I am not sure, but it wouldn't hurt to get a co-sponsor right away. Hmmm... some other members may chip in with wiser advise.

Good luck, L.

If a co-sponsor is available, then definately gatehr the documents and submit that info. This will save you the delay of your wife finding the new job and gathering the documents to show the new income.

When did she get laid off?

thank you for answering, she got laid off just yesterday and the interview is after 4 weeks ! should the co-spnsor fill out the forms and become the primary sponsor ?

It could be that since your visa has passed the NVC....So more than likely the Consulate would not know your wife got laid off. Best not to mention it and see if they say something to you FIRST.

Exactly what I was thinking when I asked when she got laid off. Not sure if it's the same with a K-1 but with a K-3, the embassy wouldn't have even known if I had gotten laid off. They just go by what you have submitted. Might want to just ask around to see if anyone is willing to be a cosponsor just in case but maybe she'll have gotten a new job in the next 4 weeks. I wouldn't mention it.

If I remember correctly, casa no longer asks for the affidavit of support. But if Im wrong, someone please step in and correct, because its been awhile since we interviewed.

If it were me, Id keep it to myself and not worry. I have never heard of the consulate calling to verify employment (but again, if someone has please step in and correct). See if you can scrounge up a willing co-sponsor in the meantime, just to cover your butt.

They have to show the affidavit of support because of the cr-1 visa. They are completing AOS at the same time as the visa, not liek the K-1 where you file aos upon entering and show finacial support.

Theonly thing abot keepning quiet is at some point you may have to lie. The CO is likely t ask...where does your wife work? Better not to lie. It may seem like a small lie, but any lie risks permanent ban from entering the US.

I'd get a co-sponsor lined up. Even with a co-sponsor, your wife remains the primary sponsor even without a job.

oh guys, thank you very much for the information. there was a friend of mine who told me to say the truth in the inerview and avoid to lie, therefore, in case they ask me about her current job , i think i'll simply say " she recently got laid off". besides, the point that "mybackpages" has said is true, my wife should be the primary sponsor and because of her insufficient income we alreay got an other co -sponsor for her and we submited her forms and information to the nvc a while ago. i think since we already had a co-sponsor , we shouldn't worry very much. what do u think ? thanks alot

If you already have a co-sponsor that makes enough, you should be in good shape. If they ask you about what your wife does for a living, answer truthfully: she's a [whatever], she just got laid off and is seeking new employment. If she gets a job by your interview, she should send you the updated I-864, but with a co-sponsor, you should be fine.
