I-134

[sarah and hicham 3]

Hello,

I will have a co sponsor for the I-134, but in the meantime I am a very poor student. Is there a requirement of income or balance in the bank for me even though I will have a co sponsor? Will it look bad if my bank account is not as plentiful as I wish it was? I sure hope not!

Thanks,

K. bye.

No, as far as I can tell it's fine if your accounts are all zeros, as long as you have a cosponsor who meets the requirements. Don't forget to still fill out the I-134, since you are still the primary sponsor, and attach your income taxes or a letter stating why you don't file taxes. I included information on my student loans, too, just to show I'm not totally broke.

They never looked at our I-134, so I have no idea if that was important or not.

i agree with sharon. as long as you have a co-sponsor you should be fine. Your a student and everything is taken into consideration.

Thanks for responding!

So do I need to actually get a letter from my bank stating that I have no money? Or should my brother (my co sponsor) only have to send that in? Will Casa even look at my section of the I-134 as long as I have a co sponsor?

Thanks y'all.

You should fill out the form the same way your co-sponsor will. That includes a statement from your bank, even if it's not impressive, tax returns if you filed them, and pay stubs from any part-time or work-study job you might have. I don't know if they'll look at your I-134; they didn't look at either mine or my co-sponsor's. But it's best to be prepared, you don't want to be held up at the end of all this for a silly reason like not filling out your I-134 correctly!

I didn't send a letter from my bank, I just sent a year's worth of bank statement copies. I did the same for the AOS.

I too only sent a years of bank statements, and just the front page coz all they want to know is what you deposited, and what your balance is.

Why do you need bank statements with the AOS? I thought you just needed to send in you last 3 years worth of taxes. I was not planning to send in bank statments because there is nothing there! I have a bank account, but I am concentrating on paying past debts (from my divorce) before he arrives and not saving anything right now.

What is the difference between I134and I864? Which one do I use?

LOL I think this is one of those times where you are supposed to read the instructions first

I134 and yes I need bank statments or a statment from the bank...I'm gonna opt for a letter from the bank, it will be eaiser and less paper.
