My wife is a housewife and would like to co-sponsor her sister's affidavit of support with her sister's permanent resident husband. Unfortunately, she does not earn any money, however, she is part of my household and I earn enough to sign. Can she sign using my income since she is equally entitled to my income?

I am the USC.

Exactly.

I recently have had my I130 approved NOA2 Sep 30,2013.



I have 2 options for sponsor



A) Income of over 120K per year but only 15-20k in the bank due to a recent investment in India



B) Income of about 70k per year and has about 50k in the bank.



Which one is a better pic? Option B is my sister, and Option A is her spouse.



Sorry, re posted this again... please help.

They go by the total income on the latest tax return. (Also might need proof about current income [paystub showing year to date total or job letter showing salary figures]

From what I understand if total income reported (in tax return line 22) is above the poverty line for the total dependents then you do not need to show additional income ( bank account). Only if it is not sufficient then you can supplement/add other income to bring the total above poverty line.

If the total income in both cases is above the poverty line then i'd go with the one that has simple straight forward documentation. Also see what others have to say on this

Try and go the simplest route as NVC is handing out checklist for AOS needlessly.

Good Luck

Where can you get the form for joint sponsor?

Its the same form but has the "Joint Sponsor" box checked and filled with joint sponsor information
