Quick (dumb) question about London and I-134

[psho 0]

If this needs to be moved, that's fine, but I was just wondering why I need 3 notarized copies of the I-134? I think I read that in one of the guides here, but it doesn't say why, and I've not seen anything else about 3 notarized copies. Having 3 copies isn't mentioned in my Nolo press book. either.

Does the London Embassy need this? Is this to have it for AOS?

I don't recall seeing that. I only had 1 notorized copy (and then a photocopy of that). They took the notorized copy from Chas.

At AOS, you use the I 864 (or I 864 EZ), which no longer has to be notorized.

Phew. Thanks! That's what I thought.

I read that weird tidbit in the "Tips" section:

When you fill out the I-134, fill out the one form, then you can duplicate it to make two copies more, and

sign all 3 in the presence of the notary, that way you end up with 3 certified copies (you can copy this

form, it says so on the instructions.) and you only have to fill it out once.

Well color me silly for not remembering that!

Obviously there's no harm in it, but I just don't see the point, particularly if all I'd want a copy for is my own reference (in which case a photocopy does just fine).

Well, I don't want to spend money I don't need to -- so I'm glad I just need the one bit notarized!

Thanks, Tracy!

No problem!

But please tell me you're not being charged to have something notorized!!!

Oooh -- good idea -- I should go to my bank.

My bank refused saying they only notarize bank documents or documents required for some bank related purpose - ie: mortgages/loans whatevs.

Every other place was $10, so in the greater scheme of things, a cheap portion of the process.

I just got back from BofA, and that's what they told me, too.

Grrr.

How odd.

We have several at my office, so that's where I found mine. Maybe if you know anyone in the real estate biz, they'd have one at their office that they'd let you use. Otherwise, $10 or so isn't that bad.

We have a notary on staff, but since this involves salary etc., I'd rather not share with the office.

I'm just annoyed at my bank. Grr. Grr. Grr.

One more dopey notary-type question:

What else needs to be notarized? I have my tax transcripts, and my last tax return (although that's duplicated in the tax transcripts). Anything else?

[TracyTN 237]

Nope, just the I 134.
