にゃんごろもちさんのお考えでお間違いないと思います。
最近の申請ではないかもしれませんが、昨年8月末にNVCでの申請を終え12月にIR-1visaの許可が下りた者です。
アメリカ人夫の収入がpoverty　lineより低く、夫の預金もAssetsで使用しました。
差は３倍以上５倍未満の金額でした。
先ほど、USCISのサイトで確認しましたが、

If You Can’t Meet the Minimum Income Requirements
If you cannot meet the minimum income requirements using your earned income, you have various options:

You may add the cash value of your assets. This includes money in savings accounts, stocks, bonds, and property. To determine the amount of assets required to qualify, subtract your household income from the minimum income requirement (125% of the poverty level for your family size). You must prove the cash value of your assets is worth five times this difference (the amount left over).
Exceptions:
If the person being sponsored is a spouse, or son/daughter (who is 18 years or older) of a U.S. citizen: The minimum cash value of assets must be three times the difference between the sponsor’s household income and 125% of the federal poverty guide line for the household.
If the person being sponsored is an orphan coming to the United States for adoption: The adoptive parents’ assets need to equal or exceed the difference between the household income and 125% of the federal poverty line for the household size.
You may count the income and assets of members of your household who are related to you by birth, marriage, or adoption. To use their income you must have listed them as dependents on your most recent federal tax return or they must have lived with you for the last 6 months. They must also complete a Form I-864A, Contract Between Sponsor and Household Member. If the relative you are sponsoring meets these criteria you may include the value of their income and assets, but the immigrant does not need to complete Form I-864A unless he or she has accompanying family members.
You may count the assets of the relatives you are sponsoring.

との事でスポンサーがアメリカ国籍の配偶者の場合は収入とpoverty lineの差が３倍以上でAssetsが認められる様です。

という項目の所です。

I-864のInstructionはアメリカ人配偶者とその他の家族の資産を合算してAssetsを使用する場合や親族、Appricantの資産を使用する場合は５倍以上の差が必要という意味ではないでしょうか？

当方、英語が苦手で翻訳機能で読んでいる為、見当違いでしたら申し訳ありません。
