Has the I-134 been replaced by the I-864 already. I noticed the I-134 expired on 31 Dec 2013 but it is still available on the USCIS website. Reason why Im asking is because my fiancee has her k1 interview next month and when I visited last month I left her the I-134 to take to the interview. But now that it is expired Im wondering if I should fill out a new I-1864 or if the I-134 is still valid. Does anyone know?

21 Aug 2013: I-129F Sent

11 Feb 2014: Visa APPROVED!

20 May 2014: Wedding!

22 Feb 2017: Mailed ROC Packet

The I-134 and I-864 are two different documents. One does not replace the other. The edition date of the form is what matters, not the expiration date. The current edition of the form is what is available on the USCIS website, and this is the form you should be using.

Exactly.

Not sure where you got the notion that the I-864 is replacing the I-134 from. The I-134 is used for K-1 visa applicants. Once you are in the states, married and filing for AOS, you will then need to use the I-864.

A new edition of this form is coming soon. In the meantime, customers may file using the 12/17/12 or other previous editions.
