will first affadavit of support affect second one?
i am sponsoring a second k-1 beneficiary.. will my sponorship of the first k-1 affect my affadavit of support? In other words do I need to qualify for three in the household instead of two? or how does that work??

Oh... did you get divorced from the first wife? You need proof of divorce before you can file an I-129F.

It depends on whether or not your first wife ever became a US PR. If she did, and still is one, then you need to claim her on the I-864 (and probably the I-134 as well), even though you are divorced. If your first wife never adjusted status, never got her green card, or has since become a USC or left the USA permanently, then you don't need to claim her.

Since you sponsored an immigrant in the past, and her I-864 has not been discharged (unless you found out that she left the US permanently), you will have to declare that (and count her) on the I-864.
I don't think that the I-134 has a provision for that, but the CO will know how recently you sponsored another fiancee from other parts of your paperwork, so he may account for that when adjudicating the visa app for this K-1.

Was the prior affidavit of support filed with you as a co-sponsor? Did the person later adjust? If so, are you on the I-864?
You are not clear on your posting.
WHO did you file the affidavits of support for? Are you talking just about the I-134 or the I-864? Did the prior person adjust?
Without that information, no one can begin to really answer your question -- we don't really know what the question is yet.
[To others in the forum -- "Sea_Dave" rings a bell in my head -- I have not looked up his history.]

Still not 100% clear whether the ex-wife abandoned her PR status or not. She ran off, but where is she now? If she stayed in the USA and is still a PR, he needs to include her.
If she left the USA permanently or is now a USC, he doesn't need to include her.

the last thing she had done was file for removal of conditions... I have no idea where she is or what her status is.. I would assume she is still in the usa, and she is probably a perm resident by now...
