Applying for a green card for a family member often involves an Affidavit of Support. This shows you can financially support them.
Use Form I-864EZ instead of the regular form (I-864) if you meet ALL these:
-
You’re the only sponsor.
-
You’re sponsoring just one person.
-
It’s your spouse, child under 21, or parent (you’re 21+).
-
Your income (W-2 wages/salary only) meets the minimum requirement (125% of poverty guidelines for your household size).
Benefits of I-864EZ:
-
Shorter and simpler to complete.
Important Notes:
-
Read the instructions carefully to ensure you qualify and provide accurate information.
-
If you don’t qualify for I-864EZ, use Form I-864 instead.
-
Consider consulting an immigration attorney for personalized guidance.
