Question, when you guys see that people are getting approved. Is this based on what the person approved updates on their timeline ? Or is this straight from USCIS ? Like is there a way we find out before the person getting approved does ? 

 

 

Sorry if the question seems pretty dumb.. just curious

May 5th here!! Can anyone tell me why there seems to be a preference for Philippine applicants? Praying this thing starts to move faster for some of us non-Philippine applicants. We want to see our spouses too :)

Isn't there also preference given to members of the military? And there's a large military base (bases?) in the Philippines.

Most likely pertaining to real estate property, i.e., foreclosures. Credit Card Debt and car loans are not a factor when it comes to financially supporting a dependent.

What about student loan debt?

The I-134 is based on your financial support to the beneficiary (your fiancé). Meaning, you are providing information that shows you meet the poverty requirement.

 

Debt is not considered financial support. The Embassy is not taking any "owed debt" into account. The purpose of the form to make sure that you can afford to take care of your fiancé so that he/she does not become a "public charge" to the US. In short, the government wants to make sure you can afford to take care of your fiancé so that they don't need any state or federal assistance (i.e. welfare).

 

Any owed debt has no bearing on this matter.

For the i-134, you just mail it to your beneficiary to take to their interview right?

Correct...along with your financial supporting documents that are required to show you have sufficient income that meets the US poverty guidelines.

It's based on USCIS. You can find out by either having the USCIS case tracker app for your phone, you can track your case directly on the USCIS website.

 

The person updating their timeline is manual, meaning, VJ does not have the means to know when, who or how the person is approved. The person's timeline is updated by the person approved.

 

And there are no dumb or stupid questions during this process...trust me, I'm almost at my question limit for the week...ha! ;)

So it's not anything we have to "file"per say. I only have about 6.5k in my savings because I was previously a student but now I have a job where my minimal income (excluding my commission) is 22k gross. With commission I make roughly an extra 150-500 per month. I live in a guest house on a big property that my parents own with no monthly charge. Do you think that there will be any problems? I know poverty is 16.4k or around there and I make more than 130% of poverty

As long as you can provide documentation showing you meet the poverty requirements then you should be fine.

 

You will need to provide an employment verification letter on your employer's letter that shows the when you started, how much you make hourly (or salary), title and if you are full time, etc. I would recommend contact your HR dept at your job and tell them what you need and they should be able to provide it to you.

 

You're gonna have to print off your paystubs (I would do 6 months worth but if you just started working then print them all), you're gonna have to provide your previous tax transcripts, and since you are adding your savings information you are gonna need to get a letter from the bank indicating when the account was opened, how much is in the account and/or your average balance.

 

I would recommend you review the information listed under the "guides" tab on this website and also the instruction sheet that comes with the I-134 gives you a list on what supporting documentation you will need to show proof that you meet over the poverty guidelines.
