If you’re sponsoring someone for a U.S. visa in 2025, you may need to submit Form I-134, Affidavit of Support — and providing the right financial evidence is critical for approval. Many applications are delayed or denied simply because the sponsor did not submit enough proof of income or assets.
In this episode, we answer the most common questions about the I-134 financial requirements, including how much income you need, what counts as acceptable proof, and how to handle situations where your income alone may not be enough.
You’ll learn:
The difference between Form I-134 and Form I-864
Minimum income requirements based on Federal Poverty Guidelines
Acceptable documents (pay stubs, tax returns, bank statements, asset proof)
How to combine income with a household member or joint sponsor
Common mistakes that lead to I-134 rejections
How financial evidence is evaluated for different visa types (K-1 fiancé, tourist, humanitarian cases)
We’ll also share insider tips to help your affidavit look stronger and reduce the chances of additional document requests from USCIS or the consulate.
Whether you’re sponsoring a fiancé, relative, or visitor, this guide will give you clear answers and practical advice to navigate the financial evidence process with confidence.
