i just got an email response from the embassy (and i'm quite shocked, lol)

i asked them about the i-864 since i had filled out the i-134 instead and their response is that i should follow the instructions on the checklist.

so now i'm going through the redundancy of filling out both forms just in case. what an inconvenience!

Did you fiance ever receive Packet 3?

he picked it up at the embassy on the 19th. it said that he needs the i-864, some 3/4 view passport photos, and $335 for the visa fee. this has been discussed here, and it's said that these items are not necessary for the k-1. but the embassy has advised us to follow the checklist.

I have a question about the packet 3...

It includes the name of Marlon's son on the welcome letter. Marlon is a little worried because we forgot to fill out questions 21a & b on the DS-230 part 1. His son will not be coming to the US until much later. What should we do? :help:

You should be fine. His name is probably listed on the welcome letter b/c he added to the I-129f form. Since he will not be traveling w/Marlon he was correct by not including it on the DS-230 forms.

He does NOT need the I-864 only the I-134, I have an email from the embassy stating that it is the I-134. Also, the visa fee is $100.00 payable in JA money and the courier fee in American money (someone please correct me if I am wrong.) The I-864 is for married people only hence why it is needed during AOS.

oooh sarah i'm so glad you got your interview date! mine is several hours before yours. it would've been awesome if we were both there at the same time though. we talked about starting our visa journey at the same time and here we are having interviews on the same day. imagine that!

i can't believe the embassy is giving different answers to the same question! i was very specific in what i asked regarding the i-134 vs i-865 and was told to stick with what the packet asked for. hmph!

If it makes you feel better go ahead and do both but I am just going to stick with the I-134 as I have an email from them that Marlon can reference. I am so glad that Marlon and your honey are interviewing on the same day!!!! :dance: That means hopefully they will be here in our arms by the end of August! :luv:

i will be going to the interview. i booked my flight within 10 minutes of finding out the interview date. i'm one eager beaver.

12/11- i'd be upset about not getting an interview date too. especially since it was turned in before those who got interview dates. by the time we all get through this 'patience' should be our middle names!

about the i-864...yes you will need it for a co-sponser.....when i had to get one i needed my parents to fill that out...actually they filled out both the i-134 and the i-864 and when mike went to turn it in the lady said wow you have a lot of papers but we only need the i-864....

oh and if your co-sponser if married of files jointly then they will need the i-864a
