at this time.

The affidavit of support does ask for information about past income but you qualify as sponsor based on your current income. Your full time job sounds like it pays enough to qualify. Self employment income isn't considered income until after it appears on a tax return, so no need to mention that at all as "current income". Sounds like you'll qualify just fine.

Thank you sooooo much!!! I informed my husband and he was VERY happy. We will be mailing off our I-130 documents Monday via priority USPS mail. I am confused as to which documents must be originals and which can be copies. You are very helpful and knowledgeable regarding this matter.

Only the official government forms you'll be signing should be originals now. Everything else is a photocopy. Originals of many documents will be needed at the NVC stage, so don't send them to USCIS with the petition.
