Help filling out I-134

[rachaelk101 0]

Hi,

I am filling out my affidavit of support for my finances upcoming interview.

1.First of all, if my mom is being a co-sponsor, do we both have to fill out our own I-134 or does only she have to if I an unemployed?

2. Next, when it asks info about my fiancé and says list any children should I leave blank, write none or N/A?

3. Question 7 says list your business and who you are employed with, but I am unemployed so should I put none or n/a or write unemployed? And also it says what is your annual income, should I just put $0 since I don't have a job?

4. Question number 8 says list anyone who are dependent on me for support, does this mean I should listen my foreign fiancé? There is no one else who is dependent on me.

5. Question 11 asks what contributions you will make for the person, and I will get a job shortly after we are married so I will be able to support him but I'm worried my fiance will get questioned as to how I'm going to support him while I'm unemployed if I'm not making any money. I also don't own a home (we will live with my mom until my finances AOS and employment authorization comes through then we are moving to Florida) but I don't want to leave that blank as I am the primary sponsor. What should I put?

Thanks so much for all the help!

I do not know all those answers but here is a sample form that you might find helpful.

For LONDON they want a sponsor. If you don't make money, then don't fill out an I-134. Mom will do it.

2. Next, when it asks info about my fiancé and says list any children should I leave blank, write none or N/A?

It says to list children who are coming with him and also will be supported. They don't like blank because you may have overlooked it. No children are coming, so NONE is an appropriate answer.

4. Question number 8 says list anyone who are dependent on me for support, does this mean I should listen my foreign fiancé? There is no one else who is dependent on me.

They want to know about other people besides the current immigrant. On Mom's form, she will list you and anybody else like other kids.

5. Question 11 asks what contributions you will make for the person, and I will get a job shortly after we are married so I will be able to support him but I'm worried my fiance will get questioned as to how I'm going to support him while I'm unemployed if I'm not making any money. I also don't own a home (we will live with my mom until my finances AOS and employment authorization comes through then we are moving to Florida) but I don't want to leave that blank as I am the primary sponsor. What should I put?

You aren't doing a form.

If someone other than the fiance is being the sponsor, then I think "intend" is appropriate because the immigrant isn't going to be the sponsor's spouse. Sponsor can list how they will help like "provide room board, and any financial assistance needed."

I've read that even if you don't make money, since you are the one petitioning for your fiancé YOU are the primary sponsor and stil have to fill out your own, along with a co-sponsor if needed.

That is true for the I-864 which you will provide for AOS. People here often give people the same basic instructions for the I-134, then pass it forward. It is actually not as strict and has very little in actual law except that the officer must be convinced you will not become a public charge.

Some consulates may have their own local customs of what convinces the officer. I'm telling you what London accepts for the I-134. You certainly may do an I -134 too if you like. They also do not require a tax return with other good proof of income. If the British fiance has enough cash, they can prove that to self-sponsor with no I-134.

Here's someone who confirmed only the joint sponsor's affidavit at her interview. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/350185-london-2012-k1s-from-noa2-to-interview-thread/?p=5567415

And this is where the Dept of State says 100% of the poverty guidelines will suffice http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_2994.html#9

Thank you very much for all this info. So I don't have to send my own I-134 but I can? Would there be any problem with me sending one just to be safe so my fiancé can show if they ask? Would they be aggregated by this? Thanks again.

Not a problem. He can turn one in from you.
