Affidavit of Support, what's the minimum amount of money?

[kathylevine 0]

Hello again,

Now I'm trying to fill the I-864 Affidavit of Support form and I was checking the poverty guidelines,

My husband makes about 20,000 a year. is that enough or does he need a co-sponsor?

I'm so confused.If someone could answer me I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

That's enough for a household of 2 (husband + you), required is $19,387.

You have to consider the petitioner's number of household members PLUS the intending immigrant/s in order to determine if you'll need a joint sponsor or not.

according to the guidelines if its just you and your husband so it looks good ... but remember because its so close I would send in the I864 without co sponsor but have a backup ready if it doest get accepted atlest you have a co sponsor ready to go..

The following is the USCIS site with the poverty guidelines.

You need to be at 125% of the poverty level for the household size and place of residence (Alaska and Hawaii have higher requirements).
