Affidavit of support - confused

[Henley1989 10]

Hi,

This may have been discussed but I cant find anything exactly the same.

For the affidavit of support, the sponsor (my US citizen fiancée) works full time. She still however lives with her parents and grandparents (6 people in the house in total). We will be living there together until our wedding. My fiancée is not dependant on anyone for living expenses. She just happens to still live with her parents.

In terms of the minimum income requirements, does that mean its considered household of 6 people and therefore there needs to be combined income of $40,712 between all six people?

Or does she alone have to have an income of $40,712 as there are 6 people in the house (even if she isnt dependant on them)?

Thanks
Levy

She should make enough for two people...herself and you.

Ah great.. so as long as she makes over $19,912 we are good?

Yes. She doesn't support those people so doesn't have to make enough extra money to provide for them.
