US Citizen provides this, in the form of an I-134, and financial evidence proving income. DS-156K is the K-Visa application filled out by the beneficiary and given to the consulate for the K-Visa.

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.

Does this take expenses and debt into account? I have college loans, car loans, outstanding credit debt for plane, train and hotel expenses for visits to the UK etc. I was just wondering. I mean we've been saving and saving to make sure that we met the assets requirement if we had to, and my mother said she'd co-sponsor if shereally really had to, but I'd rather not do that to her. I make well above the line, but probably not annually if you take that into account.

Just curious.

You do not count any expenses or debts, ONLY gross income, this is all that the counselor officer is concerned with.
