i-864 Affidavit of Support Income Question

[spatial 0]

So my wife is filling the Affidavit of Support, as she will be sponsoring her mother. Her income comes up just short of the minimum required, so she's using my income as well.

Anyway, in part 6, it's asking her if she has filed an income tax return for the last 3 years? Technically, she has, because we have always filed jointly. However, she has only restarted working 2 years ago. Should we say 'yes' to this question anyway? And if so, is it safe to assume that every income question thereafter would imply our combined income, rather than her own income? Thanks.

So, I'm unable to find any answers elsewhere in this forum. Anyone think they have an answer?

hi

if she has been filing jointly with you, then the answer is yes, even though she wasn't working the first year
