I-134 Questions!!!! Please Help

[Throwaway777 0]

Hi all,

 

I will try to be succinct here. My fiancee (South Korean) will be interviewing in two weeks for her K1 visa, and I am trying to prepare the I-134 and supporting documents to send to her. I graduated from university last year and I am now working as a research fellow. I earn about 30,000/year in my current position, but because I only started at my current job in the summer of last year, my tax returns only reflect less than half of my gross income. I intend on providing a letter from my employer and last year's tax return with a letter describing my particular situation. My questions are as follows:

 

1. Although my income is over 125% of the poverty level, do I need a co-sponsor? I really would prefer not to have a co-sponsor as the only potential co-sponsor would be my mother, and trying to get financial documents out of her in a timely manner is quite difficult.

 

2. Should I not need a co-sponsor, will my tax transcript and letter from my employer be sufficient support to go along with the I-134?

 

Please advise!

You can only provide what you have.  I would go forward with that.   If you want to arm your fiancee and have access to a cosponsor, provide her that documentation but have her hold it in her back pocket and present only if needed.
