I944 household question

[Karina & Auli 11]

So I am working on my wife's 1-944.  I am making sure I am answering each question carefully....The number of individuals in the household which should include stepchildren.  I am assuming I add MY 3 kids because they are legally her stepchildren, BUT she has no financial responsibility over them as they are shared between my ex and I.  Am I on the right train of thought here?  Thanks.

Hi! 

I am in a similar situation.

I am wondering, what did you end up doing?

Thank you!

I-944 is not required anymore (until they bring it back again)

Hi,

 

As the other person just said, the I-944 requirement has been put on hold.  You are soooo lucky as that form was the biggest pain in the butt!!!  Regarding the question though I put down 5...myself, my wife (applicant) and my 3 children.
