Affidavit of support
Hi Folks
My future father in law has said he will provide affidavit of support, he has sent me the form filled out however we missed the fact that we need evidence
I have researched and I think we need a copy of the latest tax return and that will cover it
Can anyone confirm exactly what we require as "evidence"
Thanks
Martin

Re: Affidavit of support
A Joint Sponsor needs to provide all the same information the Sponsor does.
Original signed I-864
Proof of US citizenship or PR status
Most recent tax return (or most recent 3 years if the most recent one is weak)
Might help to have proof of current income (a few recent pay stubs or letter from employer, or whatever other proof he has of current income, depending on where the income is coming from)
If using assets, proof of the value of the assets.

Re: Affidavit of support
It sounds as though your research may not have included reading the I-864 instructionsm where the required supporting documentation is identified throughout the detailed instruction for those items of information that require documentation.
No. What is required "exactly" will depend on the information that was provided on the I-864, and none of us here know 'exactly' what that information is.

Thanks for the information
Glad we came on the forum... we filled in an I-134!

Re: Affidavit of support
It would have been a good idea to have reminded us of that, I for one don't have every poster's case memorized. But in this case I will admit that it would not have changed the essential elements of my response.

Re: Affidavit of support
Sorry Jeff I meant we filled in the wrong form, we filled in an I-134 instead of the I-864
We are filing for a K-1 visa

Re: Affidavit of support
Once you are inside the USA, married, and filing AOS, then the USC fills out an I-864.
