On the I134 form, there are several sentences (question #7)that ask for asset amounts
in banks, personal property, stocks & bonds, life insurance, and real estate.
Assuming I make more than enough to "cover" the 125% of the poverty line level ( as
evidenced by the letter from Employer) should I go ahead and document EACH of my
stocks/mutual funds, personal property (own cars, motorcycles, coin collections
etc..), etc...AND attach to the I134 that I send to my Fiancee to take to her
interview at the US Embassy? Would this additional evidence seem more "compelling",
or is it just "overkill" to do that??
If I DO declare these assets, MUST I attach an itemized list, or can I "estimate" and
just write the figure into the space provided?I'm not sure I want the INS knowing
about all my personal assets.........
And, lastly--the last phrase "I own real estate valued at.... " with mortgages
thereon amounting to:.....
Do I give the appraised value of my home in today's market?
And, do they want the outstanding amount of the mortgage if paid off in FULL
today? Or, the total amount of the mortgage that WILL be paid over the entire 30
year period??
Sorry to be so "anal" but I want it to be as correct as possible.

It's just overkill. In addition, if you are not self employed, you don't have to
submit 1040s at the interview. They'll probably ask for them, but just say that you
don't have to submit them as you are not self employed.

Each consulate has their own procedure and requirements for the I-134 and the
supporting documents.
If they ask for tax returns.....you provide them.

I attached a letter from my financial advisor and the entire brokerage statement (I
keep 95% of my cash/stock/bonds with the same firm) so that part was easy for
me...yes they are interested in your asset base...it is pretty nosey but I woud give
them everything you've got...and make sure the dates on your records are fairly
current when you submitt them...best wishes...
