I filed for the K-1 visa last month, and during that time under employment I listed my current job. Ive been with this job for 3 years but I would like to change jobs for a better salary. I want to know if it's ideal to change jobs during the process, or should I wait until everything is finished before doing so? My current job makes $42K, but I would like to make more to prove I am able to financial support my beneficiary.

You filed the I-129f petition to be able to be able to eventually apply for the K-1 at the embassy level, just to clarify.

 

I think if you were to change jobs now it would be okay, especially if you're going to be making more. From sound of it you could supply tax transcripts to show a stable income over the years of above the requirement. Just don't change jobs right near the time of the interview. You'd like to be at a new job for at least 3-4 months before the interview I'd say at least.

The immigration process doesn't stop you from living 

YMMV
