Is having a business name registered under the beneficiary affect the petition?

[chadxara 0]

Hi,

Newbie here I (beneficiary) and my fiance (petitioner) just recently filed our application last 03/07/2014.

Got our NOA1 notification via email and text last 03/14/2014 and still waiting (im)patiently for the official NOA1 letter via mail.

This may be silly but, I was wondering if the USCIS investigates the career/work background of the beneficiary.

There's a business registered under my name here in my home country (Philippines) and I'm still in the process

of transferring it to someone which would take time. The business is not mine but due to some reasons,

I agreed it to be registered under my name. Also, I didn't include it to my G-325A work history.

Will this affect our application?

Thank you!

Not going to be a problem at all. You can just say you just own it and never really worked there, on the very small chance they ask.

Thank you! I'll be less paranoid.

USCIS mostly focus to do background's check to the petitioner. But, when it comes to the US embassy, they will be more focus to the beneficiary. I knew because I remember one of consular officers mentioned about "how great the internet is and you can find almost everything there" during their conversation while I had my interview. They did check on me from internet or that kind stuff. But, don't worry, beside worked as an editor, I also have 2 websites I take care of and did not mention on my G-235A as well. It never came up during my interview even though they could easily find it since I listed my name as the owner and administrator.

Anyhow, you already have your NOA-1 via text and email. That indicate NOA-1 on your timeline, not when your fiance received letter by mail. Good luck for the rest of your journey.

Doubt that will have any affect on the visa process.

Thank you for the useful information. Hopefully, the business name will be transferred within 2 months.

Keeping fingers crossed that we won't get an RFE.
