K1 visa. DS-160 or DS-260? I-134 or I-864

Some confusion as to which forms are required. Looking at the US consulate in Manila website, they list the DS-260 is required. We thought we needed the DS- 160. 
 

Same for the statement of support. The consulate lists I-864, and again, we thought we needed the I-134. 
 

If you can clarify this, thank you.

That checklist is a generic one for immigrant visa and K1 cases.  Not every item applies to all cases.  For K1, DS-160 and I-134 are required, while DS-260 and I-864 are not applicable.  Though you will need the I-864 for the AOS process, but that's after US entry and marriage.

The DS-160 and I-134 are, in fact, applicable to K-1 visas (although I'm not sure Manila requires the I-134).  Good luck on your journey.

Thank you Boiler, Chancey and Crazy Cat for putting our minds at ease.
