I just wanted to make sure I have this right, if you guys can double check with me. If I don't have the $31,375 annual income required for a household of four to sponsor my spouse, then I can use other assets like a savings in a bank account. If I make $22,000 a year I would subtract that from $31,375 which is $9,375 and then multiply that by 3, because a spouse only needs 3 years to get citizenship. That would be $28,125. And if I have at least that in savings I should meet the AOS requirement. Right?

Yes, that calculation is correct and would meet the minimum level required for an I-864.

The IO will make a public charge decision based on the totality of the circumstances. Just meeting the minimum may or may not be sufficient.
