Did VO mess up?

Is the form I-134 required? Or is just showing supporting financial forms enough?

Yes its a required form part of the K1 P3 package.

Strictly speaking from regulations, it is not required. It is however the common practice.

From the U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual Procedural Notes

9 FAM 41.81 PN2 EVIDENCE OF SUPPORT

(CT:VISA-1823; 03-15-2012)

A K visa applicant and any accompanying children must meet the public charge requirement of INA 212(a)(4) (8 U.S.C. 1182) like any other visa applicant. Evidence of support is usually requested by the consular officer. There is, however, no absolute requirement that an affidavit of support or other public charge documentation be presented. It is only necessary that the consular officer be able to conclude that the alien is not likely to become a public charge. It would not be unusual, therefore, for a healthy alien of working age, applying alone, to be able to establish eligibility during the visa interview without the need for substantiating documentation.

9 FAM 41.81 N4 DOCUMENTARY REQUIREMENTS

b. K-1 and K-3 applicants are subject to INA 212(a)(4) and must demonstrate to the consular officer's satisfaction that they will not become a public charge. The Form I-864, Affidavit of Support Under Section 213 A of the Act, cannot be required. Applicants may submit a letter from the petitioner's employer or evidence that they will be self-supporting. The Form I-134, Affidavit of Support, may be required when the consular officer deems it useful

@CorvusHeart, STOP PANICKING.

We know your fiance had his interview on Friday.

We understand he was approved at this time.

We assume they kept his passport and all fees have been paid.

In the very very very unlikely event that anything was overlooked, the information will be requested by the embassy by mail.

In reality your fiance will receive a large envelope in the mail with his passport and immigration documents will be contained within.

During my wife`s visa interview (K1) we weren`t asked to present a I-134 therefore I don`t think you`ll have any problems. Her visa came within 4 days with no AP
