Kseniya, I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me with I-485 and other forms! Last week, my case was approved without an interview, and all this in 5 months, and today I received a green card. Thanks to you and your videos, you are simply saving us all 😇this is invaluable help. Thank you so much for what you do for all of us!🙌
Hi,Ksenya! Thank you for so detailed videos! However I still have a brief question: I am a petitioning sponsor using a joint sponsor. Should both our spouses submit I 864 A just because each of our households filling taxes together? Thank you in advance!
Should I include my income as an additional datapoint if my wife makes about 3x the required income (but she made 2x and 1.5x in the years before that)? Especially because the income and assets we mention on i-485 are a combined total of hers and mine
I am preparing all of the forms for my dad. I am a citizen and so is my husband. I don’t work but husband does and we file taxes jointly. So is he the joint sponsor? Or I don’t need a joint sponsor because we both are listed on the tax form and the income is ours not just his?
I am retired and am falling just a very small amount under the required $25,000.00 per year income, with my social security benefits. I cannot get anybody to joint sponsor. What else can I do to increase my income just enough to get through the minimum income requirement?
Hi Kseniya ! With the help of your videos, i have submitted green card packet already and now im being requested I-864. Though not sure if my Sponsors ( wife) income is actually enough for sponsorship, and me being principal immigrant, i make enough money, but dont have social number assigned yet, so my assets and income cant be added to it ? I wanted to see if i upload some proof of my income , bank account statements, ownership of assets would actually help in this case ?
Kseniya. I will be filing for Form I-485 only as a K1 visa holder. I am the sole beneficiary, and my spouse provides me with all of his income from his job, and his salary exceeds the poverty line. I would like to know which support affidavit form I should use?. I hope you will make a detailed video for filling out the new edition of Form I-485. I am confused. Thanks for the videos; I learned a lot.
Hi My name is Philip. I follow your videos all the time. I filed form I-864 on my own. The USCIS Director responded and sent me an RFE (Request for Evidence) and advised me that she could not determine that my I-864 form sponsor is qualified. Is it possible that you could give me some guidance. I am willing to pay for your help.
Hi Kseniya, just wondering. My husband and i filed our income tax return separate and i am petitioning my parents, and i wanted to add him as my sponsor. Do i need to put him as joint sponsor or household? And is it I-864A? Hope you reply. 🙏
In my case my daughter who is citizen has not enough income but my elder daughter who is on H1B Visa can fill I-864A for me ? they live same address ! I am Canadian citizen . Thanks
Hello Sir, I am from Pakistan. I have an F4 visa case with a Priority Date of July 2003, and a Documentarily Qualified (DQ) date of December 2023. My case is now complete, and the Affidavit of Support has also been completed. I have now opened the case for my 2 sons. Please kindly let me know if, when the Affidavit of Support for my 2 sons is required, a new Affidavit will also be required for me in 2024. I had hired an agent in New York, and they informed me that a new Affidavit for me will be required along with my 2 sons'. Please kindly confirm this. I am very worried. Reply
What can I do if my daughter is the US citizen asking for me ( the foreigner father living outside the US ) and she doesn't reach the 25k a year because she is a college student with a part time job?
Hi, first of all, your daughter has to be over 21 years old, then if she doesn't reach the 125% of the poverty line for current year, you have to find a Joint Sponsor whose income has to be more than 125% of the poverty line but not for himself, is neccesary to take into account his household for exemple if is married or have childrens
Please help me clarify; my daughter is the petitioner born in the states but doesn’t make enough income. I have earned the 40 credits but my wife has 25 credits and she is unemployed. Can we both turn in the I864W form?
It is not clear that if I am eligible (40 ssn credit) for I-864W as a beneficially (i.e. immigrant) whether the sponsor (i.e. petitioner) still has to file I-864? Please note that the petitioner is a student and doesn't have enough income to support. in other words should we file both I-864W (immigrant) and I-864(petitioner)?
my i-130 filed on last feb and is still stucked on USCIS, is it normally take this long for a USC to get with spouse? almost 2 years of wait time and is still not being reviewed.

Could you possibly go through the i601?
Can you use the immigrant spouses income? Wife citizen filing for husband immigrant .we file joint taxes and live in same household.

Hi Kseniya, just wondering. My husband and i filed our income tax return separate and i am petitioning my parents, and i wanted to add him as my sponsor. Do i need to put him as joint sponsor or household? And is it I-864A? Hope you reply. 🙏
Hey! My wife and brother-in-law will be sponsoring me. Both resides in the same house. Which form should be filled by my brother-in-law as co-sponsor?
I864A is a contract between sponsor (WIFE) and household member (BROTHER). Your wife is your sponsor!
In my case my daughter who is citizen has not enough income but my elder daughter who is on H1B Visa can fill I-864A for me ? they live same address ! I am Canadian citizen . Thanks
