Co-Sponsor Evidence

[hrothgarr 0]

We've received NOA2 and I have everything assembled to send to my fiancee as per the VJ guide. I'm using my father as a co-sponsor and had him fill out a I-134. I have several paychecks, a letter from my boss and some tax stuff for my evidence, but are these same sorts of things required from the co-sponsor? He is a business owner and won't have any paychecks (and he is the "boss"), what will they want to see from him? Also do they want any proof that he is a USC or anything else?

Thanks

They will go by line 22(total income) of his most recent 1040, which will be 2012. If that line shows enough income for his own household size plus the foreign fiance(e), then he qualifies as a co-sponsor. He can provide a complete copy of his return with all forms, schedules, 1099s, etc. He will need proof of being a USC or LPR. He can use a copy of his US birth certificate, naturalization, bio page of US passport or front and back of green card(if LPR).
