I have been looking around and i can't find any information, this is the case,

My uncle file a petition like 10 years ago to bring my parents and my aunt to the usa, he is citizen, we received all the papers to start the process. I have some questions to ask and i need help, please!

1. my uncle, the petitioner, have to fill out the I864 or a another sponsor( another uncle) can fill out the form only?

2. If my uncle the petitioner has to fill out the form, can he fill it out by himself, (he does his taxes with his wife) or he has to fill out the form with her and she will fill the i864a?

3. Right now his income is not very good because he lost his job last year, he just got a new job, the joint sponsor ( my other uncle) can support them with and affidavit? could the documents be send to immigration separately or everything needs to be in one package ?

4. another question is...i just paid the 88 dollars for my parents, i became a US citizen a couple months ago... can transfer my parents case to my name or I need to start all over again?

thank you in advance for all the answers i can get in this forum
 
Immigrating as FB-4 sibling allows the brother or sister to bring their spouse and any unmarried children under 21 years old (and any of their children's children {out of wedlock or kids whose other parent died or is divorced from the immigrating parent}).

Your Uncle as the I-130 filer must submit an I-864 for each immigrant he is sponsoring. Uncle's spouse's income may be included in the single form. Another person may be a joint sponsor and also file an I-864. Another household member whose income will be included files an I-864A as a co-sponsor. If Uncle dies before they immigrate, another qualifying family member may become a substitute sponsor.

As the parents of a USC, they do not have to continue with the FB-4 petition. A USC adult son or daughter can file an Immediate Relative I-130 for EACH parent with current fees for both. In such a case, the adult kid becomes the sponsor and MUST file an I-864 for EACH parent. In this scenario, an immigrant visa is "immediately available" and there is no waiting for a priority date, but there is still a processing queue like anyone else. WARNING: If there are any under 21 year old and unmarried children of these immigrants, they CANNOT come along with them. They would merely be siblings of a USC with a 10 year wait time.

No matter who the I-130 sponsor is, if the I-864 is processed through NVC, they charge a fee for it. Every immigrant who had an individual I-130 filed on their behalf requires an original I-864, with any applicable fee, and copies of financial evidence. For certain, household members of the Intending Immigrant, photocopies of the main I-864 will suffice and multiple copies of the financial evidence are not required.

Switching parents from FB-4 to IR at a late stage is a big expense.
