Meidon Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Ok as you all know my SO will be interviewing fairly soon (11/14/05). I have been told all I need to put down for financial proof is my salary (it is above the %125 and then some ) I heard it just makes it easier not to clutter up the i-134 form with info that you need not provide. this is true right? Also my SO has additional financial information of mine but it is not entered on the i-134 form. So if the VO asks that he needs to see more financial info she could show him a savings account statement and 401k statement....Could you consider this kitchen sink even though i dont have this additional information on the i-134 form?

tywy_99 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 You might want to inlude a copy of the latest year tax return with your I-134.Also include a copy of your proof of employment on company letterhead from your employer.That has always been the popular consensus in the past to include with the I-134. Those two things attached to your I-134, you'll be in good shape. Link to comment

Just wonder if any of the other info like savings account and or 401k is needed. Link to comment
tywy_99 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Not needed just as long as you meet or are above the poverty line. Link to comment
Randy W Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) My approach is to provide everything called for on the form - the letterhead, paycheck stubs, and tax return indicate employment and steady income. I also included recipts for the house payment, brokerage statements, and bank statements (and letterhead). The 401K stuff, I believe, is not asked for, but, of course, could be tossed in. I believe you have these things available just in case the VO asks for them. Edited October 20, 2005 by Randy W (see edit history) Link to comment
LeeFisher3 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 If you're income exceeds the 125% level you have exceeded the requirements. The I-134 asks for your latest tax return and employer letter to validate this. The more complex you make your presentation of the facts the larger the opportunity of opening questions you have not prepared to answer in the 2-5 minute interview. Sure, have it available, but I don't recall hearing of a denial based on this recently and most of the reports back have said the employer letter and about half have acutally requested the I-134.

tywy_99 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 It all boils down to where one's comfort zone lies. But it is a good thing to get different answers, ideas and opinions from members on questions. That's what makes this site so great! Even the GUZ has joined us!... Oh! an idea!.....How 'bout "Comfort Zone" for the new name for the PC? Look!, I onley said it was an idea!........ Link to comment

If income alone easily fulfills the requirement, what is there to question? Link to comment
