I know I keep asking questions on here but I'm just nervous and want to know all of the answers before hand. :) I am planning to sponsor my husband by myself. I do have two children and I know how much I am supposed to make according to the 2012 poverty levels (125%) anyways I was wondering if they will let me be the sponsor if I'm supposed to make (it's somewhere between 28 and 29,000) and I make 30,000 a year between both of my jobs. I really don't have anyone to co-sponsor and I am working sooo hard to make what they require, just hoping that they will consider it enough or do they want you to make significantly more? I've been making the 30,000 since April before it was less. Also who looks at my affadavit to determine if I make enough, is that done in the US or at the embassy?

If you are under the amount, you do not qualify. If you are over you SHOULD qualify. Do you have any cash or other assets you could use to help get the number a bit higher?

The affidavit of support is reviewed when it goes to NVC. If they do not believe it is adequate they will tell you to get additional sponsor. The embassy also have the right to ask for more at the interview if they think it is required based on your circumstances.
