Was wondering if the same process is required like the Visa regarding income requirements or getting a sponsor when filing for the N-400? Is there a minimum income level and where can I get that information.

Thanks as always to everyone on this site for all the great info I have gotten already through the process.

You do not need a sponsor when applying for naturalization. If the applicant was petitioned by a US citizen to immigrate to the US as a legal permanent resident, such US citizen would usually have signed an affidavit of support which is valid for up to 10 years after such applicant immigrates to the US, or such time that they become a US citizen themselves.

In other words, the existing affidavit of support is still valid and you need not provide another.

I do recommend that you read all the documentation pertaining to N-400, Application for Naturalization (http://www.uscis.gov/n-400) -- the form itself, its instructions, the document checklist, the eligibility worksheet, and M-476, A Guide to Naturalization, so you don't miss anything.
