Does he have tax returns or transcripts for any of the previous three years (not including this one)? Would be helpful to show he's held a job in the past, as an indication that he may work yet again in the future.

 

Also, I'm sure you've done your homework here, but I guess you're allowed to use foreign assets? Seems like many of your assets are from Argentina. Everything else looks great!

You can use foreign assets as long as the income will continue which in our case it will.  Actually our US assets meet the test but more the better as far as I'm concerned

~~moved to progress reports from process and procedures~~

 

Have you lined up a joint sponsor in case they do not accept your assets?

No although certainly anyone in my family can/would do it.  But our joint assets are more than enough with a large margin, even just the ones in the US, so I'm not concerned.

Land purchase agreement neans nothing.  The land must be in your name, assessed professionally for value and anything you owe (mortgage for example) removed from said value for net value of land.  Same goes for anything owned in Argentina only then you convert value to USD.  

Your biggest assets at this time should hopefully be cash in the bank accounts.  With the foreign account, take away any foreign taxes or penalties if required and then convert to USD for value in the USA.

Again insured value of horses is not the professionally assessed value of being able to sell them within 1 year. 

 

I hope that helps?

Thanks. We own the land in the US free and clear - no mortgages.  I put purchase agreement as I don't have the title in hand yet but it's the legal contract and yes in our names. Also, the assets in Argentina were certified by an accountant in terms of value and also all owned 100%.  And point on the horses but that's the husband's business and we own quite a few - as in well north of 50;) so the insurance is merely to serve as a value setting.

 

The cash in our US account would meet the amount needed but I want to make sure we can address any doubts with all the other assets.  Thanks for your suggestions though.
