Income Qualification/I-134 Question

[Dos 0]

Hello All,

Firstly, I apologize for the repetitive nature of my question but I just need clarification on a couple items regarding income requirements and filling out the I-134 Form. My fiancee (from the Philippines) and I (from the US) received our NOA2 a little over a week ago and are waiting on our MNL number now. I have all the required documents pretty much prepared to send to her but have a couple questions:

1) Will my annual income of $39,000 (before taxes) be sufficient to get my fiancee approved for her Visa? I only have about $2000 in the bank (about $1200 in savings. $800 in checking) and no additional assets (property, etc). I know about the income poverty guidelines but just want to be sure I make enough.

2) If my income is enough, should I still include my banking information on the I-134 Form?

Thanks in advance for your help/responses.

Yes, is the answer to your question. I am in a very similar situation but I have a family of 3 and less income. If you will only be supporting a family of 2 (yourself and your fiance) then your would need to make above $18,387 which is 125% of the poverty line. You will be fine with your income. Just be sure to follow all the directions and supply all necessary forms.

Submit in duplicate evidence of income and resources, as appropriate:

A. Statement from an officer of the bank or other financial institutions with deposits, identifying the following details regarding the account:

1. Date account opened; Supporting Evidence

2. Total amount deposited for the past year; and

3. Present balance.

B. Statement(s) of your employer on business stationery showing:

1. Date and nature of employment;

2. Salary paid; and

3. Whether the position is temporary or permanent.

C. If self-employed:

1. Copy of last income tax return filed; or

2. Report of commercial rating concern.

D. List containing serial numbers and denominations of bonds

and name of record owner(s).

Good luck!

If you make enough in income alone to cover the 125% requirement for your household size plus your fiancee, then no need to list assets or provide documentation for them. You can leave the whole assets section of the I-134 blank.
