Hello VJers-

I've been reading the ROC forum and haven't located an answer to a situation that my husband and I may find ourselves in.

We are 6 months from being able to apply for ROC.

My husband has been interviewing with several companies hoping to begin his professional career in the US. At least one of the jobs will require relocation which is not ideal but could be the first step for him professionally. I can not relocate right now due to my job, so we may face at least 6 months or so living separately because of this job (if they offer it). We don't know if he'll be offered the position as of yet, but we wanted to check on all things related to ROC before even considering an offer. If this would negatively affect our ROC application then of course we won't contemplate a position like this.

I do know that the onus is on us to prove that our marriage is legitimate and in the eyes of USCIS that typically includes cohabitation (with the exception for cases of military, etc.) at the time of ROC.

Do any of you have any information or advice to offer based upon your experiences with ROC? If I've missed a thread that discussed this already, please point me in the right direction and I'll just read up there.

Thank you for your help.

There is another thread (I Will look for it) that someone posted two different living places due to jobs and they got approved, of course when providing evidence about maintaining their relationship as husband and wife. I hope I can find it or if someone else can find it, it would be great. I think it dates back to November or October of 2009...

oh this would be great to read. I looked last night and my search terms took me back to 2008. I'm quite certain that I did not find the thread you are referring to though.

Thanks for your help!
