Spouse Visa eligiblity

[mnoman 2]

Hi guys,

 

I have some quires regarding CR-1 Spouse Visa can you please give me some suggestions.

 

1-  my wife is US citizen and we lives together in UAE can she still apply CR-1 Spouse Petition.

2- As she is a house wife and never had any job her mom want to sponsor but she does not have 3 years tax returns she recently got a job from 4 months ago and she is earning $17,500 also she has $70,000 cash in her account her house hold members are 3 (husband, son and her) can she still sponsor us as a co sponsor or do we need some one else for co sponsor.

 

thanks.

1. Yes. She just need to show proof of re-establishing domicile in the US.

 

2. Your wife will still fill out the I-864 and then your MIL fills out another I-864. Your MIL have a household size of four when you include the intended immigrant. That means she needs a salary of $30,750 to be the joint sponsor or if she wants to supplement her income with assets, she needs five times the difference. So in your case, the MIL need at least $66,250 in assets plus some change for good measure. So yes, sounds like she can but please be aware that assets are not always accepted. She needs to prove that the assets have been in her possession for at least a year.

Basically she has this cash assets from past 2 years and she has all that proofs from her bank statements.

 

Joint sponsor can be any one from the US citizen like i have my friends there who can sponsor us because they have good salary and everything.

If you have a better qualified joint sponsor, with a plausible reason for acting as sponsor, go that direction instead of the MIL.

If her MOM Yearly Salary is more than  $31,000...It should be fine i guess

Since the post you quoted, clearly states the MOM's salary as only $17,500 your post only adds to the clutter.

She is earning $17,500, is what was stated.  I take it, English is not your first language.

You mentioned your mom is married- does her husband work, and would he be willing to join his income to hers for sponsoring?

[mnoman 2]

no her husband has no job basically they are not together but legally they are husband wife and has a 17year old son so technically she has 3 house old member including her.

Nothing wrong with that, in any way, but please realize it becomes a handicap in proper interpretation of circumstances.  When circumstances are misunderstood, it's easy to muddy the waters with unhelpful or even harmful advice.  It's also easier for YOU to be misunderstood.  Please be careful to avoid adding to the clutter.  There may not always be somebody around to correct you.
