Question about I-134

[hinata 0]

Hello,

I included on the I-134 the value of the real estate that I own. Do I need to send the proof of it to my fiancee?

Thank you all for your help.

I would think you would need to include something official stating that you own the real estate and the value of it.

Just FYI, if you meet the poverty guidelines on income alone you do not need to include any of the extra stuff

Any and all numbers you write in the I-134 need evidence to back them up.

IF your income exceeds 125% of the povertyline you DO NOT need to provide asset data like property values.

One thing about I-134, the directions included with I-134 are very old, USCIS has no reason to update them since USCIS has no application for that form.

The consulates tend to treat the I-134 like a mini-I-864 as so prefer the same financial evidence as the I-864.

In our case this what the I-134 included.

• I-134 signed and notarized.

• SIMPLE Tax transcripts from the IRS for past 3 years, (Redundant for the (1040,W2,1099) but are free from the IRS http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq1-6.html

• Photo copy of IRS form 1040, and W2s for past 3 years (Not necessary if you provide the transcripts)

• Letter from my employer stating annual salary, job responsibility, and that is full time, on company letterhead.

• Photo copies of past month or so of pay stubs up to a few weeks before the interview.

My income was well above the povertyline so I did not include any asset data (LIKE BANK STATEMENTS or property values).

If your income exceeds 125% or (100% for military) of the povertyline when counting yourself, prospective immigrant and any dependents, then don't bother with assets (401K, Bank balance, Stocks etc..), it is just extra un-needed data to provide, the consular officer is most concerned with INCOME.

Echo . . . I didnt include anything except for pay information, employment letter and 3 years tax return printouts I got for free from the IRS - simple and easy.

If you need to back up the value of the real estate you can include a copy of your property tax from the last time (I receive mine in Feb each year). But as others have said - it's not necessary if your income exceeds the 125% over poverty line for your 'new' household size. Good Luck

Thank you all for your replies. That helps me a lot.

I don't know exactly what I will do.

I'm thinking about sending to my fiancee the proof of the real estate or re-sending a new I-134 with only income and no assets.

Hope this long process will end soon...

Thank you again for your help and good luck to you all!

apparently, the edition date is : 2/28/07, but versions 12/04/06, 7/14/06 and 6/17/06 are also acceptable.

Good luck!

Can I make copies of the tax transcripts?

Can I make copies of the tax transcripts?

Yes. I have always used unsigned copies of my tax forms (because I file electronically) and no one has ever questioned them at any point in the process. Copies are perfectly ok. Good Luck
