So I still have at least until August to hear back about my NOA2 but I'd like to be prepared. I would require a co-sponsor for my visa IF I am still working part-time when the NOA2 arrives. Can someone tell me what the process is like when you have a co-sponsor, what stigma it puts on your case? I'm young and broke due to college loans and education debt. How badly does this reflect ? What advice would you give? What steps can I take to prepare?

It does not put a stigma on your case but you should find out if Ghana's consulate accepts co-sponsors for the K1 visa. Some countries do not.

first you will have to find out if ghana accepts co-sponsors. if they do, you should be good. you can look at the country's portal site here http://www.visajourney.com/portals/index.php?country=Ghana or call the embassy in accra.

i have the same problem with my fiancé being unemployed at the moment, and we are still waiting for the noa2. so i called my embassy to enquire about co-sponsors.

Ghana does for K-1s. I was a senior in college when I petitioned and recent graduate (grad student) when interview came. so I didnt have the income. Make sure both you and your co-sponsor provide documents- Tax Transcripts for sure, letter of employment(s), paycheck. w-2s and tax returns can be used but I would not advise for Ghana, as they usually request the Tax transcripts which are easy to obtain and cover all basis.

We had no issue with a co-sponsor. It was my dad.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the help. It definitely helps. What if the co-sponsor is my fiance's sister who also lives in the US? Does that change things at all?
