Should both Sponcer and Petitioner should show bank balance also? My wife earned around 21000 (around10000 bank balance) this year and sponcer around 39000 ( around 2000 bank balance and is unmarried) Is this enough?

my daughter and i was scheduled for 7:30am appointment... got caught in traffic so were about 15mins late. we went to the front of the line and was sent in immediately (showed apointment letter and passport). We went through metal detectors ... I was given a number and told to sit down and listen for it... I waited about 10-15mins before my number was called... I went to the first window where I handed in our medicals, passport, pictures, my police record and was finger printed. First co asked.....who is my filing for me? What's my current address and my phone number. She told me sit and listen for my name this time. Another 30-40mins my name was callEd. Second co and I greeted each other (nice lady). She swore me in and I was finger printed again. She only asked me three question. have I ever traveled outside of the country? have i ever committed any criminal offence? and if my husband is my child's father. gave me a pamphlet about spousal abuse. Type something in her computer And said you're all good. Did you sign up for dhl? Said yes. Was told my passport would be delivered within a week or two. the whole process went smoothly. Thank god its over. Oh I carried a bunch of evidence to show ongoing relationship wasn't asked for anything.

thats helpfull. Thanks n congrats

what does household size means? my wife lives with her mother, brother (unmarried earns around 20000) and sister (unmarried earns around 38000. Her sister is our Sponcer. i am confused about household size and poverty guidelines. Help me out guys....

# Does household size means all 4 members or only me and my wife?

# and about sponcer she is single, does it means she is counted as 1 or total family members?

Thanks, Dordor! I'm in the US right now, so I booked a flight to Germany on Tuesday, will get there on Wednesday, so I can go to the medical exam on Thursday. Tight schedule, but hopefully everything will work out fine. So excited! :)
