As many have known, “family immigration” is popular among the applicants, who are Beneficiaries (Intending Immigrant), with family members that are U.S. citizens or green card holders while meeting all the application requirements. Then, the Beneficiary will be eligible to apply for family-based immigration through family relations. When you submit the family-based immigration application, the Sponsor has to prove that he/she is financially capable to support the Beneficiary’s life in the U.S.. Subsequently, strings of questions follow, such as: who is eligible to be your sponsor? What is the minimum income requirement for the Sponsor to prove his/her financial capability? If the Sponsor’s income falls under the requirement, can you find another Sponsor? Can you find other financial means to replace income to prove the Sponsor’s financial capability? In this article, we will discuss and further explore the frequent questions surrounding the Sponsor’s capability and enhance your understanding of the system and regulations on the eligibility of the Sponsor. We wish you the best of luck in the process so that you may reunite with your loved ones very soon!
