Indeed! Particularly in stores. In the store where we shop the packing and carrying out is often done by a young man with Down Syndrome, for example.

Your ability to work is a positive factor overall in the determination for public charge, but it doesn't meet the requirements for the I-864 nor completely alleviate the concern.

The CO will evaluate the totality of her circumstances, along with that of any joint sponsor presented. From that, they will make a public charge determination. Nobody other than the CO can know the result of that decision beforehand, although you and your spouse know your circumstances better than anybody so you can probably already have an idea if your case makes sense or not.

 

A job offer is not a job...the US government does not rely on you getting a job or maintaining a job - it needs an assurance in case you don't (or can't...if something happens to you) work.

Yes, and you are receiving answers about how you'll have an uphill battle with the overall financial picture with a non-working USC petitioner.  By all means, let us know how it works out for you.

I guess you communicate a lot online? Do you spend all day emailing or messaging each other back and forth? Video chatting? Skyping? I sit at a desk using a computer all day. The most strenuous thing I have to do is walk to the printer to pick up what I have printed. I think most people would be able to do a job like that, even if it’s just part time. Especially if they have no problems using a phone or computer to communicate with a loved one all day. 

 

We are not saying your wife has to get a job. We are not divorced so we don’t know her capabilities. However you asked for help to improve your final situation and one of the best ways to increase your income is to work.

I said in the begining she " CAN'T " work  it means she can't .. like you said her working is one of the ways and i wanted to know the other ways but i dont know why you were just talking about her working even i said she can't it's like you don't believe me . 

- I dont get a lot of people used just co sposnor   ( spouse not working )and they got their visa approved 

- i also dont understand the fact for them asking for a co sponsor if they will always look at the spouse sponsor ( whats the point  of co sponsor )

So there is no point of getting a job offer ?
