I-864 Help please

[dehiguey23 52]

As I was filling out the I-864, I ran into a huge question.

Im the one who works in my household, but my wife is unemployed and I know that’s ok.  But we do the taxes every year as “Married filing jointly”.  She’s sponsoring her parents to come to the USA and now are to the point of the I-864 and I-864a for me since I’m the one with the income.

 

Question is:  On part 6, 24.a, where we put the tax year and amount, does she put $0.00, on her I-864, and do I put the actual amount on my I-864a since I’m the one who works?
 

Also, on part 5, #7 it says “If you have siblings, parents, or adult children with the same principal residence who are combining their income with yours by submitting Form I-864A, enter the number here“, but no where does it mention “Spouse”.  Since it’s mentioned in part 5, #3, is that why it’s ok to not put a 1 on #7?

 

Thank you so much to all who answer!

Also, on part 5, #7 :  would be 0 , count each person only once  , you are #3 on the I-864 .

On part 6, 24.a,   put the total income that is on the married filing jointly tax return you both file together each year on both forms.
