 Part
			8.  Sponsor's Contract, Statement, Contact Information,
			Declaration, Certification, and Signature 
 NOTE:
			Read the
			Penalties section
			of the Form I-864 Instructions before completing this part. 
 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
			(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 
 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. 
 [Page
			7] 
 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. 
 
 
 
 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 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:
			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.

 Part 9. 
			Sponsor's Contract, Statement, Contact Information,
			Certification, and Signature 
 NOTE: Read the Penalties
			section of the Form I-864 Instructions before completing this
			part. 
 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 (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 individual (called the intending
			immigrant) who is applying for an immigrant visa or for adjustment
			of status to that of 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. 
 [deleted] 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 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 you must do
			all of the following until your
			obligations under this Form I-864
			terminate: 
 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 your 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
			intending immigrant is your husband,
			wife, or unmarried child under 21 years of age); and 
 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 individual,
			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 individual. 
 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 public
			benefits under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. 
 What If I Do Not Fulfill My
			Obligations? If you do not provide sufficient
			support to the individual who
			becomes a lawful permanent resident based on a Form I-864
			that you signed, that individual 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 this
			Form I-864 that you signed, you are
			responsible for reimbursing the agency 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 fail to reimburse the benefit
			granting agency upon request, you may be found ineligible to be a
			sponsor in the future. 
 If you are sued, and the court
			enters a judgment against you, the individual
			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 this
			Form I-864 will end if the
			individual you are sponsoring who
			becomes a lawful permanent resident based on the
			application for which this affidavit was required: 
 A.  Becomes a U.S. citizen; B.  Has worked, or can
			receive credit for, 40 quarters of coverage under the Social
			Security Act; C.
			 Has
			abandoned or lost 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. 
 [deleted] 
 
 Your
			obligations
			under this
			Form
			I-864 also end
			if you die.  Therefore, if you die, your estate is not required to
			take responsibility for the individual's
			support after
			your death.  However, your estate may be
			required to reimburse a benefit granting agency for any
			means-tested
			public benefits that
			the
			intending immigrant received before
			you died.
