Polyamory and K-1 visas

Well.. he can claim her on his US taxes if he provides more than half of her support, she has lived in his residence for the entire year and she makes less than the minimum required to file a US Tax return...

More than 50% support is the only requirement, of course housing support is a form of support, so it would be difficult to show that type of support if the couple didnt live together the whole year. This is according to the IRS helpline.

Isn't there a box on the Federal 1040 that asks if you're being someone else is claiming you as a dependent on your tax returns? If your boyfriend is, as the original poster has stated, how is this being done? They're not married. She's not receiving full-time medical care. She's not under the age of 18. How? I am very curious. If the original poster has to submit her previous tax returns as required for a K-1 petitiion, it's going to say the person who the person is that has claimed her on their taxes. Am I right? Or have I missed something?

I did not file taxes, and have not for several years. I don't have a job. My bf files as head of household and I'm listed as "other dependant." Hope that clears it up

But it will say on the I-485/I-864 forms, address of co-sponsor & other members of household...

Also, even though you cannot support your fiance, you will be required to fill out an I-864 yourself. Might take some explaining if the addys are the same & you haven't filed in years. They might wonder how can you possibly support someone if you don't work, don't file taxes, aren't a student yet you are being supported, and NOT by a family member.

Who gives a ####### about the "loophole permissibility” of this situation in the eyes of the USCIS?

Tell them about it, and it will become unacceptable in short order.

You mention the case facts, such as the boyfriend is the sponsor, and rejection will be imminent. All elements of this case infer deception, either way.

It is morally and socially unacceptable, simple as that. Anyone supporting this relationship is as fcuked up as the OP.

The OP asked for advice, here it is: Get a life! One mate per person is acceptable here.

I was a bit taken aback at the forcefulness of that post, William!

It's crowded in this 1% though...

So are you graduating soon? Most GRAD SCHOOL students have worked ast some point in their lives...and filed taxes.

How can you support someone if you are still in college? Even with a co-sponsor there are MANY red flags here. Be prepared to face them. Not to mention you 'lol'ing your own student statement - are you even mature enough to have 2 men?

PS: A requirement of the K1 is having met in the last 2 years - have you?

I believe she mentioned she was in graduate school. Speaking as someone also in grad school, you make it work. I will be oh 27 when I graduate... Its called student loans, savings and my fiance being the main support. I add my voice to the 1% however

If she hasn't filed taxes for years, I hardly think she has savings...

Hence the need for another man to help support?

I can't help but think of a "tag team" thing happening often in this future household. One tires out, slap the hand of the other to take over.

Not that there's anything wrong with it. I think about if there are children from this 3-way. What do they call the other guy? Dad? Uncle? Grandpa?

Um, reality check, as in my title......This is freaking wrong! What are you people drinking?
