evidence of support

[surfndan 0]

Hey everybody-

I am about to send my fiance, who is from Canada, a letter from my company specifying my salary and what not. it is dated for October 29th. Given, she will probably not have her interview until February of next year, will it matter that the letter is dated in October? Also, I have provided the paystubs they requested but they are from October as well. Do they want the most recent paystub and letter from your job?

Also, on a random note. Once my fiance is here in the US married to me. Is she aloud to leave the US? How long does she have to be here before we leave to visit other countries? Is she allowed to work in another country? We are thinking about working for a year or two in antoher country and want to know if that is feasible.

Please advise, thanks!

I know little about the I-134 - so i'll guess that yes, something closer to the date would be preferable.

After you get married she cannot leave before completing her adjustment of status (well technically she could if she receives her advance parole document - but she will have to attend an interview).

Have a look here for information on maintaining your permanent residency status:

USCIS - Maintaining Permanent Residence

See also - Application for a travel document

Abandoning Permanent Resident Status

You may be found to have abandoned your permanent resident status if you:

Move to another country intending to live there permanently

Remain outside of the United States for more than 1 year without obtaining a reentry permit or returning resident visa. However, in determining whether your status has been abandoned, any length of absence from the United States may be considered, even if less than 1 year

Remain outside of the United States for more than 2 years after issuance of a reentry permit without obtaining a returning resident visa. However, in determining whether your status has been abandoned any length of absence from the United States may be considered, even if less than 1 year

• Fail to file income tax returns while living outside of the United States for any period

• Declare yourself a “nonimmigrant” on your tax returns

My fiance said his packet said the info had to be within 6 months of the interview date. So I would recommend waiting for now.
