"Purpose of Form :
To show that the applying immigrant has enough financial support to live
without concern of becoming reliant on U.S. government welfare."
If you are a dual eligible I would say there was not enough financial
support.
If your new spouse is bringing employment with her OR going to be looking
for work once in the states will be a factor as well.
Now you might think that if you own your own home (mortage free) and have
the bills down to a managable level with plenty of money left over, you
could swing it.
If that's the case, you can save 70 bucks by having the paperwork filed
outside of the country.
I would strongly advise NOT to import a wife though. I haven't heard very
many positive stories about such activitys.

Ok, so as long as my potential future wife can show that she is ready and
able to work even
though my income is only SSDI, I should not have a problem obtaining a visa
for her?
what does "means tested" mean? I see this word with regard to income
requirements.

A "means test" is applied to determine eligibility for certain public
benefits, e.g., SSI. If your income and resources exceed certain
limits, you cannot be eligible for SSI.
Similarly if you have the "means" to pay your creditors full value,
you cannot be eligible for bankruptcy relief.

You'd be a lot better off dumping your overseas girlfriend and hooking up

give you, Stu and his dog a treat worth remembering.

might meet on the net, sight unseen (face to face). How can a person expect
a relationship to flourish without first having shared experiances and
gotten to know the person over a long time doing lots of things togather?
I know a fellow who got into a online relationship, now his wife is gone,
his kids are gone and nobody has anything to do with him. And from what I
hear his new sweety moved in, took him for everything he had and ran off
with a fellow from the bar who had more money to spend on her. A few weeks
after she left he discovered that she was wanted in three states for the
same type of behavior.
He was warned too, but you know how it is (can't give good advice when a
stiffy is doing the thinking for a person).

Thanks for that idea.... like I said we can make it but I just have to get
through this paperwork legal stuff..... so she can get over here and obtain
a job.
She is partially disabled also, but can work !

I just found this on a law firm website:
So maybe some relative could help me sponser her,,,,,,,,,,,,
The US citizen must provide an affidavit of support, guaranteeing the
support the immigrant spouse for at least 10 years or until the beneficiary
becomes a US citizen.
In guaranteeing this support, the sponsor must meet the annual income
requirement of 125% of the current federal poverty guidelines or show that
he or he has enough
assets to support the immigrant spouse.
If the sponsor cannot meet this income requirement, then the sponsor may
find other joint sponsors
p
If we did not have such a bunch of pigs on the Soopreme Kourt, you
might be able to challenge this as unconstitutional, since the
constitution supposedly guarantees equal tratment of Citizens, but
then you would need money to pursue the case. Maybe ask a relative
of yours to co sponsor her? Might work, but I would not count on
anything with the corrupt jerks running immigration and the rest of
our gubbermint. Bribing someone in immigration might work, haha, but
I am not suggesting that, haha. Very funny how Americans think that
all the other countries are corrupt, except the USA.

I wouldn't marry a foreign bride for all the money in the world. I've
never heard of one working and once here, they get pretty grabby on
whatever it is you have (had).
