HELP WITH I-864 question PART #3 QUESTION 1!!!

[AugstAngelFelix 5]

hi guys we are almost done with completing our packet for our RFIE letter. And we are stuck on my moms I-864 (she is the first of two joint sponsors) the question asks: I am sponsoring the principal immigrant named in PART 2. the anwsers are YES and NO (Applicable only in cases with two joint sponsors.)

OUR QUESTION IS, which box do we need to check to combine my mom and dad as joint sponsors i am the us citizen married to my German husband who is applying for his green card. we really need to know asap as we want to mail this back Tuesday and will get denied if this is wrong. thank you <3<3<3

Does either of them meet the federal poverty guideline requirements (counting all members of their households and dependents too). If either of them does, then you don't need to have 2 joint sponsors. You need only one. You are regardless the principal sponsor whether you meet it or not (that is not a problem with USCIs). To answer your question though, yes since they are sponsoring your spouse, you check YES.

We only meet the requirement if we include both my parents we don't meet the requirement if we only use one. So even though we need both joint sponsors we still check no on my moms I-864?

You will not have more than one joint sponsor. If your parents need to combine their income to meet the requirement for joint sponsorship, then one parent fills out an I-864 and the other fills out an I-864A to go along with their spouse's I-864 and combine their incomes. The parent filling out the I-864 will check 1 d., only joint sponsor. The other parent filling out the I-864A is their household member and not another separate joint sponsor. You can only have one joint sponsor.

Thank you so much for your help guys! so we would be correct to check yes on my moms I-864 then?

[ManCharsey 254]

Yes you check YES oh her's but your dad fills out an I-864A instead of an I-864.
