Documents for visa processing

[Bikesnjaz 3]

I am about to send off a small mound of documents for our visa processing in Manila, and I have three questions, please:

1. For the Affidavit of Support (I-134), do I indeed need to submit TWO copies of all the back-up documents (such as about bank information)?

2. Her daughter is 21/2 years old (turns 3 in May). Do I need to submit a separate I-134 for her?

3. Does she need to fill out a separate DS-156 form for her daughter?

Thank you all. I am VERY appreciative of the help and support I have rec'd from this very practical group!!

I would send the documents that require your original signature like the I-134 by mail. All the other paperwork you can e-mail to her and she can print out. This will save you some money. You don't need two copies of your financials. One copy of each should suffice. When I did mine on my first K1, I porvided 3 years of tax transcripts, W2's, Letter of Employment verifation from employer, letter from bank and 6 of my most recent paycheck stubs. I believe it is better to give more then less. I believe at this point the only paperwork requiring your signature is the I-134. If I am wrong then others will speak up. She will need two copies of the DS-156 and DS-157. Once copy of the DS-156K. Please see the link below for the packet she should follow in prepartion for her Embassy interview in Manila. On the DS-156 question #34 there is a place for persons that will be traveling with you. maybe this is enough. VJ members who have more knwledge of this information please comment. Please have her also review the reviews of the US Embassy in Manila. Others sahre their experiences and tell you some of the questions being asked by the prescreeners and Consular Officer. Good Luck.
