I just have a quick question.  I'm applied for a k1 visa for my fiancee to enter the United States.  My income doesn't meet the requirements.  My parents are my cosponsor and filling out the affidavit i-134.  Do I still need to fill out my own affidavit and give out my information like my tax returns from last year and how much I'm making even though I'm not making enough?  Thank you.

Yes

Where is the consulate where your fiancee will do her interview? If in the Philippines they will require 2 or 3 years tax returns,  a Letter head proof of employment and 2 to 3 recent pay stubs at the time of the interview along with the I-134 form. No need to fill out the form till AFTER u are approved from USCIS. The problem could be depending on how short you are financially they will not accept a co-sponsor on a fiancee visa only on the adjustment of status after you both are married can u get a co-sponsor.  Depending on when u have your approval and interview try to find extra work or maybe if you have assets that  will help as well financially.

While one should always be prepared with a completed I-134 + all supporting evidence, Manila almost never asks for an I-134 anymore. They (mostly) stopped this a few years ago. They will only accept co-sponsors on a case by case basis (i.e. a close family member may be sufficient for the CO). Manila COs generally don't look at assets for the I-134, in the rare event they require the I-134 at all.

 

All this goes out the door with the I-864 9for an immigrant visa or AOS), where a joint sponsor is accepted, and assets can be utilized (but must be at a 3x level for a spouse).
