Urgent Question on I-864

[AdnanS 82]

Urgent Question

I'm filling out my I-864, under Part 5 - Household Sponsor Size. It says do no count anyone twice, but it says number of persons your sponsoring which I put "1" for my wife, but then it says "Persons NOT sponsored in this affidavit", I put a "1" for myself, below that it says if married put "1". If I do that, it makes my household size "3" and not "2" please help, what should I do?

Question 2:

Do I do the I-864 on the PDF document all in Caps?

There are two parts to this question. First is for people you are sponsoring on this form and the second is for people not sponsored on this form. Your wife is sponsored on the form. So you only count her in the first section.

Pretty sure caps or not will not matter.

So I got the first part down.

But need to confirm if

1) I-864 is all caps or not. Cause depending if its caps or not it changes the bar code on the form.

2) I have a joint sponsor how should I organize the papers mines and joint sponsors. And when I submit them, I put a bar coded sheet over my stuff and put in envelope and do I make a 2nd envelope with bar coded sheet and put in another envelope for joint sponsor?

1) doesn't matter

2) put the bar coded cover sheet on top of the entire bit. Include EVERYTHING in one envelope. Mail. There is absolutely no need to put your joint sponsor's in a separate envelope, just include it with yours. Use a cover letter to detail what exactly is in the AOS and put this under the bar coded cover sheet.

One other thing, my joint sponor can't access the IRS website for transcript and we might have to order them or go into the IRS office. What I wanted to ask was once we get the IV fee can we send in the IV documents first and once transcripts come in we send those in? Or does it have to be in a specific order?

Thanks.

You can send them in any order. If you look at my timeline you can see the AOS was sent after the IV package.

I suggest the joint sponsor go to an IRS office because they can walk out with the tax transcripts. They can mail you the rest of the AOS, then scan and email the tax transcripts for you to print (doesn't need to be originals, just the signature on the I-864 needs to be original.)
