I-134 supporting documents, Germany

[jae 0]

Our I-129F petition was approved and actually I have already received the package 3 from the Consulate General In Frankfurt .

I have read a lot about documents which were submitted with the I-134 affidavit at the interview: LES, pay stubs, W2s, tax returns and so on.

My question is:

what is necessary to take, what is a must take, what is (strongly) recommended?

I know that one must have the statement of the bank and the statement of the employer, but besides that...?

On the VJ page about the Frankfurt Consulate there is something written about the OF 167 which was NOT in my package 3. Do I need to call them?

Thanks for any advice.

The consulates tend to treat the I-134 like a mini-I-864 as so prefer the same financial evidence as the I-864.

In our case this what the I-134 included.

• I-134 signed and notarized.

• SIMPLE Tax transcripts from the IRS for past 3 years, (Redundant for the (1040,W2,1099) but are free from the IRS http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq1-6.html

• Photo copy of IRS form 1040, and W2s for past 3 years (Not necessary if you provide the transcripts)

• Letter from my employer stating annual salary, job responsibility, and that is full time, on company letterhead.

• Photo copies of past month or so of pay stubs up to a few weeks before the interview.

My income was well above 125% povertyline so I did not include any asset data (LIKE BANK STATEMENTS).

Again Bank Statements are not needed if income meets or exceeds 125% povertyline.

i just had my interview in frankfurt this thursday and everything went fine, even i thought it wouldnt because of the affidavit!!

this is what i had and it turned out to be enough:

+ I-134 signed and notorized

+ letter of employer on company letter head with starting date, position, hourly payment, amount hours worked and that its full time

+ 2 most recent pay stubs

+ 2 last tax returns (no original, just the e-file)

+ print out of his savings plan

his income is way above the 125% of the poverty line but i was still a little concerned cause my fiance just started to work there at the beginning of july and i didnt have a proof for his life insurance. in the end nothing else was needed and i was good!

I had my interview on 17th in Moscow I had with me also form 864,but they never took it.

all they need is:

+ I-134 signed and notorized

+ letter of employer on company letter head with starting date, position, hourly payment, amount hours worked and that its full time

+ 2 most recent pay stubs

+ 2 last tax returns (no original, just the e-file)-tax returns from 2006,i had with me 2005 and 2004 w2 and taxt transcrips they never took it either

+ print out of his savings plan

All they need is to see you have support and you will not be on a social support.

You can check my post about interview I wrote all in details.

By the way dont forget about the evidence.Sometimes they dont look at it,but in my case they looked at all of it.So I would suggest better have all of it!

Good luck!
