You will be the primary sponsor, and your sister's boyfriend will be the joint sponsor. You should each start to prepare your I-134 packets when you receive your NOA2. You'll need several recent pay stubs, tax transcripts for the last 3 years, letters of employment, and W-2s. It will take a couple weeks to get all this together, then you'll send it all to your fiance so he/she has it well before the interview. That's when she'll hand it over.

They going to ask me that from him. Because if so. My interview is on wendsday and i don´t have none of that stuff. His my beneficiary. Because i don´t make more than 15g i think thats the reason.

I'm having trouble understanding. Tell me whether the following things are true:

You are the American petitioner, who has a foreign fiance.

Your fiance's interview is on Wednesday.

You never sent your fiance an I-134 packet.

Well if you had prepared a sponsorship packet, you would remember, yes? You have four or five days to get everything you can, for both your own packet and for your joint sponsor's packet. Contact your joint sponsor and see if he can find his tax returns and w-2s and anything else on the list and ship them overnight to you. You both need to print and fill out a I-134. Your joint sponsor also needs to include proof of identity--a copy of his passport bio page is fine. Get researching this right away and make sure everything that needs to be in that envelope, that you and he are able to gather, gets in there.

Your fiancee likely won't pass the interview without the sponsorship materials. I don't want you to freak out more than is necessary, but in my opinion it may be necessary to freak out a bit and turn into a one-pointed-focus, fast-moving sponsorship packet machine. Right now.

I think it may be a good idea to email your embassy and ask for a later interview date.

If you had filled out an I-134 and sent it to your fiance, and if you'd followed the consulate's instructions for the form, then you probably would have also sent a copy of your most recent tax return with it. If you didn't send her a copy of your tax return then you probably also didn't send the I-134. It's easy to forget having sent a form, but you'd probably remember digging out a copy of your tax return and sending it.

From your original post, it sounds like you thought this was something you were supposed to do AFTER the interview. That's partially correct. You do have to submit another affidavit of support when your fiance applies for her green card, but she will ALSO have to submit one at the interview. Without it, she will not be approved.

You and your co-sponsor need to get busy on these forms. You both need to provide copies of your most recent tax returns. Your co-sponsor will also need to provide proof of US citizenship or legal permanent residence. You can email or FAX this evidence to your fiance, but the I-134 forms you send MUST be originals, with original signatures - you can't email or FAX them.

Just curious, did you hire a lawyer or visa service to handle this for you? Is that why you don't know if the forms were sent?

No i did it most by my self and now has the days got closser i needed help. So im pretty much #### because im already here in the country with my fiance and the man who is going to help me is in the us. Someone is coming in from over there but on wendsday the day of the interview. So where is the form that he has to fill and what are the pappers. Im hopping they don´t ask me nothing about that and if they do tell them i was thinking that was later on. And maybe they will tell me to bring it in later. Because they never send me the final papers that they where suppoce to send me. And im going to the capital of DR to get them tomorrow.

Okay. So you won't get the papers before the interview. Go to the interview with your fiance. They will not approve her, but hopefully they will explain that you need the I-134 and that they will issue the visa after you return the sponsorship documentation. Do you understand? You will go to the interview, receive a slip of paper asking for additional requirements, and go gather those additional requirements. Then you will return the documents to the embassy. Then, hopefully, they will give your fiancee the visa. I'm not guaranteeing that they will allow you to do all this. I hope they will. I don't know if it's an option to change the interview date at this point. You might call and ask.

The form you and your joint sponsor need is the I-134. Go to the top of this page and look at the heading "example forms" to see how to fill it out with your own information. Go to the top of this page and read the K-1 guide under "guides" for links to the actual blank form. And once again, you need various forms of financial evidence for both yourself and your joint sponsor. I've mentioned them already.

Inform your joint sponsor of what he needs to gather as soon as possible. Have him send them overnight to you at your fiancee's address. You don't qualify to sponsor on your own, so you may be able to get away with not having your own evidence, but you still need to complete the I-134.

This is not a great situation, but you'll get through it if you have patience. Stay connected to this site for more good advice. If it were me, I'd still try to get my joint sponsor to gather his materials and overnight them to me on Monday, even knowing it might not happen. I'd want them gathered and on their way so I could tell the consulate officer I was ON IT and could return them ASAP.

These are my thoughts for now. Look alive. Don't get a defeated attitude, meaning try not to get too upset and sort of feel like giving up. Move, act, solve problems. This is what your visa process requires. You made a mistake, but it's only a mistake. It's possible you can get it all sorted within a week or so. And keep checking back! Stay on top of this!

Please report back if something I've said is confusing to you.
