I-864 Help Needed - Sponsoring both parents

 Share

Hi,

I have sponsored both my parents for their green card and we are at “Submit Supporting Documents” Stage in the NVC Process. I am filling out I-864 and find it quite confusing. I am doing this on my own and I want to do this right the first time so I have a few questions

Back Ground: Two individual I-130s were submitted for my mother and father. They have two separate Case Numbers and Invoice Numbers from NVC

Question: Do I need to submit two separate I-864 for my mother and my father?

If yes to above, then lets use mother for example below

Question 1: Part 3 - Information on the Immigrants You Are Sponsoring

(#1) Do I check #1 and leave number 2 alone? If this then Part 3 # 7 will be 1 (Number of immigrants you are sponsoring on this form) correct?
OR
(#2) Do I leave #1 lone and Check # 2 and list both my mother and father? They will be traveling at the same time i.e. within 6 months of each other If this then Part 3 # 7 will be 2 (Number of immigrants you are sponsoring on this form) correct?

Question 2: Part 5: Sould I include my both parents here or just one. 

I am sponsoring both my parents so should I put (2) or(1)? 
Self (1)
Hubby (1)
Our son Daughter (2)
Total 5 or 6? 

 

I'm the sole sponsor. I'm currently Unemployed and collecting unemployment benefits and my current year income is in line with 125% of FPG. Is this (being unemployed) gonna be a problem to sponsor my parents. 

 

Thank you so much in advance for your help.

Thank you so much in advance for your help. 

You currently "make" 125% of the poverty guidelines for a family of 6? Don't expect to be able to sponsor two elderly parents. How are you going to afford approx $1400 in health insurance for them a month?

 

Yes, you would need to separate I864 as they are two separate petitions.

If you are unemployed, then your current income is 0.  It does not matter how much you made before you became unemployed.  Unemployment benefits do not count because they will not continue long-term.  Get a job with a salary high enough to support your entire household + new immigrants, or get a qualified joint sponsor.
