The Information Required for Affidavit of Support (I-134 form) by DV Winners

The winners of DV 2020 were clearly told that any DV winner must bring the Affidavit of Support (I-134) form from the sponsor during the interview. But with the US government rescinded the public charge in 2021, there are no clear guidelines on its essentiality. The winners of DV 2021, whose interviews were postponed, have already been posted a blog about what kind of email the embassy sent them for re-interviews. The applicants were instructed to bring a welcome letter and a recent tax return file from the sponsor to the embassy during the interview.

Therefore, it is unclear whether such an I-134 form from a sponsor is essential or not for each DV winner. However, there is no doubt that the DV winner will benefit from this I-134 form during the interview on behalf of the sponsor. Therefore, I would like to give special suggestions for your preparation to get the I-134 form from your sponsor.

In some cases, when you ask your sponsor for that I-134 form, they may not be knowledgeable about what information is needed and how to fill up the I-134 Form. So what kind of information is required from the sponsor for this I-134 form, based on which you can fill-up the form yourself and get the sponsor to sign only. But it is very important to make sure that the correct information of the sponsor is mentioned in the form.
