Hey everybody, I'm sorry to make a new topic just for this but I haven't seen anything addressing it in any of my reading or on the forums.

My fiance and I have just started the K1 process. We're both 22 and in our last year of college. I've got a part time job which definately provides an insubstantial salary, not too much in assets, but my mother has already agreed to be a co sponsor for the affidavit. Her salary and assets are well over the requirements so that's all good, but I'm worried about my trivial, part-time, and temporary employment since I'm a student yet supposed to be the "main" financial supporter.
Has anybody ever seen this situation? I don't even know what documentation of my years' salaries I could get; I've never made enough to file taxes in the first place. We're not deadbeats, just we haven't graduated and struck out yet.

Thanks a lot for any advice. VJ's really been a lifesaver already in this whole application process. You guys rock.

Yes, we see this question a couple times a week. Looks like you have it covered. You and your mother will fill out, sign, and have notarized separate I-134 forms and get them to your fiance in time for the interview.

Yeah, what he said really! We are in the same boat, My fiancee (US Citizen) is still at school and works part time, however her parents are being co-sponsors as they earn plenty enough. You will be fine

I'm in almost same situation. My fiance has been here in scotland with me most of this year and has never earned enough to file taxes as was student before he came here therefore he hasn't. We too have a co-sponsor lined up.

I am on the same trail as you all are. Planning on having someone in my family lined up as a Co-Sponsor. So far not too worried but that might change as that time comes closer.

Oh good.gif Okay awesome. Sorry I was being redundant then xD It just seems insulting to the government to even fill out the form in the first place, wanna just scrawl 'ARE YOU KIDDING I'M JUST A KID' all over it and send it in.

Thanks guys!
