hi everyone,

I haven't posted in a while, probably since I'm enjoying my time with my husband. But now it's time to get the AOS paperwork ready.

Anyway, my question is: how do you determine the annual income that will be used that you declare on the I-864? From looking at my taxes, I am unsure about the amount I would put. Is it the "wages, salaries, tips etc." amount or is it the "adjusted gross income" amount? The adjusted gross income is a bit higher (so I'm hoping it's this one). Which amount did you guys put?

Thanks guys :)

Wages Salaries and Tips (gross income) :thumbs:

Looking at my taxes, FORM 1040, "wages, salaries, tips, etc" falls under line 7, "total income" is line 22, and "adjusted gross income" line 37 is a different one. So I'm not sure which amount of these three to use.

ucla_cutie26,

The I-864 asks for two different income figures - current income (on an annualized basis) and past income as reported on income tax returns for the past 3 years. Line 23 asks for current income, you won't find it looking at past income tax information. Look at your most recent pay statement, if you are employed, or the equivalent documentation depending on where your income comes from.

If you are self-employed and do not draw a regular paycheck from your operation then last year's income tax statement may be the best you can do. Form 1040 Line 22.
