Eligibility to Sponsor
To be a sponsor you must be a U.S. citizen or national or a lawful permanent resident. If you are not the petitioning relative, you
must provide proof of status. To prove status, U.S. citizens or nationals must attach a copy of a document proving status, such as
a U.S. passport, birth certificate, or certificate of naturalization, and lawful permanent residents must attach a copy of both sides of
their Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551).
The determination of your eligibility to sponsor an immigrant will be based on an evaluation of your demonstrated ability to
maintain an annual income at or above 125 percent of the Federal poverty line (100 percent if you are a petitioner sponsoring your
spouse or child and you are on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces). The assessment of your ability to maintain an adequate
income will include your current employment, household size, and household income as shown on the Federal income tax returns
for the 3 most recent tax years. Assets that are readily converted to cash and that can be made available for the support of
sponsored immigrants if necessary, including any such assets of the immigrant(s) you are sponsoring, may also be considered.
The greatest weight in determining eligibility will be placed on current employment and household income. If a petitioner is unable
to demonstrate ability to meet the stated income and asset requirements, a joint sponsor who can meet the income and asset
requirements is needed. Failure to provide adequate evidence of income and/or assets or an affidavit of support completed by a
joint sponsor will result in denial of the immigrant's application for an immigrant visa or adjustment to permanent resident status.
