Changing Jobs Midstream just prior to NOA2

[SOTY 0]

Hi all,

I have an interesting situation here.

I may be changing employers and this looks like it may happen just before or even just after my NOA2..

1.) If I sent the pack out after the NOA2 and then subsequently change employers(when interview already established),

then what happens to my pay stubs and former employer letter attesting my employment??

- Is the information no longer valid and I have to resend a new I-134 form?

2.) If I change my employer right before I receive my NOA2, then what should I do?

- Send former employer letter saying I WAS employed and here are my past paystubs, and also provide letter from NEW employer saying I'm employed(and perhaps only supplying one paystub or possibly none at all(if paid monthly)???

I'd like to just hold off, but I don't really have control over the timing of these things, and of course would like to send off the packaged ASAP.

Any thoughts?

Hello Soty,

I changed jobs before I received my NOA2. That did not cause me any problems. I just provided a letter from my current employer and any paystubs that I recieved between the time my employment began until a month before my fiance's interview. You are required to have the past 3 years tax returns or tax transcripts with you in support of the I-134. This will show your past employer as well as how much you made that year. I don't see any harm in obtaining a letter from your past employer stating the dates that you worked for them and what your salary was, for good measure but I dont' think that is a requirement. You could also draft a statement to include with your form explaining the change of employers. Do what makes you feel the most confident.

Good Luck!

Thanks, but I don't know if this really addresses my concern, especially for point #1

So after the NOA2 comes, and after I send out the I-134 and before my Fiancee's Vise issuance, if my job changes?

Then no issue? They're just going by what was on my I-134 which was accurate at the time of filing I suppose?

No need to resubmit I-134?

As far as employer change just before my NOA2, I suppose it's best to get letter from prior employer with prior paystubs and letter from new employer (EVEN IF <2 PAYSTUBS) and provide both with a letter of explanation.

Sound good?

Other than that. I thought it wasn't a requirement to provide copies of your taxes for the I-134 form. This would only be if I were self employed.

Only the I-864 requires a copy of one's tax return.

Anyone can confirm/comment on the above appreciated. Thanks!
