Affidavit of Support.. I-134 / I-864??

[stephelliott 5]

Hi all,

So I'm just reading the VJ "What to send to your fiancé(e) once the I-129F is approved (Receive NOA2)" and of course it says U.S Fiancé has to send a completed Form I-134 Affidavit of Support (along with any supporting evidence and co-sponsor forms). From there I am now looking at Affidavit FAQ here : http://www.visajourney.com/content/support and it mentions a Form I-864, which is the "Affidavit of Support Under Section 213A of the Act", which is "to show that an intending immigrant has adequate means of financial support and is not likely to become a public charge."

What are the differences between the two forms?

I see Form I-864 says "family-based immigrants", so this does not apply to fiancé?

Are there any circumstances where the both of these forms need to be submitted?

(I will be needing a co-sponsor for our affidavit, since I have been living outside of the U.S for over 2 years in my fiance's country, and also haven't worked in the U.S since I had been a full time college student prior to moving overseas.)

Thanks in advance.

I-134 for fiance visa

I-864 for your adjustment of status later on after getting married
