Hi everyone. So I'm filling out the I-134 Affidavit of Support and am very confused. On question 11 it states: I [ intend ] or [ do not intend to make specific contributions to support of the person named (my fiance)]. I don't fully understand what I should do. It says if I check [intend] then to indicate the exact nature and duration of the contributions but we are getting married so I'm not totally sure what they want. The whole purpose of the Affidavit of Support and to say you support this person. I'm just so confused. Hopefully one of you can help me.

It's because the form is not really "designed" for a K-1 application. Do not worry too much about that part, check yes or do not check anything, it's fine.

I wrote that I intend to support him until we are married, at which point we will support each other ;)

I think the biggest concern is when your fiancée first arrives in the country on the K-1 Visa. If, for some reason, you don't go through with the marriage, your fiancée can't be a burden to the US.

If they decide not to marry, then they must leave before their I-94 expires. The I-134 is not legally binding, so if someone enters on a K-1, and then doesn't marry and takes off somewhere else refusing to leave the US, the USC petitioner will not be responsible. The I-864 that is filed after marriage when applying for AOS is the affidavit of support that is legally binding.
