I-1864 for K-1?

[Alex&Mari 0]

Hello people!!

Any of you were asked by USEM for the I-864F? It was my understanding that this form is for AOS.

I read in the NVC site, that I-864 is only for immigrants visa and AOS once married, NOT for K-1 interview. Idk, but I reply to USEM the exact paragraph I read. Here--> During the visa interview, applicants will be required to present evidence to the Consular Officer that they will not become a public charge in the U.S. You may present evidence that you are able to financially support yourself or that your U.S. citizen fiancé(e) is able to provide support. The Consular Officer may request that a Form I-134, Affidavit of Support be submitted by the U.S. citizen fiancé(e). The U.S. citizen fiancé(e) will need to submit Form I-864 to USCIS with the application for adjustment of status to that of legal permanent resident following the marriage. <----

Its clear, huh? I don't know why they asking NOW for this after I sent all the documents to USEM and they emailed me confirming all was OK in accordance with the requirements (I sent I-134F with transcript 1040 + W2 + employment letter + recent paystubs) The interview is in 10 days!!! Is insane

Anyone can show me some light about that??

Thanks,

Mari and Alex

Generally, you need the I-134 for the K1 interview and you need the I-864 for the filing of AOS. I have heard of some embassies requiring both at the K1 interview stage, I'm not sure if Bolivia is one of them.

Yes, I understand. For that I don't know why the Consulate is asking for I-864. I already sent I-134, today I received an email asking for I-864 and the interview is in less than 10 days. I wrote to the Consulate informing them that according to the instructions of I-864, is used after the marriage for the AOS. I will wait for their response tomorrow.

Cocunuts and payxibka I really appreciate your responses. Thanks.

Coconuts and payxibka I really appreciate your responses. Thanks.

Also...

I-864 never even named in the Packet 4 and does not appear in the consular information. I think it's a mistake for them. Just a few weeks ago the Embassy assured me that the DS 156 was not an electronically form. So. .. I can expect anything, but I hope this will clear up.

Hi vjers

An update...

The Consulate notified me that I-864 is required when using a cosponsor. While the k1 visa is non an immigrant visa is treated as such because the beneficiary is not going to visit USA but he will have a possible change of status. So, I have to submit the form I-864.
