Not really. Most consulates go by the I-864 guidelines and instructions, even when using the I-134. They require 125% because they know someone on a K-1 will need to AOS soon and need 125% then anyway.

No. If the RFE is for more proof of meeting in the last 2 years, the meeting must have happened in the 2 years BEFORE you filed the petition. You cannot send in proof of meeting together after the fact. The recent visit would be evidence for the consulate later at your visa interview to prove relationship. It will not work for the petition. The meetings face to face in person had to occur in the 2 years prior to filing your petition.

You are like a broken record with this. Over and over all the time with different(or sometimes the same) people. It has been stated time and time again that it does not matter what the travel gov site or the I-134 instructions say. It is up to the consulates and the individual interviewing officers as to what qualifies for financial sponsoring. I do not need to repeat it all here again, in yet another thread as it has all been said before several times now. You just won't let it quit or give it a rest, no matter how many times it stated to you. You know best because the travel.state.gov site and the I-134 instructions for a non-legally binding form that was meant for use by the USCIS for non-immigrants not intending on staying and adjusting status to permanent residence state. Good for you. You go and do that for your own immigration case, if you even have one pending at the moment. There is no need to repeat this continually to anyone asking about the I-134. Most of us are trying to provide the best answers to people here that will get them moving through the system and be approved in a timely manner so they can get on with their lives together as a married couple. I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish with all of this all the time. Seems to be getting rather troll-like now.

Sheesh, you should stop with Thomas70. He does this in literally every thread that comes up about the I-134/I-864 on here. He does not take into account that different embassies in different countries have different requirements. Instead, he'll just continue to copy and paste the same information from the I-134, which, unlike the I-864, is not legally binding (but don't mention that to him!) over and over again. He probably has a MS Word document at the ready to quickly bring up the text to paste into a thread.
Many people have had this "conversation" with him and he still goes on and on and on...
That's why whenever I see him post in a thread about support, I do this:

If it's denied because of an improperly completed I-693 then DO NOT REFILE! Instead, file a motion to reopen - I-290B. Being denied for improperly completed documentation is a perfect case for a motion to reopen. The advantages are:
1. It reopens your existing case, rather than starting a new one. You just need to provide the improperly completed documentation. Go to a civil surgeon that isn't a jerk and get the I-693 completed properly. Any civil surgeon who refused to give you a copy of the I-693 is a jerk - don't give them any money.
2. USCIS policy is to allow an EAD to be renewed or extended while the motion is being considered. Include another I-765 with the I-290B. Your husband should be able to continue working because it's a renewal/extension of his previous EAD, and not an application for a new one.
3. It costs a lot less - $630, as opposed to $1070 for a new application.
4. It's faster. You should have a decision within 90 days.
The downside - you only have 30 days to file the I-290B. If you get a denial notice then act quickly.

When you file for AOS, it will be the same requirement of 125% of the poverty level or more for your household size, but you will fill out the I-864 instead of the I-134. If you do not meet the 125%, you can use a co-sponsor. The I-134 is not legally binding, but the I-864 is, so your co-sponsor should read carefully as to what they are signing off on.

This may be how it is for Manila, but not all consulates are the same. For example, they do not give any shots for a K-1 applicant in Mexico. Also, for countries that do offer vaccinations for K-1 applicants, the fees for the vaccinations are extra and often pricey, and not included in the cost of the medical fee. People should be careful about giving consulate specific answers as blanket facts.
OP> I do not know how the medical and vaccinations work for the Dominican Republic. You should ask about the medical and vaccinations in the regional forum: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/153-caribbean/
Ask specifically about the Dominican Republic in your title.

PUBLIC CHARGE is not the only important information for an immigrant. There are "means tested benefits" (that are required to be paid back to the government by the sponsor) and things that make someone a "public charge" (ineligible for immigration benefits).
Your title asks about "means-tested public benefit" and Section 8 IS a means tested benefit, but it doesn't make you a public charge. Two different issues.

You are confusing "public charge" and "means tested benefits".
Someone who becomes a "public charge" isn't eligible for immigration benefits so you're right that Housing assistance won't affect their ability to AOS BUT it IS a means-tested benefit and if the immigrant uses it the sponsor will be required to pay back the government.
Here is info on the means tested benefits: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3183.html#4
So if the USC uses it it's not a problem for them as long as the immigrant isn't included in the process of getting it. If the immigrant uses it the sponsor will need to pay back what was used to the government.

Nothing, statements are not necessary and are low level secondary evidence. I never included any for any reason throughout the process, petition to citizenship. You may as well attach copies of magazine subscriptions in both names.
Why? well for one thing you are asking what they should write, so clearly you are creating this evidence yourself. Of course you are, that is what everyone does that uses these.
For the ptition you do not need ANY evidence of relationship at all. For the AOS and ROC they want to see evidience of mingled finances, joint responsibility and committment.
they are not needed for anything.

Fill them out in English for her, but make sure she knows what they say and what she will be signing.

Does this help? She needs to file a US tax return...meaning IRS Form 1040 and possibly other schedules if she earned interest money, even in the UK. So she reports any income she earned anywhere in the world on her 1040. Form 2555 is part of her tax return. She fills out Form 2555 to exclude her UK earnings. The exclusion will show up on Form 1040 as a minus number to subtract from what she reported earning in the lines above. If she ends up with zero adjusted gross income, then she owes zero US income tax. But she still mails off the 1040, 2555, and any other parts showing interest earned, to the IRS. That meets her requirement to file a tax return even though she doesn't owe any tax money.
It was all suggested early in this thread, but you probably aren't familiar with US tax returns. When people said filing taxes instead of tax return, maybe you were equating that with paying taxes. She is required to file a tax return if she earned any money, anywhere in the world. The form 2555 you sent in is not a complete tax return. It's not a stand alone document, but just one page of a tax return. Your two RFEs want to see the whole thing, most importantly a Form 1040, whether taxes were owed or not.

