I864 versus I864A - help

[allis_salah 0]

Hey guys, I apologize in advance. I know many questions may seem redundant. Here's my situation. My husband came on a K1 visa, we have our adjustment of status interview coming up. My financial situation changed between application and interview. So basically when I submitted I believed we would meet the income threshold on our own - and now for last year (2016) we aren't going to meet the threshold. My parents are willing to co sponsor. We all live in the same house. My parents file their taxes together. My husband and I filed ours together.

 

I have income, my husband has income... I believe for 2017 we will be good income wise but I still want to have my parents cosponsor to cover our butts..... I am beyond confused and I don't want to show up with the wrong paperwork at the interview.

 

I file an I864 - that I understand. I am reading some people saying that the first parent would also fill out an I864 and then the second parent would be an I864A...... is that right?

 

Again I really apologize I want to navigate the information myself. I was originally reading it as I would be an i864 and parent as i864A. Any and all advice/clarification is greatly appreciated.

You file i864 as main sponsor, no matter how much you make.

Your parent files i864 as joint sponsor.

Your other parent files i864a to consent 1st parent to sponsor you.

But when I'm filling out the paperwork, and it asks for additional sources of income in Part 6 - it gives you space for up to 4 people. After that it says that i864As must be filled by these people. Should I not be listing my spouse and parents in that section?
