 Part
			8.  Sponsor’s Contract 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
			Please
			note that, by signing this Form I-864, you agree to assume certain
			specific obligations under the Immigration and Nationality Act and
			other Federal laws. The following paragraphs describe those
			obligations. Please read the following information carefully
			before you sign the Form I-864. If you do not understand the
			obligations, you may wish to consult an attorney or accredited
			representative. 
 
 
			What
			is the Legal Effect of My Signing a Form I-864? 
 
			If
			you sign a Form I-864 on behalf of any person (called the
			"intending immigrant") who is applying for an immigrant
			visa or for adjustment of status to a lawful permanent resident,
			and that intending immigrant submits the Form I-864 to the U.S.
			Government with his or her application for an immigrant visa or
			adjustment of status, under section 213A of the Immigration and
			Nationality Act these actions create a contract between you and
			the U. S. Government. The intending immigrant's becoming a
			permanent resident is the "consideration" for the
			contract. 
 
			Under
			this contract, you agree that, in deciding whether the intending
			immigrant can establish that he or she is not inadmissible to the
			United States as an alien likely to become a public charge, the
			U.S. Government can consider your income and assets to be
			available for the support of the intending immigrant. 
 
			What
			If I choose Not to Sign a Form I-864? 
 
			You
			cannot be made to sign a Form 1-864 if you do not want to do so.
			But if you do not sign the Form I-864, the intending immigrant may
			not be able to become a lawful permanent resident in the United
			States. 
 
			What
			Does Signing the Form I-864 Require Me to do? 
 
			If
			an intending immigrant becomes a lawful permanent resident in the
			United States based on a Form I-864 that you have signed, then,
			until your obligations under the Form I-864 terminate, you must: 
 
			--	Provide
			the intending immigrant any support necessary to maintain him or
			her at an income that is at least 125 percent of the Federal
			Poverty Guidelines for his or her household size (100 percent if
			you are the petitioning sponsor and are on active duty in the U.S.
			Armed Forces and the person is your husband, wife, unmarried child
			under 21 years old.) 
 
 
 
 
			--	Notify
			USCIS of any change in your address, within 30 days of the change,
			by filing Form I-865. 
 
 
			What
			Other Consequences Are There? 
 
			If
			an intending immigrant becomes a permanent resident in the United
			States based on a Form I-864 that you have signed, then until your
			obligations under the Form I-864 terminate, your income and assets
			may be considered ("deemed") to be available to that
			person, in determining whether he or she is eligible for certain
			Federal means-tested public benefits and also for State or local
			means-tested public benefits, if the State or local government's
			rules provide for consideration ("deeming”) of your
			income and assets as available to the person. 
 
			This
			provision does not
			apply to public benefits specified in section 403(c) of the
			Welfare Reform Act such as, but not limited to, emergency
			Medicaid, short-term, non-cash emergency relief; services provided
			under the National School Lunch and Child Nutrition Acts;
			immunizations and testing and treatment for communicable diseases;
			and means-tested programs under the Elementary and Secondary
			Education Act. 
			
 
			What
			If I Do Not Fulfill My Obligations? 
 
			If
			you do not provide sufficient support to the person who becomes a
			lawful permanent resident based on the Form I-864 that you signed,
			that person may sue you for this support. 
			
 [Page
			8] 
			
 
			If
			a Federal, State or local agency, or a private agency provided any
			covered means-tested public benefit to the person who becomes a
			lawful permanent resident based on the Form I-864 that you signed,
			the agency may ask you to reimburse them for the amount of the
			benefits they provided.  If you do not make the reimbursement, the
			agency may sue you for the amount that the agency believes you
			owe. 
 
			If
			you are sued, and the court enters a judgment against you, the
			person or agency that sued you may use any legally permitted
			procedures for enforcing or collecting the judgment.  You may also
			be required to pay the costs of collection, including attorney
			fees. 
 
			If
			you do not file a properly completed Form I-865 within 30 days of
			any change of address, USCIS may impose a civil fine for your
			failing to do so. 
 
 
 
 
			When
			Will These Obligations End? 
 
			Your
			obligations under a Form I-864 will end if the person who becomes
			a  permanent resident based on a Form I-864 that you signed: 
 
			1.
			 Becomes
			a U.S. citizen; 
 
			2.
			 Has
			worked, or can be credited with, 40 quarters of coverage under the
			Social Security Act; 
 
			3.
			 No
			longer has lawful permanent resident status, and has departed the
			United States; 
 
			4.
			 Becomes
			subject to removal, but applies for and obtains in removal
			proceedings a new grant of adjustment of status, based on a new
			affidavit of support, if one is required; or 
 
			5.
			 Dies. 
 
			Note
			that divorce does
			not terminate
			your obligations under this Form I-864. 
			
