Bank/Employment information for I-134

[d & s 0]

We got our NOA2 at the end of September. Once we rec'd that, I made sure to go ahead and get both the signed bank information and a letter regarding my full-time employment (figuring it wouldn't take long for the consulate to receive our information). These are both dated over two months ago. We just received the letter from the consulate requesting information. Would the two previously mentioned documents still be valid at two months old? Should I request them again so the date is more recent?

DCF is for immigrant (IR-1 CR-1) visa petitions filed directly to the consulate, that type of visa uses I-864.

Your question involves I-134 which is used for K-Visas so question should be posted to K-1 K-3 or foreign embassy/consulate forum.

Anyway:

I-134 package is valid for several months after putting it together.

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.
