Does I-134 bank statement need to be signed by bank?

[jc1 0]

The instructions for the I-134 state that they want a "Statement from an officer of the bank or other financial instititutions with deposits, identifying the following details..."

The letter I obtained from my bank is not from "an officer of the bank", but rather it's just a letter on bank stationary containing the information. Is this ok, or should it be signed by someone from the bank?

I got the same thing. I think as long as it is on bank's letterhead should be fine. Some consulates don't even look at that letter.

Bank letter is not really even required for the K-1, so it doesn't matter. Typically you need the I-134, most recent tax return/transcript, letter from employer and/or recent pay stubs. If you need to use assets that are through a bank, then you can usually use bank statements, though a letter from the bank too. You just need to prove ownership and value of assets.

No bank statement do not need to signed/notarized or anything else (in fact they are optional, only the most recent tax return and W-2 are required). Follow the embassy instructions letter, for details on the K-1 in Manila follow the flashing arrow below
