I-134 questions

[jungle666 0]

Hello everyone, i am trying to bring my fiance to the US. She lives in Peru at this moment. I was approved at the CIS and now waiting until NVC receives my application and sends it to the embassy in Peru. I finished college about more than a year ago so i really didn't have any income before that. I started working after i finished college on August, 2006 and now i make enough to cover the minimum. I read that i would need my last 3 incomes which i do not have since i was studying, i only have 2006 and i made about 12000$ since i only worked 4 months. I am guessing i need a co-sponsor. Now my sister is going to be my co-sponsor and i think the form i need to fill out is the I-134. I now that i need two of them, one for her and one for me, i am right?.

My questions are:

What are the requirements or documents that my sister and i need to show to the embassy?

The only thing i asked her was to get me her last 3 income tax returns. I only asked my employer to give me prove that i am currently working. I also read that i need my stubs and bank info which i can get those with no problem .

But would she need to get all this info too (stubs, bank info) ?? or what other documents am i missing or what else does she need to give me?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

You may not need a co-sponsor if you can show that you are now making enough, Pay-stubs, and employer letter does that.

The directions included with I-134 are very old, USCIS has no reason to update them since USCIS has no application for that form.

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 the povertyline so I did not include any asset data (LIKE BANK STATEMENTS or property values).

If your income exceeds 125% of the povertyline when counting yourself, prospective immigrant and any dependents, then don't bother with assets (401K, Bank balance, Stocks etc..), it is just extra un-needed data to provide, the consular officer is most concerned with INCOME.
