Hello all, hope I can find some help here. It's for a friend. The situation is as follows. My friend is sponsoring both his parents for an adjustment of status. Both his parents are in the same application for the adjustment. He was wondering how will he go about the primary immigrant and the family member section. He has his dad as the primary immigrant and his mom as a family member. Can someone verify if this would be correct? Also I know he has to submit two i864 one for each because he already got a checklist from USCIS. So my question is... will both I864 look the same with the only exception where it ask which immigrant is he sponsoring????  And how would the household size look like in this scenario? I would appreciate any help please.

Any help would be appreciated. @pushbrk Maybe you can give me some feedback or anyone?

Each applicant needs their own I-485 and $1,225 fee.  Yes, each I-864 will be the same as the other except the personal information of the person being sponsored.

 

Each parent will also need their own I-130 and $535 fee.

So will there will be q principal immigrant and a family member? Will this information be the same on both? Or will the principal immigrant change on each i864?

No family members will be listed on either I-864.  Your actual household count on each affidavit will count only one of them unless they are already your dependant.  If they are, just enter 1 or increase the number of dependants by one.

Ok so just primary immigrant and no family member right?  And let's say he has 2 kids and his wife, that's a household of 4 there plus one parent. So the total will be 5 household members on each affidavit? He does not claim his parents.

5.  At the interview, the IO will apply the income requirement for a household of 6 though.

Another question came about. So in this case my friend has both a w2 and a 1099. What would he put as his total income for the previous 3 years if hes using the tax transcripts?

The line labeled total income is always the correct number.
