I-134 Income question

Hello from U.S.A.!

I have recently sent my I-129f and it is now in process after receiving my NOA1. 

It will just be my fiancee (from Philippines) and I, and I make well above the guidelines for 2 individuals set in place from the U.S. Government, as well a large amount that can entered in stocks and bonds category.

 

Aside from the annual earnings, how much does the the embassy favor to see in terms of checking and savings?

They are interested in income and income only 

YMMV

Manila rarely asks for the I-134 (but have it ready in case they do).

Manila COs go by the 125% income level.

Assets are not generally considered by Manila COs.

Embassy in Manila listes the I-134 (can be a signed copy), most recent tax return and W-2 .  That's it.        No bank statements, no assets necessary.   If not a new employee .. no employer letter either.    The embassy uses the 125% guideline.

 

As was noted many times the CO does not ask for the support evidence, which really means little IF you are the one they do ask.   Be prepared

 

You have a little time before moving to the next stage, but I will list them here for future reference.

 

After you receive your NOA2 (approval notice) you will want to email NVC to request your embassy case file number, info here;

Once you have your case file number from NVC and your status on CEAC shows READY you can then start the process at the embassy;

The Philippines forum is a good place to get answers related to the visa application process in Manila;
