Alright...I am at 4 months today and #150 on Igor's list. 2 weeks ago I was in the the 300's. I think the warm weather is helping Vermont! Maybe people aren't calling in sick or snowed in. This is definitely a test of perseverance with God. Not that I would EVER get up, but there are some days it's really hurts! Huh!!? Well...praying for lots of NOA2's today. I am so thankful for this site!

I need a co-sponsor too. My sister is going to do this for us. What you need is for them to fill out an I-134 also. follow the instructions to the form. My sister got a letter from her bank, her employer and has requested her tax transcripts too from the IRS. Getting tax transcripts from the IRS is free and easy. You call the automated tax transcript line at 1-800-908-9946 and they mail it to you in 5-10 days. Just read the Instructions PDF on that link I sent you and you'll be ok!

And since your beneficiary takes all this to the interview I am sure there is still time

Thank you. How match $$ co sponsor have to make?

The sponsor or co-sponsor must make 125% above the poverty guidline. For 2011 a 2 person household is $14,710.00 so the sponsor needs to make

$1838.75. Hope that helps

Uscis Link for Poverty Guidlines.

Hope it helps!!

Correction to my last post, I meant to type $18,387.50 oops hehehe But either way Diana and Chris' link is perfect

Cool. You should be more than fine because let me explain this little detail that some people dont realize.

When you go for the interview you have to bring the I-134 affidavit of support, which only requires that the sponsor make %100 of the poverty line. it isnt until you go for Adjustment of Status after the wedding that you have to supply affidavit of support I-864. it is this form that requires the sponsor to make #125 of poverty line.

You will be fine. Some people talk about bringing in pay stubs as support. Pay stubs ARE NOT a requirement at the interview, however, I feel that they are good support for anyone that is unable to get their employment letter on letterhead

Oh I was aware of that, but since K-1 requires AOS after the wedding, they will most likely already judge us by the 125% standard, so I'll better be safe than sorry.

Hm, my fiance doesn't get pay stubs either, so I am hoping the stamp on the letter and tax returns will be enough proof of employment.

I see VSC has slowed this week...

Maybe no coincidence that they opened up to accept Haiti TPS apps again this week. Lets hope to God VSC doesnt drop to approving 1 a week again when we're all so close.

Who gets the letter from NVC? Petitioner or beneficiary? We already have our case number, called yesterday. But fiance forgot to ask when they received it from USCIS and if they already sent our file to our consulate. Wouldve helped to know so we can track it.

Ohh noooooooooooo!!!! I didn't hear about that! Listen, I'm all for helping people in need, but what about helping our OWN first! I pay a fortune in taxes every year so everyone else can be helped. So sick of it.

Edited to add:

Why don't they send those apps to CSC or TSC who obviously have much less to approve?

Its on the front of the USCIS.GOV website.

Yeah and not only do the USC pay taxes, theyve also paid $300 to have this petition looked at!

Exactly! I pray to God that this doesn't have an affect on the approvals. I just want to start my life with my fiance. Is that really so much to ask for?
