Currently Unemployed - will it affect how they view me?

[JLH142 0]

Hello,

I'm new to this and am finding it overwhelming and worrying so this is very helpful.

It seems silly but on the package three - DS-230 Part one - it asks 'Present occupation' and I am looking and applying for jobs at the moment but obviously have none.

My mum thinks that this will mean that they won't think highly of me? Is this true?

Perhaps I'm over thinking things but I'm freaked out as even the medical was intimidating so I'm on the alert!

Thanks in advance

I suppose it's always different depending on the country etc but when we filed our I-129F Travis (petitioner) wasn't working and actually wasn't working until about a month before my interview, lol. We used his Mom as a sponsor and we've had no problems at all with the financial stuff. They're not going to deny you for being unemployed

that's not true as long as you have an sponsor that exceeds the poverty limit, you should lie because they will require an employment letter with affidavit of support if you tell them that you have a job. put currently unemployed. and make sure you have a good sponsor. http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864p.pdf this link shows you the poverty limit. If you have an sponsor then there is nothing to worry aabout.

i meant shouldn't. sorry

Thank you so much! Phew, it feels so nice to have people to talk to on this. It can feel very isolating!

You are the beneficiary right, cause the DS-230 is about the beneficiary. They don't care whether the beneficiary is employed or not. Its the USC petitioner that needs a job and/or co-sponsor to be able to support you in the US.
