I-134--intend or do not intend?

[earinsound 0]

Item 11 on the I-134 asks if I "intend" or "do not intend" to "make specific contributions to the support" of my fiancee. I figure that because she will be my wife I will support her for whatever is needed, as most married folks do. If she lives with me am I "furnishing room and board"?

Intend or do not intend, that is the question...

Anyone have any recommendations as to what I can write in this section?

Put you DO intend and about the housing and board

Cool. Thanks!

"I intend to provide room and board for the entirety of our marriage."

How's that?

I will chose Intend and in the text area below, use what is in the example form:

"N/A ( K1 visa process for permanent residence )"

They dont want to know what contributions you will make after your fiance arrives in the US. they are asking if you intend to support her (financially) while you guys are apart....

"Intend" refers to a future action. The I-134 is required to prove that the fiance/ee won't become a public charge AFTER arriving in the US (or wherever). Why would they care about how she supports herself in her home country?

What "example form" is that?

I-134 is for the period of time you are apart from your fiance

the I-864 which you have to file for the AOS is for future actions and support

I-134 Question 11

That I intend/do not intend to make specific contributions to the support of the person named in item 3.

Option 1:All expenses including but not limited to their visa expenses, airline tickets, US domestic lodging, transportation, food, incidental expenses and medical insurance.

Option 2: N/A (K1 visa process for permanent residence)

Question 11

The I-134 is not a requirement for K visas even though the Embassys use this amongst other things in order to ascertain that the beneficiary/applicant will not become a public charge. The I-134 is geared towards other types of non immigrant visas. Q11 leans toward those completing the form when an applicant is not going to be living in the US permanently, such as sponsored visitors, when an allowance etc will be given to the applicant during their stay in the US. The guide suggests N/A for this reason.

Does it matter if my fiance doesn't put anything there? if he doesn"t click intend, does it affect me getting the visa at all?

You need to put intend, because its saying that they intend to support you.

We put intend and my husband put that he intended to suport me with room and board for the duration of our marriage - and now we've done the I-864.

My fiance's parents actually bought and make payments for the house we will be living in. His dad will also be a co-sponsor. On the form he put "N/A (K1 visa process for permanent residence)" Should he say he will intend to furnish room and board? If his dad put intend, does my fiance have to also?

Well heres my situation:

My husband is a full time student and makes about $7000 a year, obviously we needed a co-sponser.

On his form he put what I said and his mother the co-sponser said she would contribute to us whatever we needed.

Hope this helps.
