Hi,

My wife is sponsoring immigration of her mother. My wife doesn't work and we have been filing tax as married jointly. I am filling I-864a as household member. In I-864; what should she put in point # 23.a (Have you filed a federal income tax return for each of the three most recent years); considering, that I have been filing tax return as married jointly. Also what to put in point # 24a., 24.b and 24c (Most recent income)? Should she put 0 there (since her individual income was 0) or should we put my income there?
 
She should put yes, she filed a tax return for the last 3 years, because if you guys filed jointly, it is as much her tax return as it is your tax return. For #24a-c, she needs to put exactly the number it says on the "total income" line of her tax return (i.e. you guys's joint tax return) for those years.
