Due to my boyfriend losing his job a month ago,he now moved up to Washington and is looking for a new job.

His divorce will (finally!!!) be final very soon and I will probably go to visit him in WA by November.We thought that if everything goes well we might finally put the I 129 in while I'm there......

Now my question only is ,how long does he have to have the new job? We definitley do not have anyone who could or would be a co sponsor.

He also wants to join the Army National Guards soon.Is that gonna be counted as Income and will it make the entiire Immigration Process any easier?

Thanks for any helpful replies!

There isn't any required time the petitioner has to be employed in order to file on your behalf. I think it probably *is* easier if the petitioner is employed, but if he has some trouble finding a new job right away, he could always rely on his savings and maybe he could find SOMEONE willing to co-sponsor you -- even if it's a friend or a cousin. Anyway, if it's just you and him, the required income is not very high for a household of 2 people and he could probably find a job where he will make more than that (there are poverty guidelines posted in the guides I think). Also, I think his national guards income would count, so no worries. :)
