  1. That doesn't sound like anything more than a job offer, the way you explain it, but maybe it can be explained in a way that justifies interpreting it as income continuing from the same source.
  2. Leaving the country constitutes abandoning an adjustment of status application. You've posted in the immigrant spouse VISA forum. To secure a spouse visa, one leaves the USA on time, no matter when the petition is filed, and then completes the immigrant visa process with a medical exam and interview at the US Consulate in Montreal. Time to do the homework and study the difference between adjusting status from within the USA, and applying for a spouse visa. The result is the same ultimately, but the processes are very different. Also, the "package" is not the same.
  3. Joint sponsor also does I-864, not the "a". The "a" version is for combining income. Petitioners do not combine income with joint sponsors. Now is the time to become an A-Student of the I-864 and its excellent instructions.
  4. Yes the details matter, but they are not clear to me. If Company A is an Irish subsidiary of Company B or Company B otherwise owns company A, then that can be clearly documented and it would be fine, meaning fitting the description I gave you. If not, please explain more clearly.
  5. yes, your income that will continue from the same source, can be counted. Get an offer letter stating you will be transferred once the visa is in hand, at X salary. State that salary on the I-864 directly, and it will be added to the total. The form is designed to do that.
  6. I'm actually not an expert on sponsorship of adult children and their families. However, what many do in a situation like this is to proceed with the visas for only those they can currently sponsor, so that the adults can come to the USA, go to work and act as joint sponsors for the rest of the the family. For everybody to come at once, if you have a joint sponsor earning 200k, do the math with the I-864p and go from there. Another thought would be to use different joint sponsor for each family or for one or more families the 200k sponsor doesn't qualify for.
  7. Scroll up to see the answer given 17 hours ago.
  8. I would contact NVC, and see if they can schedule the interview for February. Explain why. That will give time for recovery and CRBA filing before visa in hand, and avoid conflicting dates.
  9. Self employed for employer. For address, just type "works from home". That will cover everything from October 1, 2021. Then move one to prior employment.
  10. Usually, no. Depends on the embassy whether you can ever pick up your passport. Generally, you will make arrangements during the interview phase for your passport with visa and instructions to be delivered by courier.
  11. Petitioner's can have both mailing and physical addresses. Use a mailing address in the USA that will not change, if possible.
  12. If it is her intention to change her surname, and she is able to do so in Japan, then file with the married name, and do the change ASAP. No problem at all, and much less hassle than waiting until US Citizenship.
  13. My literal interpretation is that it is not needed, but if available, I would get it anyway.
  14. If they get a W2, they are "employed" by the entity providing the W2.
  15. Scan and print locally is fine, but do upload.
  16. Exactly as I wrote. Submit online, but wait until you have the interview date. You also bring to interview, all the same things.
  17. Yes, add and document her assets. No need for a cover letter. Just be ready to explain your plan. Consular officers are tasked with making a judgment call about how likely it is that YOU will become a public charge. Do everything you can to make that decision easy for them.
  18. Address is not necessary but the name should just be entered in the form in the native alphabet. If you cannot type the native alphabet in the form, just upload the file with the full name in native alphabet and a note in English indicating the address is in Canada.
  19. Submit a whole new affidavit of support and supporting documents online before the interview, but only after you have an interview date.
  20. Are you saying the joint sponsor will do more than provide and sign papers? Are you saying the joint sponsor is actually going to support you? What is your plan to actually live and pay your living and medical expenses? You don't have to answer me, but the Consular Officer needs an answer, so you better have one. Don't expect a Consular officer to believe your joint sponsor is actually going to pay your expenses.
  21. If she has sufficient liquid assets in her account, she can declare and document those, instead of using a joint sponsor. If sufficient funds already available, is how you will support each other, then no issue. You have not provided details. Time to become an A-Student of the I-864 instructions and the form itself. Unless that joint sponsor is going to take the responsibility of actually supporting you, you still need a support plan. What is it?
  22. Usually, only close family members are willing to take on such an obligation, once they read what they are signing and understand the personal and financial information they must disclose.
  23. Correct, but also considered is their motivation to actually sponsor. Has this former coworker read the contract he will sign? By sponsor I mean actually support. You still need to present a viable plan for actual support. I've asked twice about the foreign spouse's ability and intention to contribute to the couple's support. You have not mentioned any of that. It is highly relevant. You do not "cover up" anything. You must convince the Consular Officer you will not become a public charge, meaning not have to be supported by the US taxpayer instead of your spouse and yourself.