 
			Your
			obligations under a Form I-864 also end if you die.  Therefore, if
			you die, your Estate will not be required to take responsibility
			for the person’s support after your death.  Your Estate may,
			however, be responsible for any support that you owed before you
			died.

			become lawful permanent residents of the United States;

			specific obligations under the Immigration and Nationality Act
			(INA)
			and
			other Federal laws. The following paragraphs describe those
			obligations.  Please read the following information carefully
			before you sign
			Form I-864.
			 If you do not understand the obligations, you may wish to consult
			an attorney or accredited representative. 
 
			What
			is the Legal Effect of My Signing
			Form
			I-864? 
 
			If
			you sign
			Form I-864
			on behalf of any person (called the intending immigrant) who is
			applying for an immigrant visa or for adjustment of status to a
			lawful permanent resident, and that intending immigrant submits
			Form I-864
			to the U.S. Government with his or her application for an
			immigrant visa or adjustment of status, under INA
			section
			213A,
			these actions
			create a contract between you and the U.S.
			Government.
			 The intending immigrant
			becoming
			a lawful
			permanent
			resident is the consideration for the contract. 
 
 
 
			Under
			this contract, you agree that, in deciding whether the intending
			immigrant can establish that he or she is not inadmissible to the
			United States as a
			person likely
			to become a public charge, the U.S. Government can consider your
			income and assets as
			available for the support of the intending immigrant. 
 
			What
			If I Choose Not to Sign
			Form I-864? 
 
			The
			U.S. Government cannot make you sign Form 1-864
			if you do not want to do so.  But if you do not sign
			Form I-864,
			the intending immigrant may not
			become
			a lawful permanent resident in the United States. 
 
			What
			Does Signing
			Form I-864
			Require Me to Do? 
 
			If
			an intending immigrant becomes a lawful permanent resident in the
			United States based on a Form I-864 that you have signed, then,
			until your obligations under
			Form I-864
			terminate, you must: 
			
 
			
 
			A.
			 Provide
			the intending immigrant any support necessary to maintain him or
			her at an income that is at least 125 percent of the Federal
			Poverty Guidelines for his or her household size (100 percent if
			you are the petitioning sponsor and are on active duty in the U.S.
			Armed Forces or U.S.
			Coast Guard,
			and the person is your husband, wife, or
			unmarried child under 21
			years of age); and 
			
 
			[Page
			8] 
			
 
			B.
			 Notify
			U.S.
			Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of
			any change in your address, within 30 days of the change, by
			filing Form I-865. 
 
			What
			Other Consequences Are There? 
 
			If
			an intending immigrant becomes a lawful
			permanent
			resident in the United States based on a Form I-864 that you have
			signed, then, until your obligations under
			Form I-864
			terminate, the
			U.S. Government may consider (deem) your
			income and assets
			as available to
			that person, in determining whether he or she is eligible for
			certain Federal means-tested public benefits and also for state
			or local means-tested public benefits, if the
			state or
			local government's rules provide for consideration
			(deeming) of
			your income and assets as available to the person. 
 
			This
			provision does not
			apply
			to public benefits specified in section 403(c) of the Welfare
			Reform Act such as
			emergency Medicaid,
			short-term, non-cash emergency relief; services provided under the
			National School Lunch and Child Nutrition Acts; immunizations and
			testing and treatment for communicable diseases; and means-tested
			programs under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. 
 
			What
			If I Do Not Fulfill My Obligations? 
 
			If
			you do not provide sufficient support to the person who becomes a
			lawful permanent resident based on a
			Form
			I-864 that you signed, that person may sue you for this support. 
			
 
			
 
			
 
			If
			a Federal,
			state, local, or private agency
			provided any covered means-tested public benefit to the person who
			becomes a lawful permanent resident based on a
			Form
			I-864 that you signed, the agency may ask you to reimburse them
			for the amount of the benefits they provided.  If you do not make
			the reimbursement, the agency may sue you for the amount that the
			agency believes you owe. 
 
 
			[no
			change] 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
			[no
			change] 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
			When
			Will These Obligations End? 
 
			Your
			obligations under a Form I-864
			that you signed will
			end if the person who becomes a lawful
			permanent
			resident based on that
			affidavit: 
 
			A.
			 Becomes
			a U.S. citizen; 
 
			B.
			 Has
			worked, or can receive
			credit for, 40
			quarters of coverage under the Social Security Act; 
 
			C.
			 No
			longer has lawful permanent resident status and has departed the
			United States; 
 
			D.
			 Is
			subject
			to removal, but applies for and obtains, in removal proceedings, a
			new grant of adjustment of status, based on a new affidavit of
			support, if one is required; or 
 
			E.
			 Dies. 
 
			Note
			that divorce does
			not terminate
			your obligations under
			Form I-864. 
			
 
			Your
			obligations under a Form I-864
			that you signed also
			end if you die.  Therefore, if you die, your estate is
			not required
			to take responsibility for the person’s support after your
			death.  However,
			your
			estate may owe
			any
			support that you accumulated
			before you died.
