The next very critical step in the process is the financial support document. The child or grandchild who invites you must prove that their household meets the minimum necessary income for this application process. Your child or grandchild may use the following income scale to assess their ability to meet the income requirements.
| Size of Family Unit | Minimum necessary gross income |
|---|---|
| 1 person (your child or grandchild) | $24,949 |
| 2 persons | $31,061 |
| 3 persons | $38,185 |
| 4 persons | $46,362 |
| 5 persons | $52,583 |
| 6 persons | $59,304 |
| 7 persons | $66,027 |
| More than 7 persons, for each additional person, add | $6,723 |
