USCIS Form I-864, Affidavit of Support Under Section 213A of the INA (12 pages, 219 fields, OMB No. 1615-0075), is the legally binding financial sponsorship contract required in most family-based green card filings (concurrently with Form I-485 or uploaded to the NVC CEAC portal after Form I-130 approval). The sponsor must show U.S. domicile and household income of at least 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (100% for active-duty military sponsoring a spouse or child).

Form I-864 is the 12-page Affidavit of Support that accompanies nearly every family-based immigrant visa and Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) case. The petitioning relative who filed Form I-130 (or Form I-129F after a K-1 marriage) must always sign a Form I-864 as the primary sponsor — even if their income is zero and a Joint Sponsor files a second Form I-864 or a household member combines income on Form I-864A. Because USCIS publishes i-864.pdf as an owner-encrypted Adobe LiveCycle Designer 6.5 XFA hybrid form (175 text fields, 41 checkboxes, and 3 dropdowns), filling it in Apple macOS Preview breaks the Part 5 household size auto-sum and causes all 12 pages to open blank in Adobe Acrobat. JustFill preloads the official USCIS Form I-864 blank in your browser so sponsors and immigration paralegals can complete Parts 1–8 cleanly.
Every family-based green card applicant (and employment-based applicant where a family member owns 5%+ of the petitioning business) requires a legally binding 12-page USCIS Form I-864 (Affidavit of Support Under Section 213A of the INA, Edition 10/17/24, 353 fields). Because USCIS exports i-864.pdf from Adobe LiveCycle Designer 6.5 with owner encryption and XFA scripts that compute Part 5 household size, filling Form I-864 in Apple macOS Preview leaves Part 5 Line 8 blank and causes all 353 fields to open empty in Adobe Acrobat or fail National Visa Center (NVC) CEAC upload.
JustFill loads the official 12-page Form I-864 blank directly in your browser so petitioners, joint sponsors, and immigration paralegals can enter Part 5 household counts and Part 6 IRS Form 1040 Total Income figures cleanly and export a flattened PDF ready for USCIS or NVC.

What each section of Form I-864 asks for. JustFill’s AI will detect these fields automatically when you upload the PDF — review the breakdown below so you know what to enter.
Checks whether you are the petitioner (Item 1.a), an employment petition relative owner (1.b/1.c), the only joint sponsor (1.d), or one of two joint sponsors (1.e), followed by the principal immigrant's full name, mailing address, country of citizenship, DOB, and A-Number.
Lists spouse and children immigrating with or within 6 months of the principal immigrant (Part 3), and the sponsor's full name, mailing and physical addresses, country of domicile, DOB, SSN, citizenship/LPR status, and active-duty military status (Part 4).
Calculates total household size without double-counting anyone: number of immigrants sponsored on this affidavit (Item 1), yourself (Item 2 = 1), your spouse if not already counted in Item 1 (Item 3), dependent children (Item 4), other tax dependents (Item 5), prior Form I-864 sponsored immigrants still under obligation (Item 6), and Form I-864A household members (Item 7).
Current employment status, employer name(s), current individual annual income (Item 7), any Form I-864A household member income (Items 8–19), current total household income (Item 20), and Total Income (Form 1040 Line 9, or AGI on Form 1040-EZ) from the most recent federal tax return (Item 24.a) and optional 2nd/3rd prior years (Items 24.b–24.c).
Completed only if Part 6 current household income is below the Form I-864P threshold: net cash, savings, real estate equity, and stocks/bonds (must equal at least 3x the income shortfall for spouses/minor children of U.S. citizens, or 5x for other categories).
The enforceable Section 213A contract terms, sponsor contact info, and handwritten ink signature (Part 8, Item 6.a), Interpreter certification (Part 9), Attorney/Representative G-28 preparer signature (Part 10), and Part 11 Additional Information.
A fictional U.S. citizen petitioner in Chicago completes Form I-864 to sponsor her husband's concurrent Form I-485 adjustment of status, with a household size of 2 and $78,500 in current W-2 salary verified by her IRS Tax Return Transcript. All names and numbers are fictional.
Part 1, Item 1.a checked — I am the petitioner who is filing or has filed Form I-130 · Principal Immigrant: SAMPLE, CARLOS M · DOB: 11/03/1992 · Country of Citizenship: Mexico
The Form I-130 petitioner must always file Form I-864 as the primary sponsor under Item 1.a.
Sponsor: SAMPLE, ELENA R · Country of Domicile: United States · SSN: •••-••-8412 · Part 5: Item 1 = 1 (sponsored spouse) + Item 2 = 1 (yourself) + Item 3 = 0 (do NOT double-count spouse) → Item 8 Total Household Size = 2
Avoids the classic Part 5 trap of counting the sponsored spouse in both Item 1 and Item 3.
Employed as: Clinical Analyst at Sample Healthcare Group · Item 7 Current Individual Annual Income: $78,500 · Item 23.a Checked (filed federal tax returns for 3 most recent years) · Item 24.a Most Recent Tax Year (2025) Total Income: $76,200
Exceeds 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines on Form I-864P for a 2-person household, so Part 7 (Assets) is left blank.
Item 1.a checked · Signed in black ink by Elena R. Sample on 10/21/2026
