Affidavit of Support

[Jimmy the American 0]

Can someone give me information on Affidavit of Support forms, etc for Montreal. Do they use the I-134. Where can I get instructions for it? How do I know who's qualified to fill it out for me? Does it have to be the petitioner, what if he didn't make enough.

A lot of questions!

• First the instructions are included with the form. I-134
  
• To determine if you make enough look at the poverty Guidelines I-864P I-864P
  
• Yes The petitioner have to file it. If petitioner dosnt make the 125% poverty level in I-864P then get a co sponsor like a parent.
  
• Yes they use I-134 for K-1 visa.

Does the co-sponser have to make enough to support just me or also the petitioner?

The co sponsor needs to make enough to make up the difference between petitioner's income and assets and 125% poverty line when counting petitioner, and beneficiaries.

YuAndDan,

No, the petitioner does not necessarily have to provide an I-134, especially if the petitioner is not going to be the sponsor. Only if the consular officer wants it for some reason.

A K visa is a non-immigrant visa, immigrant visa requirements do not apply.

Hold on - the co-sponsor only has to make up the difference between the petitioner's income and the 125% mark? I've always seen on here that if the petitioner can't reach the 125%, then it is solely the resposibility of the co-sponsor to demonstrate they can offer 125% of the poverty line for his/her own dependants, plus the petitioner, beneficiary, and any of their dependants. Which is it - the co-sponsor and petitioner combine, or just the co-sponsor?

That's not correct. I-864 Joint Sponsors must satisfy the PG on their own.

There is no such creature as a "co sponsor".

Joint Sponsors never need to include petitioners unless they are household members (or the rare instance of a petition/dependant).

Jimmy the American,

As a USC, the American people will support the petitioner should the need arise. It's the visa applicant that some willing (and qualified) individual must support.
