Hi. We got married almost 2 months ago here in US. My wife and I are trying to fill up the forms but we need some help. My is wife US Citizen, here income was $25,540 in 2006. However she has 2 cute daughters (not from me) and she has their custody. Finally, we have a total of 4 in our household. The poverty line for 2007 for 4 people is $25,812. There is less than $300 between her income last year and this year's poverty line for 4 people.

-Should we find a joint sponsor for the remaining amount since she does not have any assets? or

-Should we fill it as is? Is USCIS so picky about the amounts?

My second question is, in form I-130 - section D/22 says;

22. Complete the information below if your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status.

Your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident at USCIS office in: _________________________________ .

Obviously, we'll apply AOS in US and we live in San Antonio. There is an USCIS office here. Is it where we are supposed to apply for my AOS?

I'd appreciate if anyone could answer these...

Thanks.

What matters is her CURRENT income, not her 2006 income. Yes they are that picky so if her CURRENT income is not sufficient and she has no assets, then you would need to get a joint sponsor. Unless you have income?

You need to look up which office has jurisdiction over your county of residence. Go to www.uscis.gov, click on "services & benefits" and then "field offices" and make sure your county is listed under the San Antonio office.

Absolutely, what counts is the total income she earns currently. You don't want to risk it and put last year's income since it won't be enough for a household of 4. Get a co-sponsor if you need one.
