At Kasturi Law, LLC, our Naperville immigration and nationality law attorney helps individuals throughout Illinois and prepare their I-864 forms, Affidavit of Support required by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services for specific immigration applications.

The I-864 demonstrates that an immigrant applying for a visa or adjustment of status has adequate financial support and is unlikely to become dependent on government assistance.

It is typically required for family-based immigrants and some employment-based immigrants. The form is usually completed by the U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident sponsor who is petitioning for the immigrant.

By signing the I-864, the sponsor agrees to provide financial support to the immigrant if necessary. This obligation lasts until the immigrant becomes a U.S. citizen, has worked 40 qualifying quarters (approximately ten years), leaves the U.S. permanently, or dies.

How Can an Immigration Attorney Help with My I-864 Form?

Form I-864 is critical to many immigration applications, particularly for family and certain employment-based immigrants.

Our skilled immigration attorney can help you prepare the I-864 Affidavit of Support to ensure you understand the eligibility requirements and the necessary financial thresholds you need to meet to sponsor an immigrant.

Among other details, the sponsor must show that their household income is at least 125% of the federal poverty level for their household size. If the sponsor’s income is insufficient, a joint sponsor can submit an I-864. We can help with that, too.

In addition, we will:

  • Accurately complete the form, providing all required information and avoiding common mistakes that could lead to delays or denials.
  • Assist you in gathering the required supporting documentation, such as tax returns, W-2 forms, pay stubs, employment verification, and proof of income.
  • Submit the form to the appropriate authorities and follow up on additional information or documentation requests.

If you have a complex financial situation or issues such as prior denials, our skilled immigration attorney can help you address these complications effectively.

No law says you cannot complete the I-864 on your own; an immigration attorney’s expertise can ensure the process goes smoothly and increases the likelihood of a successful outcome.
