The petitioner always needs to send in an I-864, even with no income and relying on a co sponsor. The petitioner is always the primary sponsor.

II. Joint Sponsor’s documents (if required)

If a petitioner’s income does not meet the 125% income requirement, a joint sponsor must complete a Form I-864. Note: The petitioner must also submit a Form I-864.

* The Joint Sponsor is required to meet the same qualifications as the petitioner and submit the same documentation noted in I. Petitioner’s documents (listed above) including federal income tax return and income requirements.

If you did not file a return you will need to send a note explaining why you did not.

nikh,

You fill out the I-864 by entering information that is appropriate for your situation.

How did you accomplish 2 Joint Sponsors for 1 alien? That's not allowed. Do you perhaps have 1 Joint Sponsor who is including a Household Member?

Would your 2 Joint Sponsors be your parents?
