Affidavits of support for parents - one for each

Hi everyone, I need to prepare affidavit of support for my parents. Since they had separate I-130s, now I need to prepare separate I-846 for each of them. The question is when I fill an affidavit in for parent #1  - how do I include a parent #2 to show that a household size will include both of them? In Part 3. "Information about Immigrants you are sponsoring" I have to mark #1 "I am sponsoring the principal immigrant", because option #2 "I am sponsoring the following family members immigrating at the same time" is also saying "do not include any relative listed on a separate petition". Since parent #2 has a separate petition, it seems I can's add them in this section. But then when I get to a Part 5. "Sponsor's Household Size" there seems to be no place for a parent #2 to be added as well. But I am sponsoring both parents and they will be members of a household, what is a correct way to do this?

 

Thank you

Are your parents in US or outside? 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

Thank you  

Each AOS family number will be you+your spouse and dependents + 1 

 

At this time you aren’t actually sponsoring anyone.. Not until the visa is granted and activated 

 

wrestled with this same question  a few years ago.. same scenario

This does seem how a form is designed, it just feels like this way I would not be fully disclosing how many people will be in my household… I have enough income for both of them, just don’t want it to seem like I am hiding something

You are not hiding anything. This is the correct way of reporting your situation. My son filed for both of us (parents) and this is how he successfully completed and submitted  the AOS for for each  of us   No RFE
