Do I need to fill out an I-134?

[ibbibby]

Hi, I'm trying to bring my fiancee over from Japan. The petition was approved in the US and sent on to the embassy in Japan. The consulate sent my fiancee a packet of stuff for me to fill out, including DS-2000 and I-134 forms, before she can schedule her interview.

I filled out the DS-2000 form, and sent proof of my ability to support her financially, including several paychecks, a signed verification of my account balance from my bank, and a copy of the deed to my house.

However, I did *not* fill out the I-134 form. I was under the impression, from reading the instructions on the DS-2000 form, that it wasn't necessary to fill out an I-134 if I provided the DS-2000 with all that other stuff. However, now I've heard from several people that I *do* need the I-134 form after all. So which is it? My fiancee can schedule her interview as soon as I get this cleared up.

Affadavit of support is required for all submissions, your additional documents suffice but the form is required as part of the process.
Fill it out and have your finance take it with her to the interview.

Hello Ibbibby. First of all congratulations. Could you provide me a full list of documents which need to be filled out for embassy? Thank you in advance.
