when you supply supporting documents for i-134

[mari joe 1]

Is my account number safe? Of course I trust my SO but I am wondering if I should black out the account number of my bank statments when i send with my SO to the consolate. Would the consolate need that? And if i get a bank official to write a declaration about my acct, would that also have to reference my account number? It just, it says in the guides when you supply supporting documents for i-134 to supply duplicates, but i don't know why unless they keep a copy.

Hello marijoe, I wouldn't send them anything with your actual acct numbers on them. The letter that the bank official writes does not have to have yor specific acct number on it and anything that you do send that does, yes you can black it out. I did and my SO had no problem at all. Hope this helps. Good Luck

There is no reason to send your account information, unless you can not show sufficient income by other means. If your ITR for 2008 gross income exceeds 125% of the poverty guidelines for the family size including yourself, your fiance(e) and dependents, there would be no reason to supply your banking information.

I think it will not matter if you cross off the account number itself. Bank letters can be useful not only to show assets but as a check and balance for a self employed person to support claims of income along with the ITR.

Your account number and bank routing number is on every check you write. If having it be "out there" was a security risk, we'd all have major problems. No worries.
