I'm unsure if this will get any responses considering the unique circumstances but I figure it's worth a shot.

My now-husband is originally from the U.K. He traveled to the US on a K1 visa in June of 2014, we were married August of 2014. He obtained his green card in December of 2015.

As of recent my husband has been ill and has missed several days of work, and as a result has lost his job. Amidst the financial struggle we entertained the idea of returning to England to live with his family and stay, possibly, indefinitely once his medical conditions are addressed and treated and we're able to get on our feet financially.

After researching different visa types for U.K. immigration it was determined I would need a visa to join a family member in the U.K. However there is an income requirement that he (my husband) would need to meet as my sponsor.

I guess I'm wondering how that would be necessary considering the fact that he's been working and living in the United States for the past two years. Would he need to provide proof of his income while he was working in the United States or would it just be proof of him working in the U.K.?

His step father's income is more than adequate to cover the requirement but we are unsure if there is a possibility for a co-sponsor for these types of circumstances.

I really would hate to be away from my husband during these difficult times for him, mentally and physically regarding his medical conditions. But the more I read the more I believe that we will need to be apart until a solution is found.

Any help or insights on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

My husband traveled to the US from the UK in June, we married in August and filed his I-485 adjustment of status and I-765 work authorization form that same month. We received an RFE for the I-485, submitted the additional evidence mid November, and recently received correspondence regarding that. They identified our application as a potential interview waiver case. Which is great news. However it's been almost 120 days since we filed for the I-765 work authorization form and have yet to hear anything back about it. About when should that be approved? Should we get a receipt number for filing the form at all? And is there a way to check the status? I'm worried that they may not have processed it or something. My husband is just getting very anxious sitting around at home all day and we're hoping that his work authorization comes through soon.

I just need to know if this is normal (especially with it being the holidays lately) or if I should contact someone to confirm it was received. Any help is appreciated!
