Seemingly silly question... I (USC) live and work in the UK and will not have a job in the US lined up before submitting my I-864 form. So for question number 22 regarding my current employment, should I answer that I am currently employed as a civil engineer, even though my salary from that employment will not count towards the sponsorship requirement? If so, should I still put $0 for my current income (question 23)? My dad will be our joint sponsor, if that makes any difference.

Thanks!

Question 23 says enter the amount of income "that you are using to meet the requirements of this form". Since you can't use any of your current income to meet those requirements, I would enter zero. Question 22 doesn't have that qualification, so I would mark currently employed and write civil engineer.
