Hello everyone,

SO me and my husband (he is a USC) already filed i-130 (pending). Now we are tryin to file i-485/765/131

Our problem, and the reason why we didnt filed i-485 with i-130 is because of the affidavit of support. And please, we need help with this step.

So my husband doesnt make enough money to sponsor me so we asked my mother in law but she makes $35 000 instead of $42 000 and some change she is supposed to make ( 7 dependants).

Now i know my english is not perfect but we dont know what to do, we asked everybody and nobody makes enough money. so we are just stuck in this process...

what can we do ? we dont live with her and nobody can join their incomes with her since shes the only one currently working.

i am tired and our situation is getting worse living with only my husband's income....

thank you for takin the time to read this....

There is no path to a visa/green card without the affidavit of support. IF you can't meet the requirement then you should return home and your husband should continue to work on finding a solution and then you can file to come live in the US.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

This here is pretty much the only solution, other than finding a suitable co-sponsor who is willing to take on that burden.

December 12th, 2013: Picked up marriage license.

You are always ALLOWED to leave the country. You may not be ALLOWED to re-enter. You have a few simple choices: 1) find a co-sponsor that meets the income requirements and file the I-864, 2) have your husband find a better paying job to meet the income requirements, 3) have assets that make up the difference between income and the income requirements--assets are taken at 1/3 of their fair market value, 4) return to your home country and wait until the income situation is better and apply for a spousal visa with a waiver on the ban--I am assuming that you have over-stayed your current legal admission and thus would incur the 10 year bar if you leave the US, 5) remain in the US illegally until the income situation is solved and then file the I-864.

Those are your choices. I cannot comment on #5 as it violates the TOS of this website, but it sounds like that is the option you are going to use.

Good luck,

Dave

Thank you so much. Yes i think i am going to find another sponsor.

My husband found a new job that i didnt know about since he didnt start it yet. it's a full time position 18 000$ a year and he will keep his another job as a part time job but the contract for both jobs is : full time job, $18 000/year. so i don't know how i can submit them and explain it to USCIS. Does he need to ask his first job for a new contract ? or just join a letter explaining the situation ?
