I-134 help required

[ZC117 0]

My USC fiancée' father will co-sponsor me for my K1-Visa, does that mean that both my fiancée and her father fill out one each and send the information to me or does it require her father only?

Also, her father owns a business and is wary of the required information needed on the form, what documentation would he require for it to be suitable evidence?

Thank you for any suggestions

London only requires a sponsor. If fiancé doesn't make any money, they will accept Dad's only. If fiancé makes a good bit, his evidence will sweeten the pot. There are no specific rules. It is a judgement call as to whether they think you are not likely to become a public charge.

Dad should submit his 2012 tax return....that is a COMPLETE tax return showing all the schedules in his personal return. If the business has it's own business tax return, don't send that. A business can not sponsor. He can't very well get an employer letter from himself. He could write a statement telling about his business---how long in business, kind of business, how many employees for informational purposes. If he pays himself a regular salary, he might have pay stubs. London doesn't require a tax return if you have those other proofs, but as the owner of the business his tax return is probably to best (only?) proof.

Thank you, this is a huge help.

His business is feed mill, he owns the business but also manages it, which made them unsure regarding what route he should take.

So a full Tax return with information regarding his business (statement about what it is etc) will be enough evidence? (Just double checking again, I'll relay this information you see.)

Yes, I think the statement about his business will show it's a fairly big operation and will be impressive. It will certainly clarify that it's not a small gig run out of his home. He can also order a tax transcript, which takes the place of a tax return. Read about it here for how to order in #1 on this London list http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/350185-london-2012-k1s-from-noa2-to-interview-thread/

Might as well order 3 years because you might want to include them with your AOS I-864.

If his income is good, then he does not have to fill out all his asset and bank account information. Leave it blank. Tell him to provide anything that will show his yearly income if there is a second thing he might think of like paychecks or showing direct deposits from the feed mill into a few recent bank statements. There is no precise list for London, so tell him to think of a second way to show his income as a back-up. I am sure the tax return will do it, but it never hurts to have one more supporting item if possible to add a little icing to the cupcake.

If he is concerned about confidentiality, he can seal his I-134 and documentation in an envelope marked to be opened by US Embassy Personnel Only. You hand it over sealed at your interview. As a Mom of grown daughters, I would be hesitant to show all my financial business to a future in-law in a foreign country and wonder if it would be left lying around for all her friends and family to view. Oh, let's see how rich your FIL is.. You might make the offer..."if you want to keep your things more confidential, seal everything.....etc". He will probably think you are very thoughtful and awesome for saying that.

You have been superb, thank you. If I could hug you I would.

My fiancee is concerned about the paperwork. Her father who is co-sponsoring only has a joint tax return as him and his wife own the business. Is this acceptable?
