Here`s my situation. I have been employed with a video company from Nov 1, 2010 until June 13 , 2011. I then went to work for a temporary summer job until September. Now my boss from the video company wrote me a letter to give to the consulate as my guaranteed placement of employment for December. This is what he wrote

To whom it may concern:

This letter serves as a confirmation of employment for Mr. XXXXX

Mr. XXXXX worked as a freelancer/contractor with our company from November 1, 2010 to June 13, 2011. His role within the company was to manage videography work and was paid a salary of XX per hour.

Mr. XXX was asked to return to his position on or about the first week of December 2011.

Any questions regarding Mr. XXX role within our company, please call us at XXXXXX

Sincerely

XXXX

Now I noticed that on Question 7 it says to state the job that you are employed or engaged in the business of.. Would it be ok for me to add the video company on question 7 since the letter will prove that I will be employed in December? I assume that`s what the engagement part of the question means. I would also like to know what do I put under income in case its ok for me to disclose the video company? I am currently a full time student at a community college and will continue to be so within the next year. In case I`m not able to disclose the video company what do I put on the affidavit since I`m a student?

Oh noo I am actually the petitioner

They will not consider future offers of employment. When is your interview?

at any rate, they are not offering you "employment" they are hiring you as a contractor. You are self employed. You can claim to be self employed right now and use last year's tax return as evidence. You do not need anything form this company if you claim to be self employed.

I presume they send you a 1099 form at the end of the year, correct? Make sure that is attached to last years income tax return.

VERMONT! I Reject Your Reality...and Substitute My Own!

My fiancee`s interview is on the 21st. The guy who owns the company is self employed and I will be working for his company. Yes he did give me a 1099 for 2010. So for now on the I-134 I should only put full time student and just show them the 1099 and the future employement letter he gave me correct? So I assume that on the income I should put 0 as I am currently not working for anyone right now. As for the 1099 he handed it to me late so therefore I will be declaring that 1099 for next year`s return.
