No it does not need to be notarized.

From the USCIS.gov website:

You must sign Form I-134 in your full name. (Note: Signing Form I-135 is under penalty of perjury under U.S. law). For this reason, it is not necessary to sign Form I-134 before a notary, nor to have your signature notarize after you sign it.

Notarization was DROPPED from the latest version of the form.

It is now not required, as noted above. I asked the HCM consulate a few months ago about this since the paperwork in packet 3 still references the need to have it notarized. They confirmed that it does not. However, I would recommend using the LATEST version of the form, which has no place to sign, just to be clear.

Correct! If you use the older version of the form that has the notary block, it WILL need to be notarized.

Edition Date :

10/30/2008. Prior versions are also acceptable.

"Prior versions" Need to be notarized. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/men...00045f3d6a1RCRD

I've heard that the checklist being sent from the consulate in Ho Chi Minh still states that the I-134 needs to be notarized. I've seen others post that they've contacted the consulate and were told that HCM accepts the new I-134, and that it does not need to be notarized. However, for your own peace of mind you should contact the consulate about this yourself.

I actually printed out the e-mail response that I got from the consulate stating that it was acceptable and sent it into the interview with Hien...just in case they said anything. But, there was no problem at all with the I-134 that I submitted (latest version with no notarized signature).

The only thing that the woman did not like about the package Hien handed to her was that I had copied her ENTIRE passport...every page (they said copy of her passport so I gave it to them). She did not want the cover or the blank pages inside, only the pages with her photo and personal information. The other pages were ripped off and given back to her to take home. Better too much than not enough, I think.

Unless consulate specific, NO. Check the requirements for your consulate.

Just trying to keep the paper mills in Maine busy with all that paper?
