Some I-134 questions

[Mimane 0]

So I've started to prepare documents for the next packet, included the I-134. I'm wondering about a few things, which I was hoping someone could help me with.

1) I'm using a cosponsor because I'm a part time college student, part time working. Under part 3, where we fill in the information about my fiance, it's asking for her relationship to the cosponsor. Obviously she hasn't got a relationship with him yet because she's never met him before. He's a friend of mine, and I'm included in his household but I have no idea what I should put in the box where it's asking for her relationship to him (we're both filling out the I-134's)

2) She's bringing a daughter with her who we listed on the original I-129f. Do we have to fill out a seperate I-134 for the child too, or is it enough how we include her under the same sector, part 3; Name of spouse and children accompanying or following to join person:

Thanks in advance

I wish I could answer your questions, but I don't really know enough about co-sponsers to be able to give you a for sure answer. I would assume it's okay to just include her daughter in a form seeing how it's already asking for the children who might follow her. Like I said, though, I'm far from an expert so perhaps someone else can help??

Good luck with the interview and the rest of your journey!

It's ok, I just have to try and figure out something if noone really knows what I ought to put here.

thanks anyway

Relationship to sponsor: Fiancee of sponsor's friend (or something to that effect) would be the most accurate.

2) She's bringing a daughter with her who we listed on the original I-129f. Do we have to fill out a seperate I-134 for the child too, or is it enough how we include her under the same sector, part 3; Name of spouse and children accompanying or following to join person:

This may be consulate-dependent. That said, there are plenty of VJ users whose fiances had children accompanying or following to join; I'm sure they'll weigh in and offer you some advice here.

Thanks for the reply, Stephen + Elisha, that really did help. I needed an answer to my first question more than the second. In worse case I will just make a seperate one for the child so she can bring it with her to the interview. The officers can then decide whether or not they want it I guess. Thanks.

Did you say that your friend the co-sponsor is including you (US Citizen) in his household count? If so, does this friend claim you as a dependent on his taxes? Living under the same roof does not mean that you would be included in his household count.

I also have a question concerning the I-134 and didn't want to have to create a new thread.

I don't send the I-134 and following evidence with the I-129F, correct? I send it to my fiancee after I receive the NOA2, right?

Correct, your fiancee should have the I-134 for the interview and is not required to follow the I-129f

That is correct, my friend is claiming me on his taxes due to me being a student and living in his home. So I should be included in his household cause of this.

Relationship is "Friend of petitioner"

Yes, you need a seperate I-134 for each applicant. I also attached a copy of all supporting documents to our son's applications. Some consulates do not require copies of all the supporting documents. Kiev said they did, then detached them and gave them back to me. She also needs a separate application (DS156) separate medical exam, basically everything you need for the fiancee visa except the DS 156K. She will not need a police certidficate if under age 16. She also needs a letter of permission from the father allowing her to relocate to the USA permanently. She needs a copy of the father's passport photo and signature page to go with this letter and the letter needs to be notarized.

You will have to file to adjust status for both after they arrive. Again, same documents and affidavit x 2. The fee x 2. Except that for a child under age 14 the fee is $600 if filed with the mother's AOS

NO. You are the US citizen and must fill out an I-134 in any case. You will always be the sponsor. He is the co-sponsor. You are counted on your own I-134. You will NOT be counted on his. If he included you in his income tax as a dependent then he needs to attach a letter explaining why and why you are not counted as a dependent on his I-134. The US citizen does not ever need a co-sponsor.

Gary, I think that if the friend claims him on taxes (nice scam on the IRS, but that isn't germane here) then he should be counted in the household size. So that would mean the friend's income must exceed 22,887 for 3 people. And if the friend also sponsors on the 864 the count would be 3 as well.

I don't agree Rog. He is a US citizen and would be counted twice? However the CHILD of his fiancee will count for both households. On the I-864, if they file an I-864 and I-864a as being in the same household, THEN the US citizen would count in the household size of the I-864.

You are correct that the consulate will WANT to count him in the co-sponsors household size as he is listed as a dependent (and yes it is an IRS scam but not germane here) but a letter would explain why he is not counted.

As I see it, they BOTH have a family size of 3 unless his co-sponsor has any other children or dependents.

I do understand your point. You are saying he is counted as a dependent NOT that he is being sponsored, per se.