Right, you don't pay. The person making that comment was confused. CBP made an error. She never got a I-94. Go and get a free one. You are right, you didn't lose anything - she never got it. It's not her fault, but she does need that paper.

You have a lot of patience Jay-Kay

Your post has been moved to the AOS forum, so Hello! you are there now. Here is a link though: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/7-adjustment-of-status-green-card-from-family-based-visas/
Follow the guide here on VJ for AOS: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos
Vanessa&Tony also put together an excellent guide that lists what documents are needed for each form you will be sending. You can find that here: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/235331-aos-ead-ap-from-k1-the-aussie-way-doc-list-included/
Just keep in mind, you cannot edit a post past 5 minutes time, so she was not able to change the fee on that first post. It is talked about in later posts of that thread, but it would be nice to be able to edit important posts like that so old info can be updated and not confuse people. Anyway, the fee is $1070. Everything else listed there is spot on.

Ok, first of all, your mother would never check she is the petitioner, as she did not petition for your wife, you did. On your I-864, you check a. On her I-864, she checks d.
Second of all, you seem to be confusing the processes for the forms. It works one way if she fills out the I-864, and another way if she fills out the I-864A.
Let me try and break it all down...
If you are not her dependent, then you can do it either way. If she makes enough to cover herself, her dependents plus your wife, then she can fill out her own I-864. The I-864A is used for a household member to combine their income with yours in order to meet the 125% poverty level. If you wanted to combine your income with her income, then she would fill out the I-864A, and her income from that form would be entered on your I-864 and added together with your income. How you want to do it is entirely up to you, as I said earlier in this thread.
I-864A route:
IF you decide to combine your incomes, she fills out the I-864A. There is a section on the form where you have to print your name and sign off on it too, as I answered about in another thread you made. IF she fills out the I-864A, then you would list her on your I-864 in #24 b. Take the total from a. and b. and put that in the box for c. You would then check d., as she would indeed be filling out an I-864A.
I-864 route:
IF you decide to skip the I-864A and have your mom fill out her own separate I-864 (which I suggest you do since you seem to be having a hard time understanding how it works with the I-864A), Then you mother would check d. in part 1 for being the only joint sponsor, and as I stated above, you check a. in part 1 on your I-864 because you were the one that petitioned for your wife and are the primary sponsor no matter how much you make.
Part 2 will be filled out the same for both of you with your wife's information. You will both check the box in part 3 #8, and check the Yes box under it. Do not check off anything for #9, and put 'None' in the first blank for a. there. In #10, you and your mother will both put a 1 there, which is the only intending immigrant you are sponsoring, your wife.
Part 4 will be your personal information on your I-864 and your mother's personal information on her I-864. Part 5, you and your mother will each total up your household sizes. For your I-864, do not put a 1 in a c. Your wife is counted in a. and you do not count her twice. If your mother is married, she would put a 1 in c. on her I-864, otherwise she puts a 0 too.
Part 6 you will each list your employment info and income. When your mother is using the I-864, both of you will put 'None' on the first line of #24 b. You will not be combing incomes, as no one is filling out the I-864A. #25 for each of you, list your income from previous tax returns. If you did not file taxes for any of the previous 3 years, then include a statement as to why you did not legally have to file taxes that year.
Part 7 is to list your assets you would like to use in order to reach the 125% level. If your mother has enough income to qualify as the joint sponsor already, then no need to list assets. Skip that part and leave it blank.
Part 8, make sure you read and understand what you are signing, print your name on #30 and then sign and date on #31.
You each need to provide a tax transcript(or complete copy of return with W-2s and 1099s), letter from employer stating position and salary, and a few months worth of your most recent pay stubs. Your mother also needs to include proof of being a US citizen or permanent resident.
Please look over the example form to help you understand how to fill out the form better: http://www.visajourney.com/examples/INS-Form-I-864.pdf

You can divorce her any time you like and tell her to get out of your home and never talk to you again except through a lawyer. Deporting her (for just cause or otherwise) is not up to you. You cannot 'GET' anybody deported. All you can do is report them to Immigration if there is a good reason to believe that they only married you for the green card.

Keep the forms and supporting evidence separate, but mail them altogether in one envelope to the USCIS. You can separate them with paperclips. If you make a complete copy of your AOS packet, then go ahead and copy everything you are sending, including the check. Only send a copy of your certified marriage certificate and not the actual one you received from the court. And yes, it is C (9).
Vanessa&Tony's AOS guide lists everything needed, and shows what you need for each application: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/235331-aos-ead-ap-from-k1-the-aussie-way-doc-list-included/

It is not required, but it is free to file along with the I-485 and the form is pretty simple to fill out. In part 3, you can put 'Unknown' and 'To be determined' for your travel dates, since you do not have any set and are only wanting it in case of emergency. Then, skip to part 7 and check for more than one trip. No need to fill out a statement explaining why you want the AP. That is not required for a K-1. http://www.visajourney.com/examples/INS-Form-I-131.pdf

That is for filing taxes with the IRS. That states it is not taxable income. Child support is income and be used for the affidavit of support.
OP> If you do not receive alimony anymore, then no, you cannot include it in your income total.
