The Department of Health and Human Services publishes the Poverty Guidelines every year. And every year USCIS takes way too long to publish their guidelines based on 125% of the Poverty Guidelines. It has now been almost two months since the Federal Register Posting and there is still no new form I-864P on the USCIS website. You might think USCIS would get some advance notice of the guidelines from DHHS and have the form ready ahead of time -- they don't. So I have posted them here ... make sure you doublecheck my math (I rounded up)! 2013 POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR THE 48 CONTIGUOUS STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA Persons in family/household Poverty guideline. (USCIS = 125%) 1 $11,490 $14,363 2 $15,510 $19,388 3 $19,530 $24,413 4 $23,550 $29,438 5 $27,570 $34,463 6 $31,590 $39,488 7 $35,610 $44,513 8 $39,630 $49,538 For families/households with more than 8 persons, add $4,020 for each additional person then multiply by 1.25 |
