I-134 or I 864 for K visas

For those who have gone through the K visa process which form do they want for the affadvit of support. Thanks:)

I-134 is the form you must use, though as far as evidence of support, it is best to follow the guidelines set out for the I-864.

Yep, I-134 for the initial K-1 / K-3 application (usually at the Consulate stage), I-864 only once you're in the country on your visa and ready to adjust status to lawful permanent resident.

Note that you don't actually need to file the I-134 with the initial petition; the Consulate will request it in Packet 3 once your petition(s) have been approved and forwarded through the NVC to the foreign Consulate. So basically, you just need it for the interview. Some Consulates want I-864 rather than I-134, but they'll tell you which one you need in Packet 3.

The K-3 Guide has a lot of useful information on this.

Thanks for your help, I was pretty sure it was the I-134 just wanted to confirm with others.
