If I am the primary sponsor but I don't have a job or income, how do I fill the I-864 form?

In a family-based immigration application the U.S. citizen sponsoring relative must provide an Affidavit of Support. If he/she does not have income, then that information must be accurately stated. You appear aware that when the sponsoring relative has insufficient documentable income it can become necessary to have joint sponsor, and if your father is a U.S. citizen or Permanent Resident, he has sufficient documentable income, and he is willing to assume the responsibilities associated with the Affidavit of Support, he can qualify as a joint sponsor. Of course, there are many other details that impact immigration eligibility. It would be wise for you and the foreign national you are sponsoring (your spouse?) to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information, could advise about eligibilities, options and strategies to attain your goals, and who then could offer legal representation in the often complex application process.

Would I need to file a form I-765 and if I have a job, do I still need a sponsor?

In connection with a marriage-based adjustment of status application in the Immediate Relative visa category generally an applicant should file a Form I-765 (and, if eligible, a Form I-131) despite having an EAD associated with an F1 and despite having applied for OPT. Regardless of your job, your U.S. citizen spouse will need to serve as a "sponsor" with the filing of an Affidavit of Support. Of course, there are many more details about the application and required supporting documents. It would be wise for you and your fiance to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information, could advise about eligibilities, options and strategies to attain your goals, and who then could offer legal representation in the often complex application process.

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. Since we do not have all the facts, it is impossible to give a completely accurate answers. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your father's situation. (S)he would then be in a better position to analyze his case and advise you of your options.
