i-134 questions

[jojake 0]

Hello all. I am in the process of petitioning to bring my fiancée from Colombia to the United States, and I have numerous questions about the I-134. Please bear with me.

1. the forms repeatedly say to fill out a form for each person. She has an eleven year old son. Am I supposed to send a second I-134 for him even though he is listed in question #3?

2. in question #10, do I list his name as well as my fiancee’s?

3. it says I need duplicate copies of the employer letter and bank letter. Do they have to provide me 2 copies, or can they give me one copy, and I can make copies.

4. since I just sent my I-129f in about a month ago, we are nowhere near the point where they will be sending her the packet which contains the I-134. I will be going to Colombia in a little over a week and , since I can download the I-134 and fill it out, I would like to give it and all the related materials to her at that time.

will it be a problem if all the dates on the materials are before the date she receives her packet?

thanks

jojake,

1. If the consular officer asks for one, yes. If they don't, no. (In my case the answer was 'no', but that was not in Columbia.)

2. Well, did you submit a petition for the boy?

3. The instruction about duplicate copies is puzzling - I've never seen anyone have to provide the information in duplicate, one is enough. If you do need to submit two I-134s and documentation for each I personally would play safe and have original documentation for each, although it may turn out to be unnecessary.

4. I waited until my wife had received her visa application packet and then sent her my financial information materials so as to be sure that it would be reasonably current.

Your best bet on items 1 and 2 would be to get the experiences of people who have been through the US consulate in Columbia recently.

My consulate requires one, with mine and my kids names listed.
