AOS and K1 Interview question

[acabrera7186 10]

hey guys i have 2 questions don't know where im suppose to post this but here goes First, i made 14k last year i don't know if that's OK or not i heard i can send a letter stating that my fiance wont be a public charge with the salary i make i don't know if its BS or not so my question is if its not enough i know i would need a co sponsor so if i made 14k would my co sponsor only need to make the remaining 6k to complete the 19 or 20k for the poverty level or would they need to make the whole 19k? My second question is i been with my fiance for 4 years and just now started the petition do you think when i go for the interview they would ask why it took so long to do the paper work we just wanted to see how things go and save up for the visa and the AOS when he comes here right away?

Your income must meet the poverty requirements Period, end of story.

If you use a co-sponsor their income must meet the poverty requirements, independent of your income, for their household plus one (the immigrant).

Question number 2 is not a problem. They probably won't ask.

As the other poster address the Affidavit of support issue you need a co-sponsor. Writing a letter is BS. You have to show it in income.

As far as if they will ask that's all dependent on your evidence. More than likely they won't but it can be asked if you show you were unsure.

Yep

Your co-sponsor fills out their own separate I-134 and must meet the income requirement for their own household size plus the foreign fiance(e). For example, if your co-sponsor is married and has one child, then they need enough for a household of 4.

My husband and I were together 10 years before we filed. The CO actually did ask why we waited so long. Just be honest and it should not be a problem, if they ask about it.

so my mom would have to meet the poverty requirements not just complete mine

If your mom is going to be your co-sponsor, then yes. There is no combining of incomes with the I-134.
