Hi, I am a UKC married to my wife(USC). We married in the UK November of 2000 and have sinced lived in the UK. We now want to move back to the US.

I filed an I-130 which was approved. We sent off the DS-230 Part I & IF-169 to the US Embassy (london).

Except for 3 months my wife has not worked in the UK. This means she wont be above the poverty line and able to support me in the US's eyes. I am worried that this will stop us getting the Visa.

Her sister (USC) has agreed to act as co-sponsor. she more than meets the criteria (USC, lives in Ohio, full time job, has all tax returns, w2's etc)

I have a job with a US IT company here in the UK. I have been with them for 2 and a half years). They may offer me a position in the US. Can I use this to help our case? and if so how? from my understanding I (as the alien) cannot file an affidavit of support for myself. How can I used this job transfer to aid our case? Is there a form I can fill in? Do I need to bring some documentary evidence to the interview ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Darren

It is of my understanding that your co-sponsor will be of no problem to you, and when you enter the US on the 130 ou are allowed to work and a letter from your employer to state you have a job in the states will of course help your situation, but you will probably need your co-sponsor, even if you are actually going to take care of your own responsibiltys.
Good Luck

Hi Darren, I am a USC, and my husband is a UKC.My parents were my co-sponsors, as I only worked part-time, and had never filed taxes.They had to send in 3 years tax returns, and I sent a letter saying because I only earned a certain amount, I was not required to file a tax return. We've been married a little over 3 years now, and just had the conditions removed. Good luck to you!
