Help PLEASE! I-134 information

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

Hello All:

I would appreciate our help please. We have our K-1 interview in 2 weeks. I am putting together the I-134.

Until late last year I was self employed and my income for last year (2007) qualifies for our family size (3 including me, fiancee and one son coming with her, one son will remain in Ukraine until next spring when he completes college), barely, but it does, at $26,650. Since September 2007 I am employed with a corporation and have employment letter verifying income now of $55,000+ and check stubs from this year verifying this.

I am buying my home on a lease/puchase and cannot give a deed or anything in my name at this time, I do not have bonds, stocks, etc. My life insurance is term insurance and has no cash value. Of course I have personal property which I can quantify as well as anyone. I also have health and dental insurance to cover my family (though they don't ask for that)

They also ask for savings amounts which is not much to speak of. I can show bank statements with deposits for the last year which exceed the minimum qualifications by a good amount. Is it necessary?

What do I need? Is the income enough in itself? I always get confused of this because the form asks to complete ALL items. Do I just put "none". What happens? Is it just a matter of the income qualifications? If so, no problem. Anyone with experience with the Kiev embassy that will pass it along is appreciated. By the way, I am going to the interview and will bring this information with me to give to my fiancee.

Also, I have been told (by other good members here) our family size is 3, even though she has two children but one will not be coming until next year, but the I-134 asks for "All children accompanying or following". Do I list both children? Both are listed on the DS-156. If I list both are we then a family of 4? (I would STILL qualify with last years income, but even by a closer amount) Should I list both children on this I-134? Sorry so many questions, but I would appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance

Gary
