Q.

I-864

Hello -
I am now 485 pending (marriage based). For I-864 We used our savings account as supplement b/c my husband is in school and his part time income is not enough (Also we CANNOT obtain a joint sponsor). CIS sent us a RFE asking for bank stmts for last 12 months. The thing is, my family wired me a lump sum of money directly to my account ($30,000 as a wedding gift) after our wedding in August. Although this deposit has been sitting in my savings account for almost 4 months now and my mom's name was indicated on the bank stmt as well (along with the money wire transaction), I am worried this would look bad and CIS would still deny my I 485. I would like to hear your opinion regarding the adequacy of my response to this RFE.
Thanks.
