K3 Visa, Affidavit of Support ~ Confusion ~

[Rings 10]

On my husbands checklist in packet 3, it askes only for the I-134 Affidavit of Support for the K3 Visa interview. I also e-mailed the consulate and asked them and they said that he should bring that to the interview with him.

Now I am looking at the requirements to change his status so that we can hopefully get that in before the rate increase. The change of status calls for the I-864 Affidavit of Support as well. Should I just send them both since I have a duplicate copy of the I-134? Why do they need both? Does the Australian Embassy keep the I-134 without forwarding it?

Am I over thinking this?

I-134 for the interview!

I-864 for the AOS!

Thank you so much!

because they are 2 completely separate processes, there are 2 different affidavits.

Thank you. I have another odd question. On the I-864 it says that your assets have to equal 3 times the difference between the poverty guidelines and your houshold income. My household income already exceeds the 125% of poverty guidelines, but my assets do not equal 3 times the difference. Is this only relevant in cases where they are using assets in order to meet poverty guidelines? Or do I need to meet poverty guidlines and have 3 times of the difference as well?

If you need assets to meet the guidelines, the formula is 1 dollar of income can be replaced with 3 dollars in liquid assets. If you qualify with income alone, you may simply leave all the asset related portions of the form blank.
