I-134 Form Field Questions

[erniek 0]

So, about the affidavit of support that i (the US Citizen) fill out...

Question 3 asks for address... I assume they want the address of my fiancee in Thailand... but it only have room for a USA style address... including 2 letters for "state" which I guess would be "Bangkok" (province). Is our State Department clearly that inebt that they don't know that the rest of the world isn't just like the US? I really don't know how I would squeeze Province names in there via computer... short of printing and hand writing it.

Question 11 asks if you "intend or not intentd" to make specific contributions to the support of person in Question 3. I have no idea how to answer that.... We're going to be married... this is a fiance visa. Of course I intend to support her, we will be sharing everthing... but I don't plan on making "specific contributions" of X dollars a month or something. Seems like a bogus question that should be visa type specific. But I am afraid to leave it blank, or choose the wrong one in case it makes a difference to the Governement. The follow up question is to enumerate what i would be contributing to her. Again, no idea what to say.

And then at the bottom in the signature area it states:

"I acknowledge that i have read "sponser and alien liabity" ..... as amended, and the Food Stamp Act, as amended. "

followed by a blank field to put something in....

but then you sign and date it half an inch below... so I don't know what the blank field is for? Print your name? Sign your name a stupid second time? Initial it?

And of course their "instructions" for filling out the form, contain no help at all about what they are asking for in any of this.

Any advice?

If there is no state, leave it blank. You do not check either one for #11. Check out the example form for more details on how to fill it out> http://www.visajourney.com/examples/Form-I-134.pdf

The box at the bottom is a glitch in the form. If you mouse over it you will see it is asking 'Enter Relationship', which makes no sense there. Leave it blank and just sign and date below where it asks.

The State dept is aware of the world in general as I am sure you must know. They think people would use common sense when it comes to these forms. For example if your info wont fit on the form simply attach another piece of paper on which you have included any info that wont fit on the form. Make sure you include any info they would need to identify who sent it for which case. Keep in mind the forms are used world wide and in some ways are generic.

If she lives in BKK it would be BKK for the province.

You could indicate support as needed. The 134 is used for other applications where it possible to identify a certain level of support only.

Mistakes in filling out the form can be corrected as required but they understand sometimes its not clear to everyone. Leave out anything you feel is stupid and they will explain it to you or your fiancé later. It will simply cause a short delay but allow a clearer understanding of what is being asked.
