I-134 question

[Gary & Aubrey 23]

Hello all!

I have a quick question about the Affidavit of Support to accompany the K-1 visa. I am currently enrolled in online schooling and have been visiting my fiance in England for the past three months, with three more to go before I return home. I have not worked in this time due to my visitor visa status, and thus cannot fulfill the I-134 income requirements. My parents have offered to sponsor my fiance, as they make much more than the necessary income amount (about 3x as much). My question is thus: Do I need to fill out an I-134, knowing that I will need my parents? Or, could I just use theirs? I understand I am the petitioner and thus his 'sponsor', so I am curious if it is necessary for me or if theirs is good enough? I have no pay stubs or employment verification for the most recent period due to not working, so have nothing to accompany an I-134 if I did need to submit one.

Thank you!

Yes, you are required to complete the I-134 even if you don't meet the poverty level. Your parents would complete a separate I-134.

Has he considered self sponsoring?

Your best bet is your parent's being co-sponsors, London accepts this.

For an interview in LONDON they will be happy to accept an I-134 from the parent only...whichever one makes enough. London also likes employer letter as proof of their income, If they can get one. Otherwise provide their most recent tax return. They don't want income proved five different ways. Pretty easy in London.

Thank you for the quick responses!

My parents have sent over the signed forms, along with bank statements, tax returns and employee verification letters. I have heard that London is not too picky with a lot of things, but I figured that my fiancé can give them what they want when they want it.

Sounds like you are all set then. Are your parents going to sponsor him for AoS? That puts them under a legal obligation I think whereas the k1 part doesn't really. if they are make sure they understand the implications.
