I-134 and Bank statements

[Steve64 1]

I will shortly begin putting together my I-134 affidavit of support. Do the bank statements I enclose have to be signed by a bank official or can I just print them myself. One of my banks is local and the other is online. I closed the online account last month and transferred the money to my local bank. Do I have to still get a signature from the online bank ? Any additional info you can pass along would be appreciated. Steve

you really dont need bank statements as long as you make above the required poverty level. I had the same question running through my head I am an underwriter for a bank and tried to approach this whole process in the same way as its all a matter of proving this and that very similar concept to a loan application as a rule its always good to provide what you need giving extra info is more work for the other party and can always leave room for more questions etc.. though I do have alot of savings I elected to leave this out as its really not a requirement as long as yuou make enough money to cover the poverty level.

I make way more than the proverty levels so didn't include any bank or asset information. Just pay check summaries, tax transcripts and employer letter.

I'm starting my I-134 but my main concern is I don't have an Employer per se. I work for the Union and go to various employers (electrical construction). Though currently I am serving in military thru Feb next year. I have tax records, paystubs but nothing indicating employer. do i send a copy of my orders? I will not know who I am working for till i return from duty.
