financial support question -- employment change and going abroad

[zhongyuan34 0]

To the AOS experts out there: I plan to leave my job in the States and move back abroad but I've already filed the K-1. As someone suggested, one option for us is to continue with the K-1. But this obviously creates an AOS problem. I plan to overcome the problem through 1) some savings and 2) getting the folks to do the I-1864A AOS. But can/should I also include the income I'd be getting from my job abroad? Should I inform USCIS when my job changes, or can my fiancee just bring the new employment information to the interview?

Also, on taxes: What are they looking for? I was working abroad for the last five years and made so little that I filed an "exclusion of foreign income" document. Will that cause problems for me?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

USCIS does not care about financial information at the petition stage. Financial information is not required evidence at the filing of the petition (and is therefore ignored). It will be visited and reviewed at consulate interview. So any information contained with the initial petition will need to be updated.

Income abroad is not likely to be accepted because it will not continue when living in the USA.

Your foreign income cannot be used to qualify as sponsor unless it will continue in the US from the same source. So, you'll be qualifying for the visa based on a co-sponsor. (singular)
