Notarized attachment?

[Paul123 0]

Hi everyone.. quick question: Should any attachment to the I-134 be notarized along with the form itself?

Nothing needs to be notarized other than the I-134 form it self.

It all depends on what you wish do "do" or "prove" by having them notarized.

Notarization is the "act of witnessing" by the Notary public and requires the Notary Public to ensure the signer's identity. Notarization does not prove the truthfulness of statements or legalize or validate any document.

If your purpose is to legalize or validate your attachments then notarization will not do that. If you desire to prove to the authorities that it is your signature on the document then by having them notarized will accomplish this.

The I-134 is the document that the government requires to ensure your identity.

I also have some questions about the I-134 form: Just so I am clear, I have my most recent 2 yrs of

tax return (1040), the copy that I get (not signed)....should they be signed, notorized?

Another thing.....I get paid a base salary (which is about a third of my income) plus commission....when

my boss does the job letter....will he put my base salary or my total income.

I do direct deposit with my pay check so i dont get a hard check stub that shows YTD income but i can go on

my company's intranet and print them....are these acceptable by the embassy?

As YuAndDan stated that the only thing that is required to be notarized is the I-134. Simply signed by you would be OK.

He should put your total earned income that will be subject to tax (base plus commission)

A pay stub is a pay stub whether it is a printout from the net or otherwise... If you decide to use a stub as evidence make sure it has your name, etc.... on it so you can show it is really yours

jamrok,

You'll have to ask your boss what he's going to write in the letter. If he's savvy he'll give a dollar figure for your base salary and explain that you also receive a commision and how it is determined without providing a dollar figure.

Probably. Worked for me.

Thank you all for your responses!

The reason I asked, is that I thought it might be a good idea to make an attachment in response to question 7, in which I have to answer "unemployed" since my seasonal position ended this week. I have an employer letter stating my earnings for the year. It also mentions I am a seasonal employee in good standing and that they anticipate my return in April.

Along with that, I thought it might be a good idea to state that I am currently unemployed due to the seasonal position and to explain why I chose a job that does not offer year round employment. I have already done so on an attachment to form I-129F when explaining our meetings over the past 2 years.

My feeling is, the more they know about my current situation, the better it will be viewed.

Im asking for opinions, do you think its over doing it, since I already mentioned it once before and none of the info is new? Or is it a good idea to re-affirm it since the info may get skipped over as its part of a 4 paragraph statement explaining our meetings?
