Does a sponsor need to be related to fiance?

Hey y'all!

I was wondering if a co-sponsor needs to be related to the fiance?

My fiance's mom is the co sponsor already, but I just heard that we need an extra sponsor.

The only other person in his family is his grandmother, but she is retired so can not be a sponsor due to no income.

But a co-worker from my fiance might be willing to be a sponsor.

Is that allowed, or can it only be family?

Please let me know!

Don't understand why you need 2 co sponsor?

If your fiancé's mom doesn't meet the requirement then you can't use her as co sponsor. I might be wrong about all these.

As long as the co- sponsor is USC then they are all eligible

Because that's what I got told by the consulate.

Filed: K-1 Visa Country: United Kingdom
Timeline

Probably better if they are related but I think they accept as long as it's a USC. for the AOS I think it has to be a relative cause that's for binding than the k1 visa

No, co-sponsor doesn't have to be related to your fiance(e), spouse.

As long as he/she is an USC or LPR and has enough income, he/she can be a co-sponsor.

Do you happen to know an answer to my next question...

How does the sponsor need to count the household. He is married, so only him and his wife.

But a sponsor needs to be able to provide for both me and my fiance. (That's what the embassy told me)

So is his household 4 then?
