I want to share my experience and thoughts on the topic of the Affidavit of Support, especially regarding the financial requirements for the K-1 visa.
Currently, I work for DoorDash, and my previous job was at Amazon, which was actually my first job. I managed to save up about $20,000 before quitting Amazon, and now I'm focusing on saving more money while working with DoorDash. I make it a point to spend as little as possible each month.
While doing some research on the K-1 visa process, I came across information about the salary requirements for the visa. I also learned that independent contractors are not allowed to meet these financial requirements. However, I’m a bit confused about this “independent contractor” part. Additionally, I’m concerned because I don’t have a sufficient amount of money reflected on my tax return or in the IRC documents.
Given this, I'm wondering if I would need additional support or if there’s a way around this financial requirement, considering my situation.
