Our case is I-485(AOS) family-based, was submitted in June 2022 together with I-864 affidavit of support. The questions: my wife (the petitioner and the sponsor) wants to quit her job, and do not work for a about 6-12months while we are waiting for the interview invitation. Can this negatively affect our interview and our case? Do they ask for any documents regarding the current income and active job on interview? All was fine for the moment of our application, but is the sponsor expected to maintain her sufficient income during the whole processing time (which is around 20months for our field office)? Details: My wife, LPR, is the only sponsor. She has been working in USA for more than 2 years, having a decent annual salary that is several times higher than the poverty guideline. For the form I-864 she showed with her tax report this decent situation for the year 2021. We estimated, that even if she quits right now in September, her income for this year 2022 is far above the guideline. She wants to quit and do not plan to work for about a 6-12months, because she wants to sit with our 6m old baby. Our family can live on her savings for about the same amount of time. I am ready to start the work as soon as I got the work permit (but still waiting). I am highly grateful for any answers and suggestions.
