Hi all,

I'm back again with more questions. I've been looking into the issue of financial support and I'm not sure if I'm getting a clear handle on this. What I gather is that the US fiance has to be at least somewhere between 100% - 125% above the poverty guideline to meet financial support eligibility. Is that all? If so, I have no problem whatsoever. How do my financial support obligations from my divorce play into this scenario? Is there a formula somewhere that I may need to look at? I have a professional license and have been in practice a good 17 years now, so I'm beginning to think that my worry about this issue is much ado about nothing. I'm such a noob. :blush:

it's 125% above for your household size. Do you kids live with you? Then you must include that.

But yes, 125% over poverty level is not a lot.

My son is with my ex. It's really no problem even if he was with me. I just found a link to the guidelines and I have plenty of room to spare.

It doesn't matter if they live with him or not. They are added to his household size if he supports them.

For I-134, you have to be 100% above the poverty guideline; however, you may want to check that with the consulate/embassy your fiance'll have the interview - some will require 125%.

You may want to check the FAQs for I-864: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_1328.html

Some of the instructions apply to I-134.

I only offer advice - not even legal. Just the plain and simple kind.
