QUESTION

Is co-sponsor allowed in k1 visa?

Asked on Sep 28th, 2012 on Immigration - California
More details to this question:
My fiancรฉ had an interview last week in Islamabad and everything went well but at last my fiancรฉ was told and put under section 212(a)(4) which says that my fiancรฉ is likely to become a public charge in USA because I don't work and looking for a job but we had a cosponsor (my mother) but they said cosponsor is not allowed in k1 visa but I have seen so many people have a cosponsor got approved at Islamabad embassy in Pakistan. Any help will be appreciated.

Yes, a joint sponsor is permitted if the petitioner's income is insufficient.

Only the I-134 is required at the K-1 stage. The co-sponsor can be used once he is here, you marry and want to adjust status. I would suggest locating a job and then submit that information with a new I-134 for you and one for your Mom.
