That's the thing with his current income he passes that 125% test quite comfortably. His household size is 2, him and his wife, and he makes more than $30k per year so he is well above that 125% test.

As you can see below the poverty guideline, he is well above that. Does anyone think CO can still ask him to find joint sponsor?

Sponsor's houshold size 125% of HHS Poverty Guidelines

2 $19,662

3 $24,737

4 $29,812

5 $34,887

6 $39,962

7 $45,037

8 $50,112

No why would they. If you meet or exceed guideline for this year and last no issue. Did he make same last year. If not then yes he may have a problem.

Many embassies want current and previous income to be above. Does he meet that?

Dhweels,

Yes he does meet that level for last year as well. One last question since he already submitted his tax transcripts for year 2011, 2012, 2013 to NVC, does he still need W2 at the time of interview?

Thank you so much for all your help. I just want to put him on ease.

Upon reading the hard-copy, I found that NVC made a mistake and emailed me the wrong checklist. I contacted a supervisor at NVC and she instructed me to write a letter of explanation to accompany my "real" checklist response. She also told me this may not help me and that we may be back in line. Lord help us!

ok this is a bit off topic, and Im not sure if this is the best place to ask this question but honestly I dont know where would be the appropriate area, so hopefully someone here will know the answer...

My interview is next week for my wife ( Im the USC) I am currently living abroad with her and our children, I have a job offer for when we enter the US, but they just contacted me and apparrantly the job they have for me just changed to be a job in another country, (not the US nor Mexico). They would also be hiring my wife, so this is a US based job and we would be getting paid through the US systen with w2 and what not, but we wouldn't be physically in the US, and I understand that once my wife is issued her residency, she must spend a minimum of 6 months per year within the US. Is this going to cause her to lose everything we have been working for these past 17 months? Or is there a way to keep her green card valid even if we are not within the US, because in order for her to work for this company they will require her to have a social security number to be able to work and get paid.

Thank you in advance, hopefully someone will have an idea or could guide me as to where I should post my question.

I know for US government contractor jobs working elsewhere is like working in US. Not sure about yours. I would copy this topic into your own thread so the general whole community of VJ can read it.

Not too many drop by here.
