Hello,

 

I am currently preparing Form I-134 for my fiancé’s upcoming K-1 visa interview in Jamaica and would appreciate your guidance regarding financial eligibility.

 

My household size is three, including myself, my minor child, and my fiancé. On my 2025 tax return, my adjusted gross income (AGI) was $23,696, which I understand may be below the recommended threshold for a household of this size. However, this figure does not reflect my current earning capacity.

 

I currently hold two positions. My primary job provides an annual salary of $85,000, and my secondary job pays $33 per hour at approximately 40 hours per week. I began my primary position mid-year in 2025 following maternity leave after the birth of my child in late 2024, which contributed to the lower reported AGI.

 

As of February 2026, I have been out of work due to a job-related injury and am currently receiving workers’ compensation benefits. I remain employed and expect to return to work once medically cleared.

 

Given these circumstances, could you advise on the best way to demonstrate sufficient financial support for purposes of the I-134, particularly when prior tax returns do not accurately reflect current income? Additionally, please let me know what supporting documentation you would recommend submitting in this situation.

 

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Joint Sponsor would be the most secure and safest option.

 

The I 134 is no biggie, some Consulates are very lax about it as it is not binding, now the I 864 is and that is the one you need to be set up for. I do not know how Kingston? look at the I 134.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
