Working/Living Overseas Concern

Hi all,

I have just a quick question!

My fiance and I applied for the Fiance visa in January 2012 (I am the USC). I am concerned about one little thing. I currently live in his country (Honduras) because I work here. After we met and I came here to see him, I started working here and I have received a work visa through the school that I teach at. I have been working here since February 2011 because I got a job teaching here a few weeks after I arrived. I originally bought a round-trip ticket but I changed the date of my return because I was working and didn't return to the USA until Easter Break. I have been back to the USA two times since I've been working and living here with my fiance.

My concern is that the US Embassy will think that I don't have ties to the US because I don't have a job there and I have a visa here which doesn't expire for two years. I don't own a house in the US, but I DO have bank accounts (with a balance) and credit cards that are active and updated. I will be quitting my job when the school year is over so we can move back to the USA (hoping to have it secured by the end of the summer!) but I don't currently have a job in the USA. I have been applying for jobs but so far, so bites.

I'm wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation like mine. I also had written my address on the petition as my one here in Honduras, but later wrote the address that my fiance will be living at as my parent's house in the USA (and as stated on my driver's license) because I read somewhere on the forums that someone else did the same, but now I am kind of worried! It's been on my mind lately and I want to clear any doubts I have right now!

I appreciate any advice that anyone has.

Thanks,

Kate
