18 years building faith

hello, just wanted to share my story. I came from Trinidad when I was 9 after my parents seperated and lived in NewYork.

Went to school and graduated hs then took 2 years in college. Got married in 2007. my hubby thought it was going to be easy to apply, but because he is disable his income was insufficient to sponsor me ( then in 2012 Obama passed this deferred action, hallelujah!!
but i cant just look back with all smiles, my mom almost 60 doesnt have her documents, more must be done..!! she's a domestic worker, baby nurse .

Be encouraged, things could be worst, we are alive and there is always hope.

Welcome to the board! I always love meeting fellow West Indians (I'm Jamaican). I'm hoping for immigration reform for my mother, as well.

Have you been approved for DACA, yet?

If you do not meet the financial qualifications, the income of certain other household members can be added to your income level if they sign a contract on Form I-864A, Affidavit of Support Contract Between Sponsor and Household Member, agreeing to make their income or assets available for the support of the relative applying for permanent residence.
If you still cannot meet the financial qualifications, another person must complete a separate affidavit of support to become a joint financial sponsor of the person’s immigration. The joint sponsor must meet all sponsorship requirements separately, including the minimum income requirements for his or her household, and must be willing to assume, along with you, financial liability for the sponsored immigrant(s).
All sponsors must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents, be at least 18 years old, and be living in the United States (including territories and possessions) when they file the affidavit of support.
