Need help for the I-864 form

[taal 28]

Okay you guys so have a couple of questions in regards to the I-864 form I'm going to send NVC.....I just want to make sure that I did not fill out the form incorrectly....

Since I'm a student and unemployed this year,

I have a joint sponser (my Dad) that I reside with to fill out the I864a form.....

When I fill out the I-864 form do I on

Part 1-Mark box

A- I am the petitionar. I filled or am filling for the immigration of the immigration of my relative.

or

D-I am the only joint sponser

E-I am one of the two joint sponsors

For Part 3

Information on Immigrants you are sponsoring

I am sponsoring the principal immigrant in part above

Do I fill

A.yes

B. NO (applicable in case of two joint sponsors)

Part 5 Sponsors household size

Part 21. Persons you are sponsoring in this affidavit

Enter the number you entered in line 10- which I put one for my husband the immigrant

Persons not sponsored in this affidavit:

a-yourself

b-you are currently maried enter 1 for your spouse.... I included him in line 10 so I don't write anything right?

g- is optional so even though my dad is the joint sponsor i can leave that blank right? it says optional?

h- add the numbers up Household size and I came up with two... for myself and my spouse....Is that correct?

Part 24

a.LIst your income from line 23-- mine is 0

b.income you are using from anyone you have counted in your household... I counted myself only... So for part 21 -g the optional do I go back and include my Dad now? I put his name and income down but did not add him on part G.....

Part 25-Federal income tax return information... I have had income for the past three years however its not much but of course i'll add it in.....

Part 26,27,28 are all optional and my Dad makes enough income to cover my spouse so that will just be left at 0.

Of course my Dad will complete a I864a form.....

I would appreciate all your help,

Thanks

With zero income for you/petitioner have the joint sponsor use the form I-864, not 864A. Doesn't matter who the joint sponsor is.

The petitioner is always a sponsor regardless of income

I doesn't matter either way, both forms would work in this situation.

Wait wouldn't my Dad have to fill out the I-864a since I live with him?

I know you answered my question but I don't want to prolong the NVC process... So I fill out the I864 form and my dad fills out I-864a form?

Not really. With zero income the petitioner isn't needing just a push over the line from a portion of a household member's income. Using the I-864 for the parent gives a complete household picture to the adjudicating officer, thereby eliminating any possible RFE for an I-864.

The goal here is to get the visa on the first go, not play semantics and experience delays.

thank you to everyone who replied to my question...After checking various sites and forms, I gave up and asked a lawyer....

I do have to complete the I-864form even if I had no income....

And my Dad who I reside with completes the I864a form.....

So all of the questions I had in regards to my case have been answered...

Thankyou once again for the help...
