My Dad so graciously agreed to help my fiance and me file for the K-1 visa by being his financial support. I'm a college student, so I don't even begin to meet the poverty standards. I understand all the directions on the visa (the notary, evidence, etc), however, I'm a bit unclear on something.

I shouldn't need to file the affidavit of support myself, because I'm not the one that would be financially responsible for him, right?

This is all still quite a while away, but I'd rather worry about this than finals right now. :) We plan to send our I-129F packet in on the 1st of January (it's all set and ready to go, signed and pre-dated). I'm getting so excited!

For the visa all they need is a sponsor to show that the K-1 Non-Immigrant will not become a charge of the state, it is best for you to fill out an I-134 and your father will also fill out an I-134.

But when you do marry and then adjust status, you will have to be the primary sponsor, and your father can be co-sponsor.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

I believe you must also fill out the I-134, I quite remember reading some where, that the petitioner must file the I-134 and if you don't make enough then you have a co sponsor. I wish I could remember where I read that, if I so happen to find it, I'll post it on here. Hope this helps for now, Best wishes

ok here it is, from the guides section, on the bottom of the page, under other important things to know. It says affidavit of support tips, in case you want to read all of it, but I'll give you this little info.

The US fiance is ALWAYS the primary sponsor, but may have a co-sponsor. If there is a co-sponsor, both the

US fiance and the co-sponsor will EACH have to fill out the affidavit I-134 or I-864 and EACH will have to provide

supporting documentation.
