I-864, cosponsor question, and police cert. question

[tobben15 0]

Ok, so I filled out the I-864. I have no income for the past two years from the States as I have been living in Europe. My mother is the cosponsor and she has filled out the form. I have her transcripts from the past 3 years plus copies of W-2s and the like. My question is: She files her taxes jointly with my stepdad does he need to fill out I-864a, even though my mom makes more than enough over the poverty guidelines?

My second question is about police certificates. We are waiting for police certs from Czech Rep. and Slovakia, but we live in Poland and applied for one at the embassies. If you have been in a similar situation (applying from another country), how long approximately did you wait?

Thanks for any info you can give us.

I'm sorry I can't answer about the police certificates. In the UK, we were told after we applied that it would take 40 days. Were you not given a time frame for yours?

As for the I-864 for your mom as joint sponsor, as long as she has her W2s that prove which part of the income is hers, no I-864A is needed. It would probably be easier (maybe better?) to have her include your stepdad's income on her I-864 and have him fill out a I-864A.

At the Slovak embassy they told my husband about 4 weeks and they didn't tell him anything at the Czech embassy.

As for the I-864, my mom had already filled out all information while I was visiting in July, so I justed wanted to double check with some people on here. I'm just hoping it won't be a problem. Since I have the W-2s I don't think it should be, I also have her last 6 months pay stubs too. So I think everything should be covered.

Hoping those police certs come soon, even though we probably won't leave Poland for another 6 months.

Oh okay, I see about the I-864. As long as she filled out it out with just her income and you have the W2s that show her income, then you should be fine.
