I was employed by a company for 4 yrs and applied for our i 130 with that info. However, a better job with a bit more pay per hour came available and i accepted that job just after we were accepted but still waiting on our approval for noa2. Do I need to put together a letter or something for filing the i 864 when we file to explain the job change or do I just file with the new job info? With this job it leaves me just several hundred dollars shy of being able to show the 125% but I will use my 401k which is pretty significant and we also have co sponsor. Thanks for any help.

Apply using your current employment status/job. No explanation is needed. You will need a letter of employment from your current employer.

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

If you have already applied, I would not change anything. When you go to your interview for your i485 you may give the immigration officer your new employment information and they will accept it. They only thing they care about is your tax returns/w-2's as far as income. Making changes while your case is pending could further delay your case because they might automatically send you a Request for Evidence letter. How do I know? It happened to me.

No no...I wouldn't make any changes right now I meant at the time we put together the i 864 and send that one in...do we include a letter of explanation? or just simply use the current employement information....with the current letter from employer and new paystubs etc? I will have current tax forms available including if we send documents right after april 15th.

thanks!!
