Really need some help with I 864

[Amelia21 1]

I really need your help , I can’t find the answer searching so I decided to ask We’re getting the papers together for adjustment of status , we’ll be using a joint sponsor. She files taxes jointly with her husband for the section that says last 3 years of taxes does she write what she made individually or what they both made as in what’s reflected on the tax transcript? 

Also she makes way above the poverty guidelines does her husband still fill out I864a ? If so what’s the supporting documents to include ? 
 

please

1. What's reflected on the tax transcript
2. Never dealt with this but I think the other spouse has to sign I-864a as his or her income is included in the IRS return. I will let other members chime in on this one. I have only dealt with single spouses

Thanks for responding, so I would put in the last 3 years tax information the amount of both their incomes combined correct since they filed jointly . 
for the I864a I’ve found so many conflicting information on here but I guess I’ll just include I guess it won’t hurt if they don’t need it .

You will write down exactly what it says on the Total Income line of the tax return transcript. It doesn't matter if it was filed jointly.

 

If she makes enough by herself, then husband is not needed and doesn't need to fill out 864a. But, you must send her W2 as well (not only tax transcript).

This.

 

I-864A is not required from her husband, but since taxes are joint, she needs to provide her W-2 along with the tax transcripts to show what her income is alone. She can also provide pay stubs for proving her sole income along with the W-2. You need to point out to them what her income is separate from her husband's.
