Affidavit of Support (I-864)

[ms1115 2]

Hiii,

I should have gathered my financial documents earlier in the process, well, I had most of them ready but there's some tweaking and correcting I have to do before I send it (this is causing a delay )

Anyway, I have two questions that are confusing me a bit on the Affidavit. Both are from "Part 6. Sponsor's Employment and Income". Question 2. "my current individual annual income" I don't know what to exactly put here... I was told to put the total income (#22 from 1040), however, I began my current job July of '15, so obviously it doesn't technically reflect my "annual income". Now, should I add my annual gross amount based on what I really earn? (I have current paystubs and my employment letter, which only lists my gross biweekly earnings, but once calculated one will be able to tell how much I earn), or should I just stick with the total income (#22 from 1040)?

Also, questions 19 a-c, I know it mentions "total income (adjusted gross income form 1040ez)" I have 1040. I was also told to include amount #22, not the actual adjusted gross income...

These are probably common sense (and maybe Im overthinking them), but the person who's guiding me actually works with this and has helped families to bring their relatives to the U.S so I feel kinda bad if I question them, but Im just getting a bit paranoid and anxious with wanting to submit these forms ad not get an RFE...

You put the annual salary of your current job, not anything from the tax return (unless you're self-employed).

Also, questions 19 a-c, I know it mentions "total income (adjusted gross income form 1040ez)" I have 1040. I was also told to include amount #22, not the actual adjusted gross income...

You need to use the "total income", which is line 22 on Form 1040. For 1040EZ, the "total income" and "adjusted gross income" are always the same, and the line is labeled as "adjusted gross income"; that's why you would get the "total income" from that line if you're using 1040EZ.

Thank you for the clarification!!!
