I-864 Part 5 Question 6 previous marriage

[fiftytwo05g 0]

Hello,

 

I am petitioning my wife via consular process in Japan, and I am sponsoring her with a joint co-sponsor because of my low income. I am stumped on part 5 question 6 on I-864.

 

I petitioned and sponsored my ex-wife via adjustment in the US more than 13 years ago, and the question is asking me if I sponsored anyone else that is now a lawful permanent resident.

 

1.) My ex-wife is now and has been a US citizen for a few years. I sponsored her with a joint sponsored more than 13 years ago. Would I still need to mark "1" and include her on part 5 question 6 when both me and the joint co-sponsor fill in the forms?

 

I'm assuming this applies if she is still a permanent resident, but as a US citizen does it still apply?

No.  Your I-864 obligation ended for the ex when she became a USC.
