1. i make a little more than what is stated in the poverty guidelines.. so to make sure.. were going to use a co-sponsor... can i use my cousin.. but heres the thing.. she already sponsored her parents (they got approved) would i still be able to use her as a co-sponsor?? (they-her and her husband-- make way more than enough than the poverty guidelines...)

2. how many co-sponsors can you have?? can you have more than one??

As long as you make more then the poverty guidelines, you do not need a sponser at all.

Don't fret. It will be okay. Deep breath.................

I thought this was asked and answered yesterday? http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...c=88111&hl=

As long as you make 125% of the poverty line no co sponsor is needed.

Yah, that is what I came up with.

It's okay if you are nervous and keep on asking. I remember being there myself.

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 or property values).
