OCTOBER 2014 FILER FINALLY APPROVED!! + some questions

[Wren and Fox 0]

It took a year and two days for us to get our NOA-2! But we got it, yay!

My most important question is related to our co-sponsor. We were going to use my American fiance's grandpa who was very wealthy (millionaire) and I had no concerns about using him. Unfortunately he died in August and his assets were split between his 2 children. I don't know exactly what they got or any of the details. My fiance now wants to use his mom as a co-sponsor. I am not sure if this will be as good as his grandpa. Without the inheritance her income is much lower than my fiance's and I doubt she looks impressive on paper. She's been unemployed for 3 years. So, how much would one have to have inherited to be able to co-sponsor whilst being unemployed?

My fiance probably *just* meets the income requirements, and only by virtue of working over-time. He also doesn't have a bank account, and I personally feel a whole lot more comfortable having a co-sponsor as a safety net. We did not endure a year of waiting for a NOA-2 just to be denied at the interview!

My second question is that I started a new job this past week so it isn't on the biographical page that we sent in with the petition. Do I update it and bring it with me to the interview? Is there something else I have to do concerning this before the interview?

Thank you!

Yup :/ They received the petition on October 27 2014 and we got our approval on October 29 2015. We are not the norm, so don't let our case make you anxious about your own!
