Affidavit of Support / Change of Job

[Joe and Ann 6]

Hello Everyone,

We filed for Employment Authorization Document (EAD), Advance Parole (AP), and Adjustment of Status (AOS) for both my wife (adjusting from K-1) and stepson (adjusting from K-2) in July and received the Notifications of Action (NOA) and Biometrics Appointment Letters in August. As part of the AOS package I included an I-864, Affidavit of Support, that was based entirely on my income (I am a Manager with a Big Four accounting firm) and supported by tax transcripts, pay stubs, and an employment letter.

However, I was recently offered a Director position with a local government contractor. It is a promotion, more money, and closer to home. However, it is NOT the job referenced in the I-864 nor is it the job referenced in the supporting employment letter. Could this cause any problems prior to, or during, the interview? Obviously, I would be obtaining an employment letter from my new employer prior to the interview, just in case.

Thanks and have a great afternoon!

Joe

Hi Joe,

In my opinion, I wouldn't think this is going to be a big deal unless, you lost a job. More than anything, the affidavit of support and supporting documents is just a better way for them to assess that you had been a law-abiding citizen, you didn't evade taxes. I would, however, bring in all the pay stubs, employment statement from your employer on company letterhead and maybe the proof of insurance all the relevant information that you think will help them asses your situation better.

I have met people who have lost their jobs and surprisingly, they still got a GC for their spouses. I don't know the full details but that was way more complicated than yours. Clearly, you should be better off than they are.

Hope this helps ease your mind.

Have a great day!
