What type of financial support documentation is needed?
For every month of study at ILI, you or your sponsor must show proof of financial support in the amount of $2,000 per month for your estimated expenses. If you are sponsoring yourself, please submit a bank statement in your name with the date the account was opened, present balance and date of the statement. The statement may not be older than 3 months.
If you have a sponsor residing outside the U.S., please submit a letter certifying that your sponsor will support you financially and your sponsor's bank statement. You may find it helpful to complete this generic sponsor letter.
If your sponsor is residing in the U.S. and a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, he/she will need to fill out an official I-134 Affidavit of Support. The Affidavit of Support form can be downloaded at http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-134.pdf.
All documents must be translated into English and the amounts shown in U.S. Dollars.
