I-134 Signing the Form

[beantown79 0]

Hey have a question. His mother is co signing for us (he didn't make enought last year but this year does) but to be on the safe side we are using her. I was looking thru the guides and it says don't sign the I-134 form??? doesn't make sense. They have both filled out individual I-134 forms and atatched the documents, wouldn't they each sign there own I-134?

Thanks

I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is signed, with all required supporting evidence.

This is from the K-1 guide. "Ensure it is signed"!!!!!!

Yes, each sponser signs the I-134 for which they are completing.

I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is signed, with all required supporting evidence. Begin collecting the required information ahead of time, as it can often take several weeks to collect it all.

Where did you read this, btw ?

When you go into Guides, and click on K1 Visa, then click on the FAQ link for I-134 it is the first paragraph, kinda confusing i think, but you know it could be me with everything that is going on here!!!

ah - you mean here - http://www.visajourney.com/content/support

If you need more than one affidavit, fill out the entire form but leave the signature blank, then sign each copy and the original. It states in the directions that you can do this.

This is to 'capture' an 'original signature' on a copy. A Copy of a Signature won't wash, is not accepted on Interview Day - so instead, IMO, this FAQ entry helps with the 'original signature' requirement.

YUP - I can understand how it can be confusing.

I got dinged with an RFE once on the I-834 during the CR-1 process for that -- I'd signed the original, made photocopies and then accidentally mailed a photocopy instead of the original. Maybe if I'd read the instructions...

Does the Sponsor answer Question 10 on the form "I have submitted a visa petition to USCIS on behalf of"

Just a little confused as I know my fiance would fill this out as he did, but his mother didn't?

thanks
