I am the sponsor and my parents the co sponsor. So neither of us need to fill out any of that?

Here is the deal. If you make more than the poverty level then you just need to complete the I-134 plus submit the following.

 

EVIDENCE OF SUPPORT. You should be able to demonstrate that you will not become a public charge or be a burden on the U.S. taxpayers for financial support. A completed I-134 Affidavit of Support Form K1/K2 Interview Preparation Instructions – English (February 2014)  Page 3 of 9 with an original signature will be useful to the consular officer to evaluate your petitioner’s ability to be financially responsible for you. You should also submit your petitioner’s most recent U.S. Federal income tax return (Form 1040) and wage statements (Form W-2). Employment letters stating salaries and bank statements may be included to substantiate the I-134.

 

If you need a co-sponsor then this should help explain in more detail what needs to be completed.

 

Fiancé Visa Income Requirements

 

Before any fiancé can receive a K1 visa, the U.S. citizen petitioner must disclose his or her financial situation to the immigration authorities. The reason for this is to show that the petitioner earns enough money to support the immigrating fiancé and to prevent him or her from becoming a public charge (receiving welfare).

 

The U.S. citizen petitioner must fill out a USCIS form called an Affidavit of Support. There are two versions of this form I-134 and I-864. Sponsors of fiancés use Form I-134 and later when the immigrating fiancé applies for a green card Form I-864 is used. By filling out this form the U.S. citizen petitioner becomes what is known as a sponsor. If the U.S. citizen petitioner doesn’t meet the minimum income requirements additional people can serve as financial sponsors.

 

The minimum financial requirements for Affidavits of Support are determined by the U.S. government’s Poverty Guidelines chart, found below and on USCIS Form I-864P.

Green card applicants must show that their sponsor can support them at 125% of the Poverty Guidelines.

 

On the other hand, fiancé visa applicants only need to show that their sponsor can support them at 100% of the Poverty Guidelines. However, some consular officers are very strict when processing fiancé visas, and consider the 125% level that will be required a few months later when the immigrating fiancé applies for a green card.

 

How to Read the Poverty Guidelines Chart

The sponsor’s income must be enough to support the people who depend financially on the sponsor (dependents). To determine the dependents who must be included add up the following:

• the sponsor
• the currently immigrating fiancé and any immigrating children
• any other immigrants the sponsor has sponsored in the past, and
• all family members listed as dependents on the sponsor’s tax return.

 

Once you have determined the number of dependents, refer to the Poverty Guidelines charts below to determine the minimum financial requirements for a K1 fiancé visa.

I also make more right now than I did last year. Is it ok for me to put the total from my w2 last year and also send in pay stubs? See my other reply.

 

Part 3 section 38. What do I check here? What do I put for information about this?

In the new revised I-134 form dated 11/30/2018 - Question #38 now regards contributions.  You leave the yes/no boxes "unchecked" and your explanation is submitted in Part 7 on page 8 of the new form.  

 

You will do this:

3.a. "Page 4"

3.b. "Part Number 3"

3.c. "Item Number 38"

3.d. "N/A (K1 Visa Process For Permanent Residence)"

I am filling out an i134 and my parents are filling out one also. They are sending me their w2 for the past 2 years and a letter from my Dads work. I am going to sending a letter from my bank and a letter from work. Will this be enough?
