Hello, so I am helping out a friend of mine she was born here in the US but moved abroad when she was a few months old.... she wants to request for her husband of 12 years and get him a green card, my question is... how would the affidavit of support will work in this case, she has never filed her taxes because she has never lived here up until now, she does have assets of 300k+ so would listing those assets would be enough? (they are on both her husbands and her name) or she would still need a co-sponsor or something.

TIA

She has to file taxes no matter where she lives.

She has to have a US Domicile.

She needs to write a explanation as to why she didn't file taxes then (ie never had any income). The assets MAT be enough- many embassies will only accept US based assets.

The main issue will be she needs to prove that she intends to move to the USA before or at the same time as the husband.
