Hey everyone,

 

Okay so I have some questions regarding the Affidavit of Support (I-134) and joint sponsors 

 

  1. If the petitioner dosent fully meet income requirements (student), do we complete an I-134 form for BOTH the petitioner and a joint sponsor?
  2. If a joint sponsor is used (a parent for example), can the joint sponsor (parent) include the spouses (other parent) income as well as assets or something...idk if that makes sense? if so...how?
  3. What documents am I required to bring to the interview regarding financial stuff (I-134, tax returns, etc). When the embassy received my petition, I got an email saying they need me to bring the I-134 as well with last years tax returns...is it safe to assume that this is all I need or is there anything else I can bring to prove I won't be a public charge? If so, what?
  4. From my understanding, not all embassies accept joint sponsors. How do I find out if my embassy accepts them (I think they do but I just want to make sure)?

 

Cheers,

Dan

1. Usually both petitioner and joint sponsor have to file an I-134.

2. Yes, they can included assets. I'm not sure about spouses.

3. Both, petitioner and joint sponsor, need to make tax returns available. Some embassies/consulates also want a letter from the employer etc. and prove of the included assets.

4. Best way: ask you consulate/embassy.

 

Also could you fill out your timeline? Then people can help you better (give you country specific requirements etc.).

you can add as many sponsors you want. keep in mind you need to summit proof of relationship with the sponsor's who are they to you? so they must write a letter stating the relationship. summit also their taxes, it is best if you get their transcript is just less paperwork. also get employee letter from sponsors.

for the interview bring all this with you as well, and be prepare to not use it. yup in my interview they didn't even ask for any of this. but everyone case is different is better to be prepare
