Filling out Affidavit while Unemployed

[dualhammers 1]

So my fiance's interview is a few weeks away and I have had no luck in finding a steady job. I have freelance income, but I've only had it for a few months (no tax return from last year to prove it) and it is just enough to cover the bills so I have less than $1,000 in my bank account. My father is co-sponsor so we should be OK for passing the interview, but I am confused how to fill out my own I-134.

What do I put on it if I have no money?

It says I have to provide proof - how do I do that if I have no job or money?

There is no place on the I-134 I can see to indicate I am the petitioner and my father is the co sponsor. How do we indicate which form is which?

I don’t know what stage you are at, what are you filing for anyways? Im going to assume it’s a K1, and if it’s the 129 you are sending in we didn’t send support docs in, and from what I understand you still don’t need them at that stage when it came to Montreal and AOS we sent I-864 the new version and the first check box is if you are the sponsor or the cosponsor as long as it’s the same household anyone in that household can be a co-sponsor. If you give more info we can help you more!

We are at the interview stage of a K-1 visa.

Be honest, fill it out with what income you have received so far this year, and proof of that income. Explain to the PO your situation. I would think with a co-sponsor you'll have too big of an issue.

I've seen people on here in the same boat as I am, unemployed and poor college students (living on child support, student loans and money hubby sends every month) and they've been approved.

From what I understand you both fill out the form. No need to indicate "petitioner" or "co-sponsor".

and you’re going to Montreal? fill out I-864 for the sponsor and whatever co-sponsors you need to meet something like 125% over the poverty line for every person, depending on where you live it’s like 12,000 you can look it up online so the co sponser/s will have to make enough to cover you your spouse and them over the line. If you need help looking the poverty line let me know the state and ill have a look

I've been told everywhere to fill out the I-134. That the I-864 is for the AOS.

[sheeshkabelle 153]

I-134 is for K-1 (Fiance Visa)sponsorship

I-864 is for CR-1/IR-1 (spousal) sponsorship

they sent you packet 3 yet? it will be on the checklist what ever one they want, they asked me for and i sent them I-864. They will need a cosponsor if the sponsor makes no money or it wont be approved you have to show you meet 125% the poverty line for each person. if it asks for I-134 i would take both... better safe then sorry
