Yes, another option at this point would be to withdraw the I864 if the sponsoree was not yet an LPR, but that is up to the OP. 

Agree.....

Sorry for just getting back to you it is the I-134

Then you are not on the hook for anything. The I-134 is a non-binding document unlike the 864...

Finally done...

What is the difference between I-134 and I-864? Do you know which needs to be used for K-1 VISA?

During the interview phase you are usually asked to submit a 134 as a sponsor or co sponsor. It is non binding. An 864 is used during adjustment of status after the k1 beneficiary arrives in the USA and wants to apply for a "green card."

Finally done...

Not trying to speak for missileman... What you put on the 134 for your friend is not binding. You do not have to put it on your 134. It would only be binding if you filled out and signed an 864 for your friend when they attempt to adjust status. If you do not want to support your friend DON'T. Do not fill out and sign an 864 for them...

Finally done...

I made the huge mistake of signing an 864 two years ago for a friend without exactly knowing the seriousness of it.  My "Friend" told me it would be only while  he got his social security number. It was my fault for trusting and not reading. 

Now  I am signing I-134  for the K-1 Visa .

Then you are on the hook and you have to list this on your I-134 and later on the 864.
