is retirement income well over the poverty guideline good enough if no job

[DAAG 1]

is retirement income, that's well over 125% of poverty level, usable in place of a job as source of income on affidavit of support for adjustment of status of a k-1 fiancee now married to petitioner? i ask this because i was laid off last year by boss who could no longer make payroll, during this process and wound up making more retired than working. not complaining of course, just trying to make sure retirement works since they state specifically income from job. And going to work at another job before age 66 1/2 would cause loss of some social security making me work for about half what other workers in same job would receive. After 66 1/2 we'll do very well with another job, especially since wife wants to work also, and then i wont lose any social security for having the audacity to work. Ive worked all my life, starting in my teens, and feel weird not working but cant find any jobs right now, and i guess its ok for now as id lose money by working. But i need to know if USCIS will allow me to just use retirement income on affidavit of support, or if i have to take a loss and work for very little along side people making twice as much doing the same job to make a check in the block, just because I was forced onto social security a couple of years early by a boss worrying about expenses more than income, after wed been together almost since the start of his buisness. hope he wasn't able to kill my dreams and destroy the rest of my life also.

I assume there's no substitute for I-864, at this point, like there was for k-1 petition.

Since you said your retirement income is well over the 125% guideline, that will be fine. It is income. You just need to send in the documents with the I-864 that prove you receive that income.

Agree with Jay-Kay. Retirement Income means you worked throughout the years and Paid taxes and entitled to Retirement Benefits. Just supply proof for the Interview. I think you will be fine as well. GOOD LUCK AT THE INTERVIEW.

Yep, it is fine. I submitted my 1099 from the Defense Finance system for my military retirement, and CRSC. I also submitted my statement from the VA showing disability income. The interview person mentioned all of them.
