I-864 Affadavit-related question

[Kristin.l.m 0]

We're doing the last 2 pieces of our AOS application...as the petitioner, my piece is naturally the I-864 or I-864EZ (haven't figured out yet which one I should do).

I've been confused by the instructions, however... it keeps mentioning the form <a href="http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/i-130.htm> I-130</a>, which is the Petition for Alien Relative.

I brought my husband over on a fiance visa (K-1). The <a href="http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/i-129f.htm">I-129F</a> is the initial petition completed for K-1 applications.The I-130 is completed for a K-3, as I understand it. Should I just substitute I-129F in my mind every time I read I-130 in the instructions?

I presume these are equivalent forms but the USCIS was just too lazy to make dashed versions or a key to equivalent abbreviations. I'd hope that Iw ouldn't have to turn aorund and file an I-130 on top of everything else we've had to do...

Yup.... the I-864 is for someone who sponsored a beneficiary using an I-130 or an I-129 when that beneficiary seeks to adjust status. You're all set.
