Sorry, problems with I-864 - Household size

[J-DWs 0]

Hi all,

I know this is a topic that gets a lot of coverage, but despite attempts to find the answer in previous threads I am still unsure.

So my problem is:

I am a UK citizen living with my US spouse in London. She is leaving the UK on 01/29/2013 and returning to live with her family (parents and 1 sibling). I have my interview with US Embassy on 02/04/2013 and intend to move in with my wife's parents (until we get our feet on the ground) after I get visa.

As my wife and I, whilst employed in the UK, do not have jobs in the US, her mum is providing the full income for I-864. As far as I understand it, my wife fills out an I-864 stating 0 income and her mum then also fills out I-864. No I-864a needed. We have all tax returns, W-2's etc. etc.

However, what should my wife, and her mum fill out in terms of household size? My wife is not and has not been financially dependent. She is not on her mum's tax returns, and will only of been living with her mum for a few days at the time I am at interview.

I thought that maybe my wife's mum would classify my wife under 21e but I am not sure if that is the case. I suppose this is also important because it effects whether we fill out I-864a or not.

Any help greatly appreciated.

If your wife is not dependent on her mother's taxes, then she is not part of her household size.
