Of course I will be my husbands primary sponsor, but I do not meet the poverty guidlines so we will have a joint sponsor.

My question is, how is the joint sponsors household size counted?

Does it go ....

1. Myself (petitioner)
2. Husband (beneficary)
3. Our baby (lives with me in US) ??
4. Joint sponsor himself
5. Joint sponsors dependents.

You must show that your household income is equal to or higher than 125% of the U.S. poverty level for your household size. (Your household size includes you, your dependents, any relatives living with you, and the immigrants you are sponsoring.)


DOES THIS MEAN MYMOTHER, we live together but she supporting me.

Does her SSD count as household income along with my low wage salary?
