Money is the big deal. With inflation, much of which is under government control, it becomes harder to meet the income requirements each year. This includes both arbitrary as well as necessary fee increases.

[@abdoulfataou]

Thanks for your explanations. My situation is that I am currently working in the US with a working permit based on my asylum case. My wife does not make the minimum required. I make way more than the minimum requirement. I wonder if we can use my income in addition to hers since I live and work here in the US.

From what I have been told by my immigration attorney, as long as you meet the income guidelines, you do not have to show how much you have in savings.

So it only matters the amount thats in your savings. Im a full time student right now. Just asking
