Hi,
I have received my 2NL letter today, but the instructions doesn't talks about a form of I-134, so do we get separate letter as such or not need , and also i can see for people who receives their visa on or before 1st of Feb 2013 , they have to pay a fees of USCIS immigrant fee ?
any idea on this

Please refer the below link. DV Checklist for 2013. Under Documents necessary ONLY for DV Winner you can find informations about I-134 form.

Yes I guess you need to pay new immigrant fee. Please contact the embassy and ask.

Hi perera,
I have got a sponsor from USA who was send me completed affidavit of support (i-134) form with 1040 form which is the U.S INDIVIDUAL INCOME TEX RETURN from Department of treasury, actually my sponsor is SELF EMPLOYEE, i would like to know that could i bring this 1040 form insteed of W2 to the interveiw????? is it acceptable??? please reply soon. thanking you
 
My Sponsor also self employee. He gave me 1099 form.
I submitted 1099 form instead of w2 form. They accepted mine. I guess you can submit 1040 form if sponsor doesn't have w2 form.
Only thing is what ever amount declared in i-134 form, should match with 1040 form.

Hi friends,
I hope everyone is doing well. I have a question regarding the expiry date of police report. I have been in four countries (Including Sri Lanka). I have applied for police reports in all four countries, I have already got all of them (including the country currently where I live). I left Sri Lanka in 1989. In this situation, Will US Embassy still consider the expiry date of Sri Lankan police report? Because I have not been living in Sri Lanka last 23 years. I believe the expiry date of police report is applicable (should be considered) for the current country where I live.

Please advice.

Thanks

Hi Perera,
I have faced my interview on last Tuesday and everything were fine except Affidavit of support form (i-134), actually i have bring all the necessary required documents to the interview including i-134 form but unfortunately consular officer (Chinese male) did not accept it because he told me that "your sponsor's annual income (16000 $ - Self Employee) is very low to sponsor you, so that bring a new i-134 form and 2011 W2 with a sponsor's minimum annual income about 25000 $ " and finally he gave me a white paper with mentioned new i-134 form with 2011 W2 as well as he has told again to submit it to security post of US embassy along one of the working days.
Now, I have found a new sponsor and he has sent me scanned copies of new i-134 form, 2011 W2 and his US passport. my new sponsor's annual income is about 50000 $ so that i think this time consular officer will accept it.

Now my query is, how long it will take to issue visa after submit those missing documents???, how they would inform me to collect the visa?

Before you submit it.........

I wonder whether they will accept scanned copies, you can try and see.

Also, take a look at his i-134, does the details in W2 and i-134 match?
Usually, W2 Box 1 income is not necessarily his total income (box 2+ box12 is close to gross).

Has he given his family size in i134? if so you need to see whether his income meets i-864P limits.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf for this, Total Household sz = sponsor family sz+ Applicant (you+any?) family sz
(this was the reason your earlier one was rejected, for 2 ppl income limit is >18k)

If numbers are tight, ask him for his TOTAL (gross) income, if that number is not in W2, ask him to send a copy of his latest pay slip showing gross income. (Dec 2012 slip would do)

If W2 Box 1 say near 50k, that will be more than enough for total of family sz 8!, so no point asking for more details.
But, I hope others will learn from this how to evaluate i864P Vs i134 Vs W2.

They most probably will contact him by phone as well to confirm details.

If everything is ok, after you give this I don't think it will take more than 2 weeks for them to call you to collect visa.

Hope this helps.

Best!

PS: I am not certain whether i864P limit is the 'adjusted gross income' (AGI) used for tax purposes. If then it is closer to Box 1 in W2.

Thanks Nuvf for your use full tips,
yes, i agree with you that Total Household sz = sponsor family sz+ Applicant (you+any?) family sz, actually we both me and my wife together have faced the interview and also my sponsor is married and he have two kids as well therefore total house hold size is 6 so that consular officer advice to bring new i-134 form and 2011 W2 with the minimum anual income of sponsor 25000 $ ( Not rejected)
I have previously as well submit same scan copy so i think scan copy will not a issue.
but one issue is now, my new sponsor's address is not same in both i-134 form and W2, i think W2 is little bit older(2011) so he mentioned his current address on i-134 and previous on w2, is these a problem to further process?

thanks

sujath,

I don't think address will be a problem. But his name and social security no. should match.
Dbl chk everything and submit it by Tuesday.
I hope he will not ask for 2012 W2 which people are getting these days. If asked say it not rcvd yet.
But ask your friend how different is his 2012 w2 (if he has it already), if its income also ok , ask him for a copy of it and keep, just in case.

Best!

btw, CO has asked for a $25k w2 income assuming the sponsor is single, so the family sz will be 3. If sponsor has kids the limit will be different. Others who are reading this should be aware of this fact.
