Affidavit of Support

[jordin 0]

Hi to everyone in this journey:

I am a Cuban Filer. When I submitted my I-129 F to the Vermoth Visa Center I included the Affidavit of Support. Now that we are wating for the visa interview at the US interest section in the Havana I am wondering if the copy of the Affidavit of Support I mailed to my fiancee will be accepted at the visa interview. Or should I complete a new Affidavit of Support, get in notarized and mail it to my fiancee. If any Cuban filer now about this issue, please I need the advice.

Thanks!

A newer one will be needed for the interview the information included with it needs to be from closer to the interview date.

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.

USCIS did not require it for the petition and probably discarded it.

just to be on the safe side i think you should get at least updated printouts of your bank statements and a current paycheck.

why not do a new signed version of the form too...with a current date and signature.

i did not submit affidavit of support with my first application and it was approved. i finally prepared the Affidavit for the US Special Interests Section interview we have coming up.

I just wonder if your affidavit will actually be sent to the US Interests Section for the interview. I do not think it was necessary to submit it for the I-129F petition. I would check with the US Interests Section to prevent misunderstandings.

Also, I was told that the affidavits were good for up to six months since they were notarized. I had sent mine three months before the actual interview date.
