Short answer

To sponsor your parents for a green card in the U.S., you must demonstrate an income of at least 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines for your household size. For 2023, this is approximately $22,887 for a household of two. You will need to submit Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, along with proof of income and tax returns. Processing times vary, so check the USCIS website for updates. Verify current rules on official government or embassy sites as requirements change.
