I-864 vs I-864EZ

[rock4blaqkhearts 12]

Filed for both my parents with separate I-130 forms. One has been approved and one is still pending. I was doing the affidavit of support form for the approved one and I didn't know which form to use. One of the requirements for the EZ form is that "I am using my own earned income". Does that mean if my husband and I filed MFJ (married filing jointly), that's not acceptable since it includes spouse's income? Also another requirement is that "the sponsored immigrant  is the only person immigrating based on underlying visa petition". Since I filed for them separately, does that matter? Thanks.

That specific requirement is met by your parent because there are no derivative applicants on a petition for IR-5.

Ok, great. Thanks.

But what about the income part? We both earn income so if we filed  MFJ, does that disqualify me from using the EZ form?
