If you get a 1099 instead of a W2, you are "self employed".  As such your "revenue" is only considered income (for immigration sponsorship purposes) when it appears on line 22 of an IRS 1040 form.  At this moment, your "current income" on the I-864 will be exactly the same as your 2017 tax return's line 22 figure.

Hi Pushbrk,

I don't know.  What is the figure on page 1, line 22 of your 2017 1040 form.  If it's less than the income requirement for your household size, and you don't have $3 in liquid assets for each dollar you are short in income, yes, you will need a qualified joint sponsor.

You said you are currently working? Do you mean that you are still self employed or you now are an employee making 36k?

Then you should be fine, I think. My 2017 taxes showed 20k because I only worked half the year. My actual salary is 41k.

 

Just make sure you file the I864 instead of the I864EZ at the NVC stage. The embassy told me this form was for qualifying based on current income or assets while the EZ was qualifying based on tax returns.

What is the figure on line 22 of the 2017 tax return?  How many in your household.  If you want answers that are meaningful, you must provide meaningful data.

You still haven't indicated your household size, but if only the two of you, then that would meet the minimum.  Depending on the country and other circumstances, that might work.  It's too close to call.

They Mumbai Consular Unit tends to require all three tax returns to show qualifying income, or they ask for a joint sponsor.  This kind of data is why we complete our profiles here and provide all the information needed to get meaningful answers and assistance.
