So my husband came in November on a K1 visa, we got his ssn, got married early Dec got all the paper work needed for his AOS including the money order. Now my problem is the affidavit of support papers it has alot tax return questions that I don't have. I've never done taxes due to always being a dependent on my moms taxes because I'm a student. i have a part time job now and I am expecting a W2 now but We can't wait til I get that in the mail due his deadline. i want his legal status to always stay up to date. But this is the one part I don't know, I'm assuming I need a co sponsor? How do I go about that? Who is eligible for that? How big of a deal is the affidavit? One of the reasons we wanted to be together was so he could help me finacially, but now Idk how to sponsor him? Someone help, we're running out of time.

Use the same joint sponsor as you did for the K1.

if you didnt file taxes i suggest you get a co sponsor even if you make above poverty guidelines (we got a RFE for that reason)

anyone can be a co sponsor, as long as they make above poverty guidelines and had filed taxes.

affidavit of support is a very big deal, your co sponsor will have to file form I-864 and provide tax documentations and supporting documents.

Should I be sending current paystubs? I've had that job for 6 months now. And what all documents should I be sending for my part since I don't have tax returns? And I can use the same co sponsor I was going to use for the K1 app because they never asked for it but now for AOS it's a whole booklet. What all does my co-sponsor need and what do I need?

Also I don't think I make above poverty line I only make $10/hr part time.

Are you saying that you didn't have an affidavit of support for your K1?

It doesn't matter if it's the same joint sponsor whether or not anyone checked the papers. As long as they qualify- they can be your joint sponsor.

That's correct I did not have to submit an affidavit of support for K1, I had it ready for when they would ask me for it but they never did so I just kept the information but it's much different now. The i-864 is much more in depth and do not know what all documentations needed on my behalf and the co-sponsor

Gotcha, I've heard of a lot of cases where it's not asked for during the interview.

If you read through the adjustment of status guides it should let you know everything that's needed!

Whether you are sufficient is determined by your current income (the salary of the job you have right now), not whether you have filed tax returns in the past. If you didn't file tax returns because your income was less than the filing threshold for those years, then per the I-864 instructions you attach a statement stating so.

Thank you guys for your responses!!

So paystubs, statment of why I didn't file and a joint sponsor is pretty much everything I need.

Should I include current W2's, my employer has a way of showing us that before it's mailed, I didnt know if that would be a benefit for this as well?

You don't need a joint sponsor if your current income is enough.
