How many months of income?

[WheretoBegin 0]

We are having trouble finding a co-sponsor who meets the income requirements.

I work outside the U.S. and I'm considering moving back and getting a job there to meet sponsorship requirements.

How many months of income would I need to send to NYC? We've started the process already but are stuck now

Thanks

There is no number of months you must be working. You need to show an annualized income that meets the requirement for you household size plus the intending immigrant. Evidence that you use to document the income claim is an employer letter and several recent paystubs.

Be sure that you have your income tax filings sorted out as well. That can trip you up with the affidavit of support. You may not owe tax but may be required to file.

Thanks for the information. So If worked for a month and had 4 weekly paystubs that would be enough as long as it worked out the requirements?

CO's have complete discretion on this. No one can give any type of definitive answer.

As Ryan said no one can give you a definite answer. A longer period of time on the job is obviously better. Go with the best that you can do.

Four weeks is not enough. If anyone thinks that 30 days is enough to show employment/financial stability - well, I can DEFINITELY so no, it is not. Work a few months and prove you can hold a job and prove how much you are actually making. Thirty days means nothing.
