In being the i-864 financial supporter for your husband's case, U.S.C.I.S. or consular officers (if your spouse is interviewing for permanent residence overseas) must be convinced that there is sufficient financial support to meet the public charge requirement. Your obtaining a form of Medicaid along with your son will not be the financial determinative factor in whether your spouse can immigrate. Other factors such as income, assets, closeness of cosponsor, financial state of cosponsor, etc. would all weigh in the balance.
