Affidavit of Support - Medical Student

[itsakram 0]

So I'm a bit confused about what to do. I recently graduated medical school and will be beginning residency in the next few weeks. So, I have not been working for the past couple of weeks because of school. My father is willing to fill out an I-134 to prove my fiance will not become a public charge. He has the income and assets, so it should not be a problem. But the question I have is regarding myself. As the petitioner, is it correct that I must also submit an I-134? If yes, what would I do about proof of income? I will be beginning work in the next few weeks.

Yes, you must fill out a I-134 too.

If your income is 0 when you fill it out, you put that. However, given your timeline, and the fact that the I-134 is only submitted at interview, you may have begin residency by then.

Oh ok. so once I begin residency, what would i submit? i still will not have a w2 or tax return.

You'ss have some sort of paperwork giving your salary/ scholarship/ source of finding, and also payslips, and also a bank account from which you can show a transaction history with incoming amounts.
