Hello so I am a Canadian citizen and my wife is a US citizen. We are currently living in Canada and working in Canada. Our I-130 was approved from USCIS and now we are at the NVC stage. Problem is since she has Canadian income and not a US based income I don't think it will count for the affidavit of support. 

 

We have tried looking for a joint sponsor with no luck. From my understanding the only way we are going to be approved is if she can provide sufficient US income which means she either has to move back to the US and find a job, or find a remote job in the US. Is there any other way around this or are these our only options? We don't want to be split apart and the chance of her finding a remote job seems impossible so we're just kinda defeated and ready to give up on this whole process.

Do you have assets you could use?

Thank you for moving this to the appropriate forum.

 

No viable assets unfortunately.


Does her employer by any chance have has US locations she could request a transfer to?  If her job will continue from the same source then she could use it. 
 

If not, then sounds like her only option is to go ahead and find a job in the US. 
 

You can visit in the meantime though, and most jobs would qualify her so hopefully you won’t be apart for too long. 
 

Good luck.

She will have to show US domicile anyway, when is she moving?
