AOS I-864 FILLING QUESTIONS

[sky88 31]

Hi All,  

This community has been so helpful. 

I have a lot of questions about the I-864 form and reading the instructions is more confusing.  

For the background, my husband and I filed a joint tax return for 2022 so we do not know how this affects the answers. We are sponsoring my husband's mother. We meet the income guidelines.  

 

I-864 PART 1 

Do I need to select 1.a. “I am the petitioner. I filed or am filing for the immigration of my relative”? or 

Do I need to select item 1.d. “I am the only joint sponsor”?  

 

I-864 PART 6  

Item 7. My current individual annual income is:  

Should I include only husband’s income or combined income?  

 

Also, do I need to include my info on the below if we are using combined income? Do I have to file a separate I-864A?  

 

 

 

Thank you in advance, 

Stefania

1. He is the sponsor, not you. He files I-864.

2. You file I-864A since tax was done jointly. 

3. It'll be combined income because the tax was filed as such.
