Assets do not count as income. Income is what is being paid by an employer (or in a trade, self-employment, and the like) and counts to insure that the sponsor is able to meet the continuing cost of daily needs, etc. through ongoing financial support, without decline into poverty.
hello everyone,
Did you take check out affidavit of support form, if you don't believe me what I said , you better believe me now. My Aunt didn't meet the poverty line because he didn't have any help from her husband but she declared the value of her house, her money in the bank and even the stimated amount of her valuable jewelries.NVC approved her support for her father. Anyone of you don't believe in declaring assets, it was stated in the form.
In order to count towards meeting the 125% of poverty guidelines, assets must be 5 times the shortage, in this situation $600x5=$3000.
Also, your own income or assets if any, can count towards the family income, assuming that you have lived in your wife's household for at least 6 months and you have filed tax returns even if while working illegally.
