Now that our K3 petition is hopefully on the way to the NVC, we are starting to think more about the embassy side of things. My mum in law (our co-sponsor) had a few questions but I am still a bit hazy on the rules and don't want to answer incorrectly so thought I'd ask on here.

Now I am aware (from asking here previously) that the form to complete is the I-134 for the K3, so her questions are as follows:-

1) She files taxes jointly with my father in law, do they each need to fill in and sign an individual I-134? If not, does he have to countersign her form? Or is one form signed by my mother in law sufficient? (there was a problem in the K3 forum recently which prompted this question)

2) Does she only have to get the I-134 notarised or also the supporting evidence? Do the photocopies
that the embassy will keep have to be notarised?

3) Is there such a thing as getting the form notarised too early? (I noticed that the VJ guide said to do it as quickly as possible, but she was worried).

4) As a co-sponsor I believe she has to provide the same evidence as Josh (hubby): pay stubs, letter from employer etc

5) We believe as she earns over the 125% poverty guidelines value, she does not have to provide further financial information (value of house, value in bank, retirement funds etc) but is it beneficial to do so?

1. Due to the recent problem, I'm not sure about this one. I would probably have said "no" before, but who knows now?

2. I would just get the I-134 notarised.

3. I wouldn't do it more than a few months in advance, but it's less than a few months for you now, isn't it?

4. Yep, that's right.

5. If she earns a lot over the guideline, I wouldn't bother with the extra stuff. If she's only a few thousand over, it might be helpful to fill out that section. I would have her forego the house valuation due to the effort and possible expense to her but put down savings/checking as a back up.

Thanks MargotDarko, very very helpful as always

Hopefully if there isn't too much of a delay getting to the NVC -> transferring to the embassy -> scheduling the interview, then it will be 2 to 2.5 months from now I'm getting excited now as we're almost making progress... hearing from the NVC that they have our file will be a huge milestone in this who journey Josh is aiming to pester them all this week, as we know they have received cases close to our approval date

No problem! And it really shouldn't be too much longer than a couple months now!
