I-864 abroad, joint sponsor

[indigorunner 1]

Hi, I have been combing this forum for answers and it has been very useful for solving most questions, but I sadly couldn't find an answer for a few of these questions so I was curious if somebody knew the answer to any of them.

 

On Part 1: I am the petitioner, but am also one of the joint sponsors (I am under the presumption that my father will file another I-864, and my mother will do a I-864A), so I am a bit confused on this part. I am guessing I would choose 1.e: "I am the first/second of two joint sponsors.", but I am not entirely sure and just wanted to double check.

 

Part 3 is asking for family members. I am only petitioning for my wife, do I write her name in "Family Member 1"? I am guessing not.

 

Part 6 and 7, I do not have any income in the US as I have been living abroad for years (hence using my father as sponsor). In this case, do I check #6, "Unemployed"? Also, do I leave my "current individual annual income" as $0, along with the income descriptions? Also, I am guessing the savings/assets are only the ones in the US right? So, in our case, $0?

 

Much thanks to anyone who can help, it is much appreciated.

You're the main sponsor (as the petitioner) even if you make $0. 

 

Father can do I-864 as a first joint sponsor as well as mother under I-864A

The terms are a bit confusing but the instructions are clear.  Have you become an A Student of those instructions???

 

You are the petitioner, not a joint sponsor.  The rest you have correct.  You don't "leave" your income as anything.  You enter $0  You can state and document assets from anywhere, but to be considered for qualification, they must be liquid.  A Student...Instructions.  Giturdun.
