Q. Can anyone tell me what the "Poverty Level" is in the U.S? I believe your intended has to be making more than 125% over this level,is that right ? Also, does that figure change if there is a child involved?
A. I just ordered a new form I-864 (affidavit of support form that takes
effect 12/19/97) off the u.s. immigration website (took about a week, by
the way), if you want to order one there you can, but you have to write
it in, they have a place for that...it's not listed yet.
Anyway, attached to this form they sent me are the income requirements:
household size--100% of poverty line--125% of poverty line
2 ------ $10,610 ------ $13,262
3 ------ $13,330 ------ $16,662
4 ------ $16,050 ------ $20,062
5 ------ $18,770 ------ $23,462
6 ------ $21,490 ------ $26,862
Note: alaska and hawaii have slightly higher requirements...I suggest
you order a form if you want to know this information it is FREE...the URL to order the forms is:

Just to let you all know, that if you submitted your I-129F to Vermont INS, they are currently working on petitions received in January.
This info is straight from the horses mouth
