  • Help filling form i-864 if sponsor is unnemployed

    Hello!

    I'm currently filling form I-864 for my mom and dad. My husband and I do our taxes jointly. I'm a homemaker with $0 income and my husband is the one working but what he makes doesn't meet the poverty guidelines so we are using a family member as a joint sponsor. My questions are about how to fill the form....

    1. Part 6 asks "My current individual annual Income" I should put "$0" because I'm unemployed, right?
    2. Below that question says "income you are using from any other person who was counted in your household size" do I have to put my husband's information even though his income does not meet the poverty guidelines?
    3. If I do have to put his information then I will have to fill an I-864A for him?
    4. If I dont have to put my husband's income what do I put where says "My current annual household income"? is it going to be "$0"? or does it have to be my husband's income because we file joint tax return?
    5. where it ask for my most recent Federal income tax return should I put our joint tax return income?

    Thank you.

    This is just the sum of your current individual income and the incomes of the "person 1", "person 2", etc. whose income you are counting. In your case, you are not counting anyone else's income, so you don't have "person 1", "person 2", etc., so the sum will just be your individual income, which is 0.

    yes, because that's your tax return

    This is my personal opinion and is not to be construed as legal advice.
