I-134 Affidavit of Support Question

[nickypeas 0]

My fiance is finishing up her last semester of university, so she only works part time and won't meet the minimum income required on the I-134, and she probably won't meet it until several months after she graduates. We'd like to get married as soon as possible though, so we'd rather not wait an additional year for her finances to pick up. Her parents are happy and willing, and easily earn enough income, to offer secondary I-134 support.

So my question is, will that be acceptable to the CIS? Do we stand a chance of success going the double affidavit route, or should we just wait until she has a steady job?

nickypeas,

If you have another financial sponsor in mind, then go for it. Many people get approved with a financial sponsor, that is not the petition sponsor.

This is not the critical stage for support affidavits, that would be during AOS.

nickypeas,

CIS isn't going to review the I-134, a consular officer is. And since your fiancee doesn't qualify to sponsor you for your visa one or both of her parents are going to have to be your sponsor.

Ok, but will that be acceptable as long as her parents have the qualifying income (which they do)?

nickypeas,

Should be, as long as they are otherwise qualified as well. (Income level is the biggie, but not the only.)

That's a relief. Thanks.
