请问8老师几个i864的问题：

我找了老公的爸爸做我婚姻绿卡的sponsor。我公公过去三年都是和婆婆一起file joint tax return. 婆婆从去年起不再工作. 但我小姑有稳定工作且和父母一起住。我是否可以不找婆婆作co-sponsor而找我小姑子作co-sponsor？
-Yes.

还是说婆婆不管怎样一定要填i864a?
-No.

如果我不想让我婆婆作co-sponsor, 那么i-864的part 6, line 13关于annual income, 是否就仅仅填写公公的收入？
-Right. His income can be found in his W-2 (Box 1).

但是，作为收入证据的tax return transcript反映的是公婆二人joint tax return的情况，即两人的收入，这个数字就大于公公一人的收入。这种情况怎么办？我有几个想法：1）不管它，IO看到我公公的w2应该能明白。
-Only put  公公的 income. Provide the copy of 公公的W-2 and joint tax return.

2）一并上交我婆婆的w2。 3）在cover letter里解释一下数字的不一致，说明tax transcript里是他们两人的收入而i864里只有我公公一人的收入。请问哪种方法正确？

还有就是我公公和小姑在i864里part 6, line 6填的current annual income与其提供的pay stub有那么点不一致，他们的数字比pay stub里算出来的要多一点（about 2k), and the dicrepancy is not accounted for in their supporting documents. 但两人加起来的household income是完全超过贫困线标准的。请问这种表格大致正确但和supporting document有稍微差别，是否很严重？IO是否会审查的那么仔细啊？还是我直接在表格里用根据他们pay stub算出来的数字？
-If 小姑 did not file tax return together with her parents, then she needs to file a new I-864 as another co-sponsor. By the way, if 小姑 income is enough, your 公公 may not need to be co-sponsor (one sponsor is enough). The sponsor (your spouse) and each co-sponsor need to file their separate I-864.

 十分感谢您的解答！
