yes the I-134 is the affidavit of support, there is a link on this website under "example forms" you also need a verification of employment letter from your employer, a letter from your bank, or 12 months worth of bank statements and a copy of your tax return

search for income requirements in the search bar. It's 125% but I THINK for military personnel it's 100% but not too sure. If you search for the requirements you'll find it.

Good luck.

I have heard it mentioned around the forum that the 125% is for the I-864 ONLY. 100% for the I-134.

but truthfully I have no idea which is right, we are going to calculate how much my Fiance makes, and get a co-sponser anyway, it cant hurt.

I am researching this stuff myself and came across this info, this is from the dept of state website, and should answer your question:

Should K-1 fiancé(e) visa applicants use the I-864 or the I-134?

Since fiancé(e)s are nonimmigrant visa applicants, they should use the I-134. They will need to submit an I-864 to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) when they adjust status to conditional immigrant in the United States after they are married.

Do the same income requirements apply to all immigrant visa applicants even if they use the I-134?

No. The 125 percent minimum income requirement, the most recent year's tax return and other requirements only apply when an I-864 is needed. Applicants using the I-134 will need to show that their sponsor's income is 100 percent of federal poverty guidelines as required under Section 212(a)(4) of the INA.

so wait, I made the 100% minimum but when if i submit the I-864 to adjust status, i wont be able to meet the minimum requirement. Im confused!!! Does that mean they wont approve it by then when we get married! oh no!!
