Does anyone know if the Juarez consulate requires the I-134 or I-864 for proof of financial support?

1Corinthians 13:13 But now faith, hope, and love remain--these three. The greatest of these is love.

Hi Alisa,

I'm eventually headed to Juarez too. Juarez has all of packet 3 online and from what I've seen, they don't require either the I-134 or the I-864. They list form OF-167 as public charge information, so I think this is as much as they require. I think I might take along a an I-134 too just to be safe. It's possible their website it not up to date, but I had a friend go through Juarez as well and said they didn't ask for a single paper proving financial stability. Who knows! I guess I'll just keep waiting...

Buena suerte,

Kara

I would definitely take a I-134 with you in case and all the supporting documents (i.e. tax returns, employer letter, etc.). We saw people turned away when we were in Juarez because they didn't have all the paperwork needed. They did take my I-134 but turned down my parents' I-864 and I-864A as cosponsor telling me to save them for AOS. (Turning down the cosponsors was rather odd - I had no job at the time since I had quit and moved to Mexico 2 years prior - but they only turned it down after seeing my tax returns proving I had an excellent paying job in the US before I quit AND after I confirmed I could return to that job upon my return. (although I did tell them I probably wouldn't be...))

Moral of the story: Better safe than sorry - especially at Juarez

Jeremiah 29:11-13 "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for wholeness and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart"

The Foreign Affairs Manual specifically states that the I-864 is not to be used for K-1 applicants, so by the strict letter of the law it's not legally permissible for the K-1 application to require it.

Of course, that doesn't stop some consulates from incorrectly requesting it... :)
