I-29F Form assistance please? (Helping my US finacee)

[BrockUK 26]

You mean the I-134. The I-130 is a completely different document.

That won't be needed until the interview stage, so no need to fill it out for a few months.

LOL! Yeah that was what I meant! Awesome! Thanks for the advice!

Brock! I was thinking about you the other day! I was filling out the form for the Social Security and, somewhere, it said that the form could be printed on A4 paper..... so I took this as a reassurance of what we talked about the other day. The guy who posted that information, was probably blaming another mishap on the paper size

LOL OMG NO WAY!!!!

Well that has certainly reassured me thank you so much for letting me know! That is one less thing left on my mind lol!!

I just hope that other people with the same fear happen to find this and don't panic

Hey guys!

It's been a while so I thought I might update you. Plus I have a few more questions that I need assistance with

Well as you can tell by my timeline, we have still yet to receive the NOA1, despite the petition being sent by FedEx on 29th May! Seeing how other people get their's in like 10 days after sending it, and that we only got a text confirmation and not an email one, last night I asked my fiancee to call the USCIS and ask them for an update.

So she did while we were on webcam (our usualy daily date!). I could only hear what my fiancee had to say while I was IMing her questions to ask! Apparntly they did get the petition fine, cashed the money order successfully and she said that we have more than enough evidence so we wont be getting an RFE (even though I thought the Texas centre does not deal with that, the California or Vermont Centre decides that...?). Apparntly she said that last week alone she had to send RFEs to 20 petitions!

Sorry Im waffling on here! Anyways she said that the email address was written on their database incorrectly, and will ammend it as soon as she can (their fault not ours). The petition will be sent to the Vermont centre today and according to her now is the best time because petitions are going through between 2-3 months (persoanally I think thats BS, so don't worry im not getting that excited!). She said that the reason we have yet to receive our NOA1 was because of the Memorial Day holiday; apparntly it really screws up the USPS service (bet it ain't as bad as our Royal Mail! )but we should be getting it soon so we can use the reference number to track our petition (FINALLY!)

But here is the thing that really confused me (and her, but tats because she was completely clueless in what I was asking her to ask the operator, bless her! ). My fiancee finally got approved of her disability allowance and has started to get it plus backpay from 5 years (alot of money to say the least) and actually placed the letter of the ammount confirmed in the I-129F petition. (which I didnt know about until yesterday!). Because of this, she is way above the poverty line, so I am thinking we don't need a co-sponsor now, but would it help our case if we did anyway. So I asked my fiancee to ask the operator. The lady said that we DO NOT NEED to fill in an I-34 form as she is earning more than enough to support me!

But surely they need some sort of confirmation and evidence about who will be financially supporting me (co-sponsor or not). Should I call them again and ask about it, tell my fiancee to fill in the form anyway (as well as the co-sponsor's so it looks better on us) or just go ahead and not fill in anything until I hear from the US Embassay in London?

Apart from that I cannot wait to fill in my timeline! Oh and by the way I did not get an RFCS (Request for Correct Stationary ), so for people wanting to know you can use A4 sheets to fill in the petition! WOO HOO!

Thank you guys in advance for helping me with my question! I really appreicate it!

you need I-134 to be filled in and presented on the interview day! If she gets money above the poverty line, you do not need a co sponsor.

And btw you won't know if you get RFE or not until someone gets into your petition in a few months time... so I wouldn't rely 100% on what this lady told your fiancee.

Yes thats exactly what I thought on both points! Honestly it does enrage me when people give out the wrong information. Now Im gonna have to break it to my fiancee about filling in more paperwork...

It's been on many occasions that people rang USCIS and got the misleading information... stick to the guidelines here and you will be fine

Yes I will thank you.

Do you think it will look better if we have a co-sponsor to fill in the I-34 so we have a backup plan or just get my fiancee to fill it in?

I don't know your fiancee's financial situation.. I am also not familiar with how it looks like when it comes to allowances so I won't be able to give you an answer based on facts. I am just assuming that if she is going to be getting from now on , payment above the poverty line , she should be fine on her own. Hopefully someone who is more familiar will be able to give you a proper answer

[BrockUK 26]

Ok thank you for the advice Sabi

It amazes me how little USCIS employees actually know about this process.

LOL! I know right?! I mean they are there to give people like us advise on how to do this process. I dunno where I would be without the VJ community. Maybe they should hire us!

I have a feeling they do this on purpose... to slow people down.. I just can't imagine how the staff can be so misinformed!

I think you just created a conspiracy theory right there!

I don't think so. I think they simply hire people to answer the phones, and they're given a script to follow, and that's about it.
