Affidavit of Support and Medical Insurance

[Keith & Xiang 0]

With the Affidavit of Support do you also have to show that you have medical coverage for yourself and your soon-to-be husband or wife? I make well over the 125% poverty level but I'm curious if they want to see medical coverage?

Also, I'm paying child support on my son, I have just one more year to pay. Will they look at this during the K1 Fiancee Visa interview? The amount of my child support is stipulated in the divorce decree, thus far I have been approved through the USCIS and through the NVC, still waiting on Packet #3 from Guangzhou, China.

Thanks.

Keith, I filled out the I-134 for my (then) fiance's K1 Visa application and more recently the I-864 for his Adjustment of Status. Neither asks for any information on medical coverage, and I've never heard of that question being asked during a K1 interview either.

Also, I'm paying child support on my son, I have just one more year to pay. Will they look at this during the K1 Fiancee Visa interview?

Anything is possible, but after hanging around this website for a year, I have yet to see anyone report this subject coming up during a K1 interview, where they are typically more interested in establishing that you have a valid relationship. They are more likely to ask your fiancee if she knows how many children you have, their ages and names, etc. Seems like the child support you are paying would be of interest only in so far as it affects your ability to support your fiancee financially, so if your income exceeds the poverty level for a household of three (you, your fiancee, your son) you should be fine.

That's all I know, perhaps someone with experience in the child support area or who has been through the same embassy can shed more light on this.
