The first J-2 dependent has tohave at least $500 per month in support, and each additional dependent needs tohave at least $300 per month. The J-2 dependent has tohave financial support for the length of the J-1’s program.
A family of four, for example, would need to show proof of $1,200 per month in support for the J-1 scholar, $500 per month for the spouse, and $300 per month for each child. The total is $2,300 per month, and it must be available for the entire program.
