Your wife's financial papers are also needed. The father in-law can only be a co-sponsor. If you'r using an I-134 for her father, you need one from her too. You do not submit them. You turn them over if and when asked for them.

I thought it was different for a non-immigrant visa and the I-134? And then when they adjust status, the wife has to be the sponsor and the father-in-law co-sponsor on the I-864. Or is that since they will eventually have to adjust status on the K3 or complete the I-130, the interviewer might ask now for his wife's financial documents?

K visas are adjudicated by immigrant visa units because they have immigrant intent. The PI, for instance, won't accept any sponsor but the USC Fiance as sole sponsor. No co-sponsors are accepted. There may be a Consulate out there accepting somebody other than the Fiance or Spouse as primary sponsor for K visas but I don't know of it.

Other non-immigrant visa applicants can be supported by any sponsor.

for K3 and K1, if there is a co (joint) sponsor, both the primary (spouse) sponsor and the joint sponsor have to complete the I-134 for the consular interview. And then again, they both must complete an I-864 for the AOS later.

Thanks for clearing that up. I must have read some misleading information somewhere.

Well, you have no timeline and you posted in the K3 visa forum, so we've been giving you information based on that.

Let's start over. You have an appointment for a CR1 interview? Please fill in your timeline.

If you're going for a CR1 interview, you must have your wife's documents, and she should be your main sponsor and the father-in-law should be the co-sponsor. The I-134 does not figure into the CR1 visa process. That's only for non-immigrant visas.

I should be more clear. No matter what, as pushbrk corrected me, with the K visas or with the CR1 visa, your wife must be the sponsor and your father-in-law is the co-sponsor. For a K3 both your spouse and father-in-law must fill out the I-134 and give you their financial documents. For the CR1, both of them must fill out the I-864 and give you their financial documents.

pushbrk,

There is no requirement that the petitioner must be the financial sponsor for a K visa applicant. The sponsor can be anyone who meets the financial requirements and who the consular officer believe will actually put out the money should it be required.

This has been reported multiple times, although recently somebody aluded to the possibility of making an exception. It is out of the ordinary.

Guangzhou, Consulate requires the fiance or spouse to provide financial information regardless of any additional sponsorship. If I-134's are used and they strongly suggest them, they require one from the fiance or spouse.

Nothing is binding before the I-864 is filed anyway. The Consulates want to see the financial picture of the spouse or intended spouse before granting a visa with immigrant intent, even if that person has no income or assets at the moment. (Students, etc.)

If somebody has direct evidence that contradicts the above, please provide it.
