Form I-864, Form says houshold = 3 when it's only two?

[Balamban 113]

Form I-864 question

Line 29: Enter total number of immigrants you are sponsoring....

            I entered 1 for my K-1 immigrant, now my spouse as we have married.

Question: What’s with Part 5: Sponsor’s Household Size where they ask

Line 2: Yourself   So I put a “1” here.

Line 3: If you are currently married, enter “1” for your spouse.

Well, I am now currently married but if I put "1" in Line 3 in the form then my household size changes to an incorrect 3.

Question: Even though I am now married to my K-1 immigrant should I not enter “1” on Line 3?

Note:  I am unemployed, attending college full-time.  My assets are ok if it’s 3 x 125% FPL but close if it’s 5x 125% FPL.

My household size is myself and my immigrant wife.  How do I make the form show the proper household size of 2?

 

Suggestions please?

Ignore the Line 3. Basically by using "1" for your K-1 fiance (now wife) that covers the married line #3.

Quote

NOTE: Do not count any member of your household more than once.

If it is only you two, total should be 2.

Btw, for a K-1 spousal use of assets only is it 3 x  125% Fed Poverty Level, or 5x?

 

Do I need to send support documentation for every category?  Copies of bank statements?  401K, Property valuation?

 

I have a 2nd house with no debt so I'll use that and send copies of assessment data.  Do I need to also send info on my primary house?

Key phrase: "NOTE: Do not count any member of your household more than once."

The wife is included via item #1. Unless there is another spouse in your household (which would have its own problem, both immigration-wise and personally! ), #3 should be 0.

3x minimum for a spouse

You must provide documentation for all sources of income or assets being used in the I-864. If you don't include a particular asset in the I-864, then no documentation for that asset is needed.

Nope...just the one being used as an asset. Although it might not be a bad idea to include a short statement that it is a secondary home.
