Hey. For the Income for the last 3 years, you mentioned it would be line 9 on the 1040 which is “Total Income”. , however the I-864 explicitly states “Adjusted Gross Income” which is actually line 11 on the 1040 form. I think it should be the AGI?
@KseniyaInternational6 ай бұрын
@@MT-dy9ec Look at the question again: the form specifically says total income. AGI only for form 1040EZ which doesn’t exist anymore.

I got an RFE on this form. What I didn’t realize originally was the form is broken and that the household size automatically says 1. I’ve gone through all my documents and can’t understand how anything is wrong except for that. It’s crazy how the USCIS can’t just tell you what was wrong they have to sent a 3 pages document saying one or more of these things is wrong with the form. If this is the problem first of all they should just say your household size isn’t accurate please redo or just fix their damn form on their government site.

Now since i don't live and work in America and haven't filled out any tax form all these years, what proof s of income we should present in the affidavit of support. I am now the petitioner and sponsor in the form. I know this is a very rare case but I really appreciate it you let me know what information you have regarding our rare case.

Hello Kseniya @Kseniya International Thanks for the video. I have one question that I couldn't find through the video. I recently got married to a US citizen. She is an RN and has been working in the hospital since mid-2022. I am on an F1 visa. I am currently pursuing my 2nd master's here in the US, and I currently don't work. (No CPT). But I worked until last year in October on STEM -OPT before my second master's began, so I had income and filled taxes to show for the last 3 years, which is above the federal poverty threshold. So my qtns is in the form I-864: 24. c. 3rd Most Recent? My wife started working professionally around mid-2022 and has a 1040 total income higher than the federal poverty threshold for 2022. and 2023. but 2021's total income (~10k) was way below the fed poverty threshold. So, what do you think you could recommend? Should we enter that total income (10k) into 24.c. in the 3rd most recent total income box a no?

USCIS primarily considers most recently filed tax returns and proof of current income

is it fine just to write that total income for 3rd most recent year right?@@KseniyaInternational

Hi, my husband received an RFE for I-864 saying that they couldn’t determine if the petitioning sponsor is qualified. That if needed we could use a co sponsor which we did! We sent 3 years of the co sponsor’s tax records and w-2’s. It was a lot of paper. And he makes 81,000, is married and has 2 kids. Hasn’t co sponsored anyone else and no other dependents. He files taxes separate from his wife and she claims their kids as dependents. Should he still count her and their kids in this form? We did, we total 5, him, wife, 2 kids and my husband who he’s sponsoring. This time we’re thinking on just sending the last year of tax returns and w-2. Do you think we should send I-864 for the petitioner again as well? He’s our son, 21. He filed taxes for 2022 and 2020 but not 2021, he was required to file but didn’t. Is that a problem? What should we answer where it says if he was required to file or not? This form I complicated. We had sent the petitioner’s 2years of tax transcripts and w-2’s.

The sponsor/co-sponsor must always count their spouse and children regardless where they live and even if they’re not claimed on returns. Only send whatever USCIS is asking for. If they mention that there are issues with petitioner’s I-864, then you must also send it.

Hi dear ken, thank you so much for your effort and time , my daughter applied for me but she is a student with no income so as i understand she will fill the form I 864 first and then when USCIS request a joint sponsor the co joint will fill the form or both the petitioner and the joint sponsor will fill the same form together
@KseniyaInternational10 ай бұрын
Do not wait for USCIS to request a joint sponsor. If you’re using a joint sponsor, you must include their affidavit of support and all the evidence in the initial packet.

If you're doing concurring filing with i-485 and i-130, does the US citizen sponsor need to include another copy of his birth certificate? Give he is already including it for form i-130?

hi Kseniya, thank you for your video its very helpful I have some questions I 'm the petitioner for my parents, my income is not enough , I file tax jointly with my wife, I will add I-864A for my wife, also I want to add my uncle as a joint sponsoring , -in this case I have to add my uncle in my form I-864, -in His form I-864A question (part 1) I will choose 1.e. 2nd of two joint sponsors ( my wife will be 1st joint sponsor ) or how I can do it . - for my uncle he file his tax with his wife, if his income enough he does't have to include his wife income in his I-864A, so for the question 24.a the total tax income in his tax form he can put the total income in line 9, or he just put the individual annual income as part 6 q. 7. Thank you so much
@KseniyaInternational7 ай бұрын
If you’re using a joint sponsor (uncle), it makes no sense to add a household member to your income as petitioner because you only use household members to supplement your income as the petitioner to make it enough to sponsor.
