Hello one and all.

I am new to this site, but I have to say from what I have read I am very thankful I have found and and would like to say thank you very much to everybody for the input they provide and help supplied for everybody on here.

Just a quick question I have myself. Now my Fiancée and I have had the cheque cashed at the start of the process and have had our first notification through so are waiting for the next step. But I am unaware if there has to be a certain financial situation required with moving on a K1 visa?

I ask this as my Fiancée is at university and therefore does not have a full time income, unlike myself...but I am the one making the move from London over to the US of A.

I have read various topics and threads on this wonderful forum, however I have still been left a little bit confused, but I do understand it is related to the I134 form? Not that I have got to that stage.

Kind regards,

Barry

The requirement is to guarantee you will not become a public charge (welfare) once you arrive in the United States. The standard to meet is above or beyond 125% the poverty level. To meet this requirement you can have a sponsor, using an Affidavit of Support with Form I134or Form I864. You'll be notified of which route to take. You might meet the requirement under your salary, guaranteed work, etc. but that proof comes with the forms. Hope the links provide more answers or someone else adds, good luck with your case! :thumbs:

so, she is the petitioner and you are the beneficiary? If so, she can get someone else to co-sponsor you. This other person will have to make enough money to qualify as a co-sponsor. I don't know the exact procedure, but one of my friends was petitioning her husband, She was also at the university and only had a part time job. Her husband had a full time job, but it didn't count. So, her lawyer adviced her to find a co-sponsor and she got her mom to sign the form for her. It worked out and he got his green card. Good luck.

That is exactly what we are going to do, thank you...and everyone for your help.

The embassy said how both my fiancee and the co-sponser need to fill out the I-134 form separately too, so I just wanted to add that for anybody else in the same situation.
