So we were filling out the affidavit, but after finishing it, my fiancé mentioned about print meaning block capitals. Is it okay if we didn't do that? It's not all lowercase, but it's not all capitalized. I'll print it out again if necessary and send it over, but just want to be sure.

Definitely not all capitalized when filling in a computer. This looks good but THIS LOOKS GROSS.

Only if you are handwriting on it, they want you to fill in Capital letters so that it's easy for them to understand.

We wrote it by hand, and I had already sent it off to my fiancé. If we have to do it again, I will. But I do think my print is legible enough? Should I not worry too much?

No need to worry at all if it's clear to read. They do not necessarily want the capital letters but want the letters not joined to each other so that they don't need to work their ### off to figure out the letter or punch in wrong letters due to misreading.

The USCIS page with the form has a section called Special Instructions. https://www.uscis.gov/i-864

Part of those are:

  • The new form edition has 2D barcode technology to help us collect information quickly and accurately. As you complete the form electronically, the barcode stores your information.
  • Follow the form instructions carefully.
  • We recommend downloading the form from our website and completing it electronically.
  • If you complete the form by hand, please use black ink, keep your answers within the spaces provided, and do not use correction fluid or highlighters.

So in a way you are not following their recommendations and the barcode will not capture your answers. It's possible that will slow things down. It says nowhere that all caps must be used, so that is not a concern.
