Affidavit of support with a placement-based job

[simonschus 58]

Hi all,

My second question today but thought I'd keep them separate due to slightly different topics.

For our K-1 visa application, we received our NOA2 this past week and are waiting for everything to be forward to the NVC and then onto the US Embassy in London. I'm the beneficiary.

My US partner is employed in healthcare and has a work placement every 3 to 6 months. This means that all of her employment contracts are temporary. Her job is in demand and so she won't have any trouble finding her next placement at all. She is usually offered 3 to 4 placements nearing the end of her contract, and her work can pay for her to go anywhere in the US. For the affidavit of support, the guidance documents state that a letter from her employer needs to state whether her job is permanent/temporary. Presumably that would mean that any letter that her employer sends for our affidavit of support will presumably state that she is in temporary employment.

Do we need to ask her employer to explain the nature of her work being placement based and that they anticipate that she will begin a new contract at the end of her current placement.

Is there anything else we could do to help avoid any potential problems with the affidavit?

Simon.
