Hi there
My wife is a US citizen and we have been married in South Korea for three years. We are planning to move to the US but apparently the supporting affidavit does not include Korean income so we will have to use liquid assets.
The guidelines state: You must show that your household income is equal to or higher than 125% of the U.S. poverty level for your household size.
But to use foreign assets the amount must equal five times the difference between the sponsors income and the poverty level.
Does this mean the pooled assets of myself and my wife must = 5x the poverty level? My reading of the guidelines is that as my sponsor and as a US citizen my wife's liquid assets need only be 3x the poverty level.
Any clarity would be appreciated
Thanks in advance
