I-134 Questions

This is what is have in income and assets. Can anyone tell me if they think it is enough for a household of 3?

Annual Income: $36000 (that is the annual income of my new job that started last week, and for which I will have one pay stub and an employment letter as my only proof. I have also three years of tax returns 2010 - $16000, 2011 - $24000, 2012 - $27000. I have been employed continuously for the last 5 years.)

Assets: Cash $5000 in US bank account for which I can give a bank statement as support. The bank does not provide an official letter but only a copy of the bank statement they email to me every month. I also have cash in a foreign bank account (I have been living abroad for the last five years) of $8000. Can I show a statement from my foreign bank account as proof of funds as well?

Home: Purchased in the last 6 months, debt free valued at $135000.

My main concern is that they won't consider my annual income as sustainable since its a new job at the family business and if that is the case are my assets enough? Co-sponsorship is not a great option for me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The I-864P lists income requirements, look at the 125% column.

For 3 people even your 2012 income is adequate. Don't worry about a new job, you have the employer letter and pay stubs you are good. You will still need your tax return for 2012 and W-2.

If your income meets or exceeds the poverty guidelines you do not need bank statements - no harm to bring them but not necessary UNLESS the embassy specifies they are required (as opposed to MAY include)

Does anyone know if I can include money in a foreign bank account or the money must be in a US account?
