[sunnybear 0]

Ok I am the USC and we are waiting for the good ole NOA2 to arrive. Anywayyyyy I know I need to do an affidavit or support and supply tax records/pay stubs and letter from employer.....is this all I will need to send? Also what all needs to be notarized so I make sure to get that done!?

I would like to get this stuff done and sent on to fiance' asap so that it is already there when he receives packet 3. (He will be the one to receive something next in the post besides me getting the NOA2 correct?) Is there anything else that comes to me that I will need to send onto him?

Thanks so much!

ONLY form I-134 needs to be notarized.

I included the following, which may be considered overkill, but it didn't take that much longer to assemble all the information:

* I-134 form, notarzied

* Printout of 401K holdings

* List of bonds w/ value and serial numbers

* Life insurance

* Title on my house

* Latest property assessment (showing value of house)

* Latest mortgage statement showing principle left

* Latest bank statements (3 months worth)

* Letter from bank detailing 1) date account opened, 2) total depositied in 2007, 3) present balance

* Letter from my company detailing 1) date I started working, 2) job title, 3) showing full-time, permanent status

* Last 3 paystubs

* W-2 for 2006 and 2007

* State and Federal tax forms for 2006 and 2007

I think that's it. My fiancee has not had her interview yet, but I'm confident this should be sufficient.

Asset data like BONDS, Life insurance, Home title, Bank statements and all NOT needed if income exceeds 125% povertyline, all the counselor officer is concerned with is if INCOME is sufficient to support the prospective immigrant. Your list is WAY OVERKILL, it gives the counselor officer many things to ask questions about, counselor officers in countries like Vietnam, and China LOVE to pick this apart and ask allot of complex questions, when it comes to Affidavit of support, KEEP IT SIMPLE provide only income data, and just enough asset data to make up for a short fall in income if you fall below 125% povertyline.

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.

you may want to read London's page on this.

To substantiate the information regarding income and resources the sponsor should attached two or more of the following items to the affidavit.

• notarized copies of his or her latest federal income tax return;

• a statement from his or her employer showing salary and the length and permanency of employment;

• a statement from an officer of a bank regarding his or her account, the date the account was opened and the present balance;

• any other evidence adequate to establish financial ability to carry out his or her undertaking toward the applicant for what might be an indefinite period of time.

http://london.usembassy.gov/cons_new/visa/iv/faffidavit.html

NOTE IRS returns no longer need to be notarized, and transcripts can be used in place of the returns. So acording to London you can provide I-134 and TWO of the items in the list, so how about IRS return data, and employer letter, and to add one more thing a few recent pay stubs can be considered as "Any Other Evidence"

One more question regarding this....this year was first year I was not married doing my taxes...but even on this years taxes I still had to file married but seperate since my divorce was not 100% done until first week of January....

Do I still submit taxes from past 3 years?! Or should I just do this years? I already have

*letter from employer

*copy of a few pay stubs

*bank info/statements

*copy of child support so they know I am getting that money too each month!

*and then of course the I-134 that I will get notarized
