Marriage to USC on TN Visa (USC Not working)

[laxtn 12]

Hi all,

 

Thank you in advance for any help,

 

I little bit of background, I met this guy three year ago. 2 years ago we got engaged and moved in together (we have plenty of evidence like him being added to my car insurance, authorized user on my credit cards, phone plan, iCloud family account, etc). I'm a software engineer from Mexico working on a TN Visa currently making ~130k annually.

 

Now we want to get married and file for AOS around January next year. Only issue is that my fiancé is not working (he's currently launching an app and has no income). Is my salary enough to satisfy the household income without requiring a sponsor? (we have had a lot of issues getting one) is 10 months left on my visa enough time for processing?

 

Thank you

Your salary is enough.  Just make sure you include a letter from the employer in your I-864 stating the terms of your employment (either clearly saying or implying that your job will stay when you get a GC).

 

As for the 10 months, that should be enough time to get EAD, so you should be fine.  Make sure you apply for EAD.

It should be fine. I was under similar circumstances. I would try expedite the EAD just incase it takes longer than usual, you could use financial hardship as a reason? Since your husband isn't working and you are the sole provider.

Thank you all for the replies.

 

One more question, how should I fill the form I-864? Should I submit this or should my fiancé be the one submitting it with my income?

Do you have any idea regarding change of status on social security card. Currently I am on F1 visa and have SSN (Valid for work DHS). If my status is changed from F1 to LPR I have to change my status of SS card.
