Question about Co-sponsor and the i-134

[Momboman177 10]

Hello! Recently our i-129f petition got approved and I am patiently waiting for the NOA2 in the mail. I've encountered a question I knew would come up eventually. I submitted our petition while I and my fiancée were employed in Japan, so I listed my dad as a co-sponsor as I obviously didn't have a job in the US at the time and I don't have assets equal to what the USCIS requires . Since I've returned this past April, I have found a job that is above the minimun income requirement, so do I still need to incorporate my dad in the i-134? We do plan on living with my parents temporarily upon my fiance's arrival, but I will be supporting her financially. If there's no downside to including him that's fine, but I'm not exaclty how to navigate the form if I were to include him and me on it. Thanks!

I doesn't hurt to have a co-sponsor.

1. If you are waiting  on NOA2, why have you submitted I-134? 

 

2. To whom did  you submit I-134?

 

See https://www.visajourney.com/guides/k1-fiance-visa/ for a description of the process.

I haven't submitted the i-134, I'm just looking ahead at the next steps because our petition was approved and I wanted to get ahead of my concerns so I know how to fill out the i-134 properly when the time comes.

AFAIK, , each  sponsor fills out their own I-134. If you have  enough income, your benefiscry will just need you to fill out and sign an   I-134. The visa application will be simpler if there is just one sponsor. Sone consulates don’t accept joint sponsors for I-134. 
 

Looking ahead:

 

* Will  you earn  enough for I-864 after your fiancée is in the U.S. and you are married?

 

* Have you filed your 2021 income tax  return with the IRS?
