Affidavit of Support

I am bringing my fiancé from abroad with K1 fiancé visa. The embassy has required me to show income proof that I can support him here.  I worked with the state over 10 years but still is hard to save money in the bank. What is going to happen to us if they say I have insufficient money in the bank? what other proof would satisfy my case in order for my fiancé to come.

 

Please Help meeee.. Thanks

Income is key.   Money in the bank is not

Current income is king:  Employment letters, Pay stubs, etc.

who exactly would write for "employment Letter" ?

 Also my current balance doesn't matter?

Would they want to know how much I got in there? Please help I am so worried about that. 

Thank you very much.

 

These are what I am concerned about

----Statement from an Officer of the bank or other financial institutions with deposits, identifying the following details regarding the account

*Date account opened

*Total amount deposited for the past year

*present balance

*date and nature of employment

*salary paid

*whether the position is temporary

*copy of last income tax return field

---Failure to provide evidence of sufficient income or financial resources may result in the denial of the foreign national's application for a visa or his or her removal from the United States

What interviewing consulate?

 

The best source of the information to include comes from the consulate itself not the USCIS instructions.  The consulates set there own policy and is not bound by some USCIS form.  

 

I have only ever submitted income and never assets or employment letters

Last year’s tax returns and bank statements / pay statements from Jan - Sept of this year should do nicely.

 

Make a cover letter summarizing each deposit by date and highlight those deposits on your bank statements.

 

That will thoroughly document last year’s and this year’s income to date.

Money in the bank isn't a requirement.   Gross income to meet the poverty guidelines IS a requirement.

Most recent tax return/transcript and W-2 are required normally.   Varies by embassy .   Check your embassy documents checklist for what they require.
