Ok...my fiance and I are waiting for a few last documents before we send in the IV15 checklist to the Embassy in London so that they may schedule an appointment. However, our problem is proving that he will not become a "public charge." I understand to do this in the most sufficient way is to have someone or yourself sponser your fiance by filing a affidavit of support but I do not believe I am in the position to do so. I am currently in England with my fiance and unemployed. I do not return to the states until this Monday (Nov 27th) and I'm running high on stress because I wont be here to help my fiance through the rest of the process. I do not own any property/stocks/bonds/etc I have only ever rented. Now saying that, I am trying to get a family member to sponser and do the I-134 form for him but there has not been any real feedback on whether my uncle or anyone else in my family who is better off than I am to do it.
I read somewhere that it should be the fiance that does the I-134 affidavit of support but as I said, I'm not in any position to do it and to depend on one from myself with a low bank statement and a employment that I have had for less than even a month definitely isnt going to work...and I'm wondering if anyone knows if it would be ok for my uncle to do one for me? Also, I was wondering if anyone has any tips further than what I have thought of that may help us prove to them that he wont become a charge of the public. He does not have prearranged employment and I don't know how they expect him to when he doesn't even have a work visa. However, when I return to the states I will have employment and I plan on getting a notarized statement from my employer stating my income and length of employment as well as a letter from me signed and notarized saying that I will help support him etc. On top of that, he is getting a reference letter from his current employer as well as his certifications in a computer course he took and is going to try and pitch to the immigration officers that he will be able to find employment once he is inside the states and legal to do so. On top of that, another thing I've thought of is getting his grandfathers ring valued that he has inherited before he died. Not to sell, because of its sentimental value, but to have valued by a proper company and call it his "investment" and explain to them that if ever he needs money he may sell it (it has 3 huge diamonds and is gold so it should be worth a pretty penny). Now does anyone think that would work good enough even without the affidavit? Because it is not guarunteed that my uncle will do it or any other family member....Or does anyone have any other ideas of things we could do to prove he wont become a public charge? Thank you so much to everyone who has read this post for your time...I know it is a lot to read. I would appreciate any comments or suggestions anyone has. PLEASE!!!
Thank you,
