I-864 Form Not Working and Question

[miperroesunico 0]

I am currently working on filling out the I-864 and it won't let me fill in some of the boxes, the apartment numbers in any of the address parts, Part 5 question 1 (Provide the number you entered in Part 3., Item Number 28), Part 5 number 2, (yourself) or part 5 number 8 (household size). Has anyone else had this issue, I have tried on 2 different computers (PC and Mac) as well as tried to do it directly on the website and downloaded the PDF to my desktops. Also according to the instructions a barcode should be created on the bottom of the pages, this isn't turning up either.

Also, when listing my household size I put 1 for the number I entered in Part 3 and I put 1 for myself. There is another section that says if you are married enter 1 for your spouse but my spouse is the same as the person I am sponsoring from part 3. I think I am going to leave spouse blank, I don't want it to say our household is 3 when it is 2. Is this the correct thing to do?

hi

you can't fill it out on the website

do you have the latest acrobat reader?

do not list a person twice, in this case since you are filing for spouse you don't enter any number for spouse because spouse is the beneficiary.

that is filled in, when a petitioner files for someone else than spouse, such as parent, child or sibling, then you add spouse as part of your household member

you are correct in not filling that in

I did need to update Adobe. Thanks.

Another question if anyone knows, I currently work outside of the US and have been doing so for almost 2 years so according to my tax return my adjusted gross income last year was less than $0.00 (due to paying back student loans). I did make more than the required amount for a 2 person household last year, just not in the US. I am planning on including a letter from my current employer that shows how much I will make when I move to the US and it is above the poverty line, should that be sufficient or should I try and get one of my parents to co-sponser my wife.

As aleful already told you, you are filling out the form correctly. Your spouse is counted as the principal immigrant so you wouldn't count them again (as the instructions clearly say to not do).

The I-864 is used for sponsorship in multiple immigration cases, not just spousal visas. The instructions on the form are very clear about not counting anyone twice. If a spouse is the principal immigrant, you don't fill out the married box a second time (doing so would result in the form being improperly filled out and could result in a checklist being issued).

I've been working outside the US for the last 5 years and will be going to a job in the US once we move. I got an offer letter from my new US employer and put the annual salary that I will be making once I move in the current salary box. The salary is just above the required income for our household and we did not need a co-sponsor. We just received a checklist for something else so I know what I did wasn't a problem.
