QUESTION
Can I sign an I-864, AOS, using a Power of Attorney?
Asked on Oct 23rd, 2014 on Immigration - Colorado
More details to this question:
My son is the sponsor/petitioner for an immigrant visa for his foreign-born spouse. They currently live overseas and are hoping to return to the US as soon as the visa is approved. I have a general durable POA for my son. I am a joint-sponsor and also completing an I-864 to include with the sponsor's I-864. My son sent his packet to me, but the version of the I-864 he signed and sent to me does not have the bar code at the bottom of each page. According to the NVC, the I-864 needs the bar code in order for them to scan and process. Can I complete a new I-864 for him and sign it using my POA?

Hi. That will not likely work. I would have him send it again. However, I sent one that didn't have a bar code and it was ok. Have the other pages with the bar code , if you send the version you have now.
