I-864A Household Member (Questions)
MSSF replied to CatLady0901's topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
You need to file i-864A if she is household member and lives in same residence and want to includer her income. if she files separate taxes, lives separate, then fill i-864 as joint sponsor -
You need to contact NVC through online query form and update them about the marital status of ur sibling. In the mean time. Make sure she updates her status when she gets married and want to add spouse. Also, make sure she keep divorce documents to show termination of marriage. If it snot in English, must have it translated into English

I would recommend camille file i-130 as a petitioner. Wait for the application to get approved, later when nvc ask you to pay fees, visa fee and Affidavit of support fee, you pay as a petitioner from ur account. Aunt can transfer you money to ur account to pay the fees. For actual affidavit of support, camille will fill 1 affidavit of support, i864 as a petitioner and aunti will fill one as joint sponsor.

According to my knowledge, ur niece can apply for adjustment of status once her parents receive greencard or citizenship

Because petition was approved before turning 21. i have a question for you @vladar and it will be a big help for us in our case. My siblings have kids who r very under 18. If we add them to “follow to join” what we have to do when want to process their visa? I mean what application we have file and how much fee and paperwork involved in it. Please share details and whether its good idea to choose follow to join. Another thing, do we use AOS u initially had with your application or you will have new Affidavit of support?

Hello everyone, we r currently processing i-864 and ds 260 for siblings who have kids under 18. When we paid AOS fee and visa fee for principal applicant online, it shows all derivative members under him too. 1) Do we have to pay fee for all of the derivatives applicants? It includes 1 spouse and 3 kids under 18. 2) do we have to fill seperate ds260 for all kids under 18 and spouse? it also includes a derivative who is 4 months only, what about him? Separate ds260?

My dad applied for my siblings who are married had 1 or 2 kids, priority date 2011, just received NVC notification now. We were able to add derivative applicants, means more kids under them. There will be an option for you to add. In the mean time send query to nvc through inquiry form to add your kids to your case. Send their birth certificates to NVC with your case number and date of birth. My siblings did the same on birth of each new kid.Hope that helps!

According to my knowledge, if your initial petition was approved before kids turned 21, it should not be a prb. I could be wrong and experts can give u a better answer. @appleblossom@pushbrk

My dad applied for my sibling who were all married in 2011 and they just asked them for AoS and other documents 1 month ago, in September 2024. Your priority date is not current. You will only hear from NVC when ur priority date becomes current.

How many house hold members u have and how many u sponsoring? You can use your checking or savings account as well but the difference of income lets say u r lacking 10k in income, your balance needs to be 10k*5=50k balance in ur bank account. If you meet income guidelines, don’t include assets because it will get more complicated
-
Yes, I completely agree with comments above. Combine income. The only thing is when they ask you on i864 if you sponsored anyone else before, you will mention yur husband there but no one will be counted twice. If its u and ur husband then household members 2 and u r sponsoring 1 makes total 3.

@Bunty24my dad applied for my siblings who are married and have kids, just like your friends mom sponsored her kids and thy have depends, kids who are derivate applicants. Did you select follow to join for them or accompany ?

What is follow to join and how it works?
MSSF replied to MSSF's topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
We have 4 families we are filling affidavit of suppti-864 for. 4 applicants have 3 or 4 derivative members under each applicant. We were thinkiNg to bring pricipal applicant here and then do follow to join for derivavtes so they come after six months when principal is already settled. Thats why i am asking. Consulted with lawyer but not clear answer. Thats why i am wondering consequences for choosing follow to join -
Hello, we are working on i-864 an there is an option of follow to join. what happens if we select follow to join option? Do we pay fee now? Do we need sponsor now? What happens after principal applicant is here in USA and we WANT to bring derivative here? WHAT paperwork we will have to do? how long more does it take to get visa? do they get interviewed with principal or later? is it a good option? whats your experience in follow to join?
