This is not true.

While mentioning the job has no value in getting a visa, it's not detrimental as you have pointed out.

How many people do you know that found jobs and then entered into fake marriages to get those jobs?

For many countries in the west where entering USA on work or any other visa is easy, the job factor may not put any wrong impression. But for countries like mine, where visas are really hard even if you have a genuine relationship, or job offer, or even a short visit. The COs thoroughly check if there is a reason other than getting married. A common question which is asked is "do you want to enter USA just to be rich?". I know many people who got job offers but couldn't get a visa. Different embassies view the candidates differently. I would say if someone from England (for British it is easy to move to US if they have a job offer) would say he has a job then it would go unnoticed but if someone from, say, India tell the CO that he has a job there, the CO would check to see if the beneficiary is interested in living and working in US more than marrying his or her partner.

Thank you everyone for answering! I will follow what it seems to be the consent and just leave the job for once I have the visa and permit, being legally able to work.

About what is being discussed, my opinion is that it would be reasonable that a job offer shown together with strong proof of bona fide relationship would help the case, since it would be evidence that the beneficiary can definetely make a living without becoming a public charge. Then again, I know it's not how it works.

It just makes me uncomfortable that my fiancee has basically to show proof that she can be also my mom once I'm in the US, like I'm an uneducated child. I fought and studied hard to have an education that allows me to thrive wherever I need to, and I would like that my degree would prove to the CO that I don't need to immigrate to make money. Brazil has not been a third world country for some years now, and the days when people here would desperately try to run away to United States are long gone (In time, I know that no one here accused me of doing so).

Anyway, I have the answer I need, this post is just to show my opinion about how I think it SHOULD be. But I will follow everyone's advice, thank you very much!
