I received this letter today:
Based on the documents submitted with Form 1-864, Affidavit of Support, for the petitioner/sponsor, the income did not meet 125% of the poverty guideline for the petitioner/sponsor's household size.
Submit evidence of assets that meet the standards listed below or obtain a different joint sponsor.
Assets must equal the stated difference between the petitioner/ sponsor's household income and 125% of the povertyguideline.
Assets must equal the difference for applicants filing as orphans.
Assets must equal three times the difference for a spouse or child of a United States citizen.
Assets must equal five times the difference for all others.
Evidence of assets includes:
Bank statements covering the last 12 months (statements will be averaged over a 12 month period) or a statement from an officer of the bank or other financial institution in which the sponsor has deposits, the account balance averaged over a 12 month period, and current balance;
Evidence of ownership and value of stocks, bonds, and certificates of deposit;
Evidence of ownership and value/equity of other personal property and dates acquired;
Evidence of ownership, a recent licensed appraisal or county tax assessment, and any mortgage/lien or lien release of any real estate.
If you decide to obtain a joint sponsor they will need to:
File Form 1-864, Affidavit of Support (revision date 07/02/2015)
Provide copies of their most recent Federal income tax returns
Provide copies of all supporting tax documents (W-2s, 1099s, Form 2555, and tax schedules)
Provide evidence of their status as a United States citizen, United States National, or Lawful Permanent Resident
Note: The total income (line 22) on IRS Form 1040 is used to determine qualifying income for a sponsor, not the "Gross Receipts" (line 1) from IRS Schedule C or C-EZ."
I have a joint sponsor, (my brother) However he files taxes jointly with his wife. His income is enough to meet the poverty guidelines.
My question: Since he files jointly tax returns, does his spouse have to do the I-864A and submit her documents as well.
Thanks for your help
