Explanation Letter for I-864w /RFIE (merged)

[sky459 6]

got my rfie in the mail today

They need :

- i-94 arrival/departure record and the passport page showing admission to the us.....Ive already send that

- Birth certificate translated in english

- I-864 instead of I-864w

the first 2 i don't have a problem with. but why do i need the i-864?

my ssa statement shows i have 35 quarters already

my husbands ssa statement shows he has 40 quarters already

now we have been married 4 1/2 years now and according to the instructions i can be credited by my husband.

Since we've been married i can be credited with the quarters that he earned, hence each year one will get 4 quarters for earnings.

So by my calculations we have ( 4 years x 4 quarters =16 quarters, since we've been married ) mine 35 +16 + his 40 = 91 quarters.

i know its confusing, but i dont understand why we have to file i-864 now and we dont have enough earnings according to the poverty guidelines, because my husband is/was self employed and now disabled

i dont know what to do now, should i resent the I -864w again with explanation and maybe a certified ss statement ?

And they didnt even ask for the i-693

i know this is an unusual circumstance, but any help would be appreciated

I am not too sure, but it seems I-864 is for primary sponsor (your spouse) and also for a joint sponsor, while I-864W can be used by a primary or joint sponsor if they want to include a family member's income. They must be immediate family (parent, child, spouse) of the sponsor/joint sponsor and live in the same house.

Did you include a cover letter to explain what was in your package?

hi

were you both legally working in the country? do you have proof of having worked all those quarters legally in the country?

i lived here for 12 years before with a greencard and working.. i accumulated 35 quarters then, and my spouse ( us,citizen ) has 40 quarters. yes we both legally worked. and i send in both my husbands and my social security statements ( downloaded from the website ) showing how many quarters each of us have.

have you consulted with an attorney to see if it is enough?

Maybe only use your husband's income if he meets the income requirements and submit only I-864 and his supporting documents (taxes and stubs) and include a cover letter???

i have written up an explanation for resubmitting for I-864w, i f i decide to do that.

could yall look over it and tell me what yall think, or if need to change anything.. any opinion is appreciated.

Explanation for Resubmitting form I-864w

The Intending Immigrant has accumulated 35 Quarters ( See enclosed Social Security Statement ).

The US Citizen Spouse has Accumulated 40 Quarters ( See Enclosed Social Security Statement ).

The Intending Immigrant is Illegible to be exempt from form I-864

because The Intending Immigrant has earned or can receive credit for 40 quarters, by the Intending immigrants own earned quarters and By being credited under section 213(a)(3)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) with quarters worked by His/Her spouse during the marriage.

A combination of Paragraph A. and Paragraph B.

On form I-864w instruction page 1 ( How is Form I-864w Used ? )

hi king,

i shouldnt have to submit I-864, besides my husbands income doesnt comply with the poverty guidelines. thats why we filled form I-864w and also because we should be exempt , hence having a combination of quarters combined

Make sure to provide a marriage certificate or something to show which years of your husband's credits were during your marriage, and explain that in the explanation.

Thank you for reminding me for that

Do you think resubmitting the form i-864w would be suffice?

hence the letter states for " the Patitioner must submit form I-864 with all documents ( inc. Taxes ) "

i am worried if i just resubmit the form I-864w with explanation and evidence , i ll be denied !?
