Affidavit of Support Question K1 VISA

[onepr1cklypear 16]

Just a house keeping day today. 

 

The fiance has not been employed for the past 2 years as he has been in school. However, has since started working this June 2020. And makes well over the poverty amount. 

 

My question is: What documentation is sufficient to prove that he can support me? Or would it be more indicated to have a joint sponsor fill out the I-134?

 

I've read mixed things about this. Anyone have a similar predicament? 

 

Thank you!

He must include supporting documentation such as pay stubs or periodic pay statements which will provide evidence for his current annual income.  He can use even 1 pay sub to calculate annual income.  Annual income can be calculated by:

Income per pay period x number of pay periods in one year= annual income

Weekly income x 52= Annual income

Monthly income x 12= Annual income

If he knows that his pay will increase within a year, he can include the increased amount if he has documentation to verify that (such as a contract, etc).

Do you think that we need to also provide his previous year tax return despite him not having an income?

What what I see, the instructions are to include it if he is self employed.
