Good day VO. Happy New Year. My question is on filling out I-134 for K1 visa, specifically the annual income part on no.7. My fiance started his current job last November 2014 and at the same time is getting paid on oil and gas royalties. The payment he receives for royalties is not fixed. What amount should we put for his annual income? I understand for the salary it should be the current one and not the one on his 2013 income tax return. What about for the oil and gas royalties? Can we put the amount on his 2013 income tax return or from the stubs he received in 2014, but he doesn't have all the stubs in hand for 2014 yet. Thank you so much for answering our queries.

VisaOfficer:


I'd go for the current salary, with a letter from the new employer to back it up.

Follow up question: Are oil royalties considered income or asset?

Thank you.

Hi VO, I'd like to inquire on filling out the form I-134 correctly for I-129F petition. My fiancé just started on a new job this month. On #7 on the I-134, for "I derive an annual income of:", we've read that the amount we should put there is the amount on line 22 from his Form 1040 for 2013. But the figure written there was from his past job. We're confused in filling out the said form, should we write his current salary from his new job or the one on his 2013 1040? Thank you.
