Sure you'll pass, cuz once you get here and get married, if you don't meet 125%, you need only have 3X the difference in assets, or have a co-sponsor. Two things which USEM usually don't take into account.

For example, say I have a HH of 2, and make $18,000 this year. If USEM uses 100%, my fiance gets a visa. Then she gets here, we get married, and now I must make $19,387. My deficit is $1,387, so 3X that is needed in assets, or $4,161. So I can show USCIC that my house has $10,000 in equity in it, and I can file without a co-sponsor, nor do I need to have any extra cash on hand. It's a HUGE difference, in reality.

This is some very useful information DavenRoxy.
