Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Is your priority date current? When the I-130 was filed (date) and in what category (who filed for you)? If a priority date is not current yet, no one can file I-864. It also makes no sense to do.

First, a priority date should become current.

Second, YOUR petitioner files the I-864 Affidavit of support, and you apply for adjustment of status, if eligible.

Then, if a petitioner's income is not sufficient, you can use a co-sponsor (another person) as a joint sponsor in order to meet the Affidavit of support requirements.

If you�d like to schedule a confidential telephone or email legal consultation, need advice or help, please let me know and I�d be glad to help you. Contact email address: Attorney [@] law-visa-usa.com or LubaSmal [@] yahoo.com . Or you can TEXT a request for a consultation with an Attorney to 1-402-238-1238.

I offer legal consultations and can assist in matters of the U.S. federal immigration law to clients from all 50 States and internationally.

If you would like to request a follow-up confidential advice on your specific situation and regarding U.S.A. immigration-related issues, we can offer a consultation by telephone or email to clients from all States and globally.

The I-864 relates to a case with an immigrant petition, so you need that for the I-864 to be a solution. The only scenario would be bonafide marriage to a U.S. citizen spouse or if you had a US citizen child who is at least 21 years old.

The above is information and not legal advice. It does not form an attorney client relationship. If you would like further information, feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 818 609 1953.

In I-864 by itself will not help you. You need to have other basis to adjust your status. Feel free to contact me at 323-549-9385 or email me at [email protected]
