ok thanks...but do you think it''s also a good idea to send the joint sponsor AoS by mail directly to the consulate in advance once we get the interview date. I say this because I heard that the Co already knows whether he or she will deny or not, so i guess im a little freaked out since i rather him/her get the joint sponsor docs in advance to look at to at least make up his/her mind during the interview. 

Not to the consulate.

How to calculate current incom

Hi there...I got a joint sponsor! After so much stress, I got one so im so thankful to the universe for shedding some light for me at the end of the tunnel! I prepared the new I-864 to add to my old one now. The lady who is helping me currently works and received SS retirement benefits too. For 2019 salary, she gave me her paystub where it says YTD $26,393.14 (works part-time) + $12,000 SS benefits income. All I need to do is take her gross SS benefits and add it to that YTD $26,393.14 salary to give me her 'current annual income' right? I think I have this figured out with your previous help. She also has a side business, but I am not sure at this point how much she will put down as earning for 2019 taxes since it's coming up, she doesn't seem to put down much for her business earning based on her few tax returns in the past...it was like $475 on her last tax return on one of her business Schedules. She'll have around $38,200 of annual income, so I hope it's good for sponsoring my husband as 'household of 2' which is by poverty guideline minimum of $21,137. Just wanted to confirm that on her paystub YTD is her annual income right? i had to look up what YTD was so wanted to quickly confirm that's what it means...her gross annual income. 

 

 

I already explained how to calculate current income.  It is NOT 2019 income or income for any calendar year.  It's what the income will be going forward 12 months from today, at current pay rate.
