Assets & financials for K1 embassy interview

[Purple_Paladin 8]

I'm filling out the I-134 form for my fiance to take with him to his appointment.

I was going to include my home as 'collateral' for this under assets but I just saw the portion that explained there needs to be a 'recent' home appraisal for this. 

I have documentation from the mortgage company to prove that my home is mine, but the most recent appraisal that I have is from 2020 when I refinanced my home. I'm guessing that isn't recent enough. I have documentation from my mortgage company of the estimated equity in my home, but they specified the appraisal so I'm guessing that won't matter.

 

Beyond that, I just have my income. I do have a retirement fund. Should I include that instead? I don't have tons of savings at the moment, I'm currently in nursing school. I do work full time as well and I make enough to cover the poverty guideline. 

I guess my question is, do I need to list assets? Or is proof of income enough?

 

TIA!

i didn't list any assets (i only have a car, but still)

 

if you make the 100% of the poverty line, you'll be fine.

 

the only things they will more than likely ask for are your tax return transcripts, W2, pay stubs, and/or an employment authorization letter.

 

assets are really only needed if you can't prove you make more than the poverty line

Same here... My income was well above the requirement and did not list any assets at all.
