Thank you, Markiboy...

But I just want to clarify.

I am already US citizen, and sponsoring my wife to have her status changed.

I have submitted Affidavit of Support, last year's tax return, and pay stubs from my previous job.

Do you think that a letter explaining that I am unemployed now would help?

Or I guess what I am asking is the fact that I, the one who is sponsoring, being unemployed be a negative factor?

Did you submit a letter from your employee?

Thank you very much.

Okay, so your wife has a pending Adjustment of Status (AOS)? Meaning, you already submitted the necessary documents (ie Affidavit of Support, tax returns)?

The only thing I would worry about is the upcoming interview. Both you (the USC) and your wife (the beneficiary) will be interviewed. The adjudicator will most likely question your current employment. If you are not presently working, and your wife cannot work until she received her green card...I'm not sure how that will work. USCIS does not want people to be a public charge. So if you have the financial savings and/or have a sponsor, you guys should be fine. I don't mean to be negative, but I'm trying to give possible scenarios that may arise.

No, submitting a letter now explaining that your unemployed would be of little use. At the interview, if questioned, you can explain then.

Is your wife presently working? Meaning, is she adjusting status from a work visa? Sorry, I assumed that she wasn't working. If she is presently working under a work visa, she can actually use I-864A. This contract is between you (the sponsor) and her (the household member). You can then use her income (not yours) to support the two of you. This is assuming that she is legally working now.

Being unemployed is not necessarily a negative factor. Provided you can prove to USCIS that you will not be a public charge, they really don't care if you're full-time, part-time or unemployed.

Yes, I submitted a letter from my employer. It basically stated my position in the company, the various responsibilities, the salary and how long my employment was with them.
