Just to be on the safe side.. use 125%.

Some embassy's in some countries accept the 100% like mine (the UK) Manila doesn't it's the full amount

If it's that big of an issue, i.e. the person makes 100% but not 125% you will want a co-sponsor. Manilla is notarious for not permitting co-sponsors unless there is good reason, such as a recent graduate with good job prospects. Even it it's only 100% you will need 125% to AOS. Either a co-sponsor or a second job.

can someone hep me how many percentage is the income requirement for fiancee visa? ive read its only 100 percent which is around 15k. but some would say 120%. according to one of my sources, the 120% applies only to i-864 form and during the sdjustment of status. can someone help me on this pretty please

For the embassy in Manila the number is 125% with the K-1 visa. (don't listen to some that say 120%... that is a )

For income requirements refer to the I-864P 125% column.
