What is the I-864 form?

1, specifically economic security. Form I-864 is the material needed to apply for a visa in the United States.

2. The guarantor submits a support relationship on behalf of the sponsored immigrant applicant. The guarantor and the guaranteed usually have a family or work relationship. The new regulations aim to reduce the burden on the guarantor, but at the same time ensure that every immigrant applicant needs the support of a guarantor with sufficient assets. At the same time, financial guarantee requires immigrant applicants to prove that they will not become an economic burden for American society (such as welfare support from the federal government or state governments).

The main points of the new regulations are as follows:

1. Reduce the original documents to be submitted: The guarantor now only needs to submit the original evidence about the latest personal tax bill, instead of providing the tax bill for the last three years, the salary slip for the last six months, or the letter from the employer.

2. Introducing a new EZ economic guarantee (I-864EZ form): EZ economic guarantee is a shortened version of the original economic guarantee, which is suitable for specific guarantors, that is, guarantors who only rely on personal work income to meet the conditions of economic guarantee.

3. New I-864 Economic Guarantee Exemption Form (I-864W Form): This form is designed for immigrant applicants who prove that they do not need economic guarantee. The proof process is formatted and time-limited.

4. Cancel the financial guarantee requirements for specific immigration applications. For example:

The immigrant applicant has been working in the United States for forty quarters;

According to the Child Citizenship Act of 2000, adopted children are eligible for citizenship as long as they enter the United States.

For applications that do not require financial guarantee, a new I-864W form should be submitted; In addition to the above two types of applications, there are two other types of applications that do not require financial guarantee, which are detailed in the I-864W form.
