Just a quick question... My wife has her final interview in 2 weeks and I just want to make sure we won't have any problems.

We filed DCF in Kuwait and have decided to move back to the US. My employment contract in Kuwait is finished and I have a new job offer in DC. I know some CO will not accept a job offer as 'continuous employment' and will reject the I-864. So, I've also detailed my assets and provided the latest statements for everything. Total assets in stocks and mutual funds is about 350k and we have no liabilities. I've also provided the offer letter and emails between myself, hiring manager, and the relocation manager.

Will we have any issues with the I-864?

Employment that is not interrupted - and in the case of immigration, employment that continues with the same employer, once you reloate to the U.S.

Say for instance you have a job in Japan (and you are the American sponsor). You cannot count the money you are earning in Japan.

Now let's say you have an offer of employment in the U.S. - which you are going to take when you return with your Husband or Wife - that also has no bearing on your visa application.

The only time it would count is if you are going to continue to be employed by the same company you were employed by in Japan, once you return to the U.S. - that could be considered 'continuous employment with the same company'.

A quick question related to the subject matter: My "employment" for the time being is a small Internet-based business that I run, which I can do from basically anywhere. I am currently out of the US but will be able to continue doing this when I get back to the US. How could I go about demonstrating this in order to use it as income on the I-864 for my wife? What evidence would be sufficient? Thanks.
