evidence of support sample?

[Spiky 0]

I've read on several different sites what is required. Some state a form (I-184 I think it was?) others just say "do up a letter". Does anyone have a sample of what exactly is needed, or out of personal experience what was done for that requirement? I know my fiance wants to get a notice from his employer, just to be on the safe side for proof, but is wanting some type of sample... It's a little open-ended with the choices for it, so it seems. Thanks!

The Guides on here (see the blue bar at the top of the screen) have good examples of what is needed and exmple forms so you know how to fill them out.

If you are going for a K1 (fiance visa), you need the form I-134 for financial support; for a spousal visa, you send the I-864. With that, you send your tax docs for the last three years (officially you only need one year but most embassies want to see three). A letter from the employer stating your US fiance is in permanent employment and what his salary is is a good idea too.

The USC has to accomplish Form I-134 for K1 affidavit of support and attach supporting documents (bank statements, letter of employment, pay stubs, etc.). The I-864 is for the AOS.

Hi

I also have a few queries on this subject so didn't want to post an identical post, apologies if I am highjacking this one, but it is the same topic.

Thanks penguin ie and calypso - hoping you guys would be able to clarify my questions:-

We are also in the process of putting everything together with the I-134. We have letter from employer, pay stubs, 3 years of tax returns - my query is, are bank statements absolutely necessary? I've read somewhere else on VJ that a letter from the bank stating how long account has been open and how much is deposited each month can be submitted as an alternative to bank statements. Is this true?

My fiance would prefer not to give his bank statements (he's not trying to hide anything, he doesn't understand what purpose they serve as confirmation of his salary etc is proved in other documents).

Also, as the beneficiary of the K1, my assets are not taken into account, but I want them to be! Can I submit evidence of how much capital I am bringing to the States for the purpose of buying our marital home (due to the sale of my home in the UK)?

Huge thanks for your time.

If your US fiance's income is comfortably above the poverty line for household size, there is no need to submit anything from the bank or any proof of assets. Your assets won't be counted now, but they can be counted once you are married, for the adjustment of status.

His income is above the level. I'll tell him the good news (he will be smug he's proved his little (pointless!) point! Thanks so much Penguin ie. You're like Batman on here, seen you swoop down many times to the aid of posters. Much appreciated x
