AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT I-134 CLARIFICATIONS: Please Respond

In item # 1, following details are asked " If you are not a native born United States citizen, answer the following as appropriate"

a. If a Unites States citizen through naturalization, give certificate of naturalization number ----------------
b. If a United States citizen through parent(s) or marriage, give citizenship certificate number ---------------
c. If United States citizenship was derived by some other method, attach a statement of explanation.
d. If a lawfully admitted permanent resident ofthe United States, give "A" number ---------------"

I am thinking of answering as 'none' to item a and c, but wondering what should I answer to item d, as I have "A" number ?

In item # 3, following details are asked " Name of spouse and children accompanying or following to join person". That is details of spouse and children accompanying the person for whom the affidavit of support is being provided.

My question is, if I am executing the affidavit of support (AoS) for my spouse, then should I provide details of myself (spouse of person for whom the AoS is being executed), plus my two childrens?

In item # 8, following details are asked " Following persons are dependent upon me for support, wholly dependent, partially depenent etc"

Wondering as both, spouse and myself are employed, should I indicate my spouse and children are wholly dependent or partially dependent?

In item # 10, following details are asked "That I have submitted visa petition(s) to the INS on behalf of the following person(s)"

What should I answer here?

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

{Item a: -none-
b: -none-
c: -none-
d: -none- : H1B Visa holder }

In item # 3, following details are asked " Name of spouse and children accompanying or following to join person". That is details of spouse and children accompanying the person for whom the affidavit of support is being provided.

{On your wife's affidavit you can name your children. On your
kid's I-134s' it remains blank or put -none- }

My question is, if I am executing the affidavit of support (AoS) for my spouse, then should I provide details of myself (spouse of person for whom the AoS is being executed), plus my two childrens?

{There is no fixed formula. You may mention your wife being
50% dependent and children as 100%}

In item # 10, following details are asked "That I have submitted visa petition(s) to the INS on behalf of the following person(s)"

{Mention the names of parents or anyone for whom you
have earlier provided the I-134}

What should I answer here?

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Hi Raju595,

My attorney printed out the AOS form and sent it to me. The two forms- one for my wife and one for my daughter- both have been executed for my wife, and the name of the children accompanying has my daughter's name in both the forms.(Item 3)

I did bring this to my attorney's notice, but he said it is fine as both names appear in item 3 on both forms.

Secondly, do you have to put NONE in item 1 or just leave them blank for the following details as they dont apply to me.

a. If a Unites States citizen through naturalization, give certificate of naturalization number ----------------
b. If a United States citizen through parent(s) or marriage, give citizenship certificate number ---------------
c. If United States citizenship was derived by some other method, attach a statement of explanation.
d. If a lawfully admitted permanent resident ofthe United States, give "A" number ---------------"

My attorney has sent me the form leaving all of them blank.

Thanks in advance for any advise.

Answer: In my opinion, on your wife's affidavit can put your daughter's name. And on your daughter's I-134s' it should remain blank or write the words 'Not applicable'!

Secondly, do you have to put NONE in item 1 or just leave them blank for the following details as they dont apply to me.
Answer: For my wife's affidavit, I have filled point 1 and then put a dash/ Not Applicable in those blanks for a, b, c d!
 
I-134

By looking at the postings, I guess we have to submit seperate
I-134's for each of the accompanying persons.

What happens if your daughter is a U.S. citizen? Do we still have to submit two I-134 forms (one for my wife and the other for my daughter) ?

Please respond.

You do not have to provide a I-134 for your US born daughter.

singarb:

as raju mentioned you do not need I-134 for your US born daughter but at the same time for the interview you will need to carry your US born daughter's birth certificate and / or US passport which is bascially a proof that she is a usa citizen and does not need GC.
