Filling out the affidavit of support form

You may use your home as an asset when completing the affidavit of support. The home will have to be appraised. Only the net value of your home can be used. This is the appraised value less any mortgage owed or other lien on the property.  You could only use your child's social security income if your child is at least 18 years of age. Your child would need to sign a Form I-864A. You can read more about the affidavit of support at http://myattorneyusa.com/sponsoring-for-immigrant-visas-or-adjustment-of-status.
