QUESTION
Will above poverty level accounts in China be enough for the US consulate to show that we will not be government dependent?
Asked on Sep 04th, 2012 on Immigration - Texas
More details to this question:
I am a US citizen in China on a tourist visa. I have been here for five months. I have filed an i130 for my husband. We are approved and waiting the interview. My taxes will not show above poverty level. I was self-employed working part-time. The father of my child was supporting us. My current husband and I have well over the poverty level in our accounts here in China and plan to submit these with the affidavit of support. I have no joint sponsor or anyone to ask.

NO, it has to be US based income or liquid assets that can be well documented.

You will want to have the affidavit of support and supporting financial documents reviewed by an attorney prior to submitting them.

The immigrant must prove that they will not become a public charge, and the affidavit of support is certainly the first step. If they turn him down for the visa, feel free to contact us as we can help to "appeal" the decision.
