Where are you in the visa process? You/the co-sponsor don't need to prove income at the time of filing the I-129F.

I find that the tax transcripts are the simplest way, because you can get them quickly online, they are only 1 page long each and don't require a signature. You won't need these until the time of the interview.

sorry we are on the i-134 she is going to be interviewed july 24th.
Long story short, my sponsor doesn't want to give anymore paperwork regarding his financial information. So I am just going to have to use his 1040 :(

both you and co-sponsor should tick "do not intend" but if the co-sponsor intend to make specific contributions he /she should specify what that could be. it is not a big deal.why you using a co-sponsor? you are unemployed or your income is below poverty guidlines?

You can check yes and then, in the page 7 to provide additional information, write "N/A K1 visa application".

It's what people advise to do for that question.

I am a full time student and the farm work I do for my family isn't taxable income. I have to use a co-sponsor because I have not done taxes for 3 years. I do make money but it's not like a normal job I don't get paid hourly, we have to wait for things to grow before we make money. I am going to send them my bank statements to prove that I do have money saved

So it's better to choose "do not intend?" I selected "Inted" and stated "all expenses including but not limited to their visa expenses, lodging, food, incidental expenses. My Fiancee and I will share my income."
