Interview Coming up ... help needed

I apologize if I am posting in the wrong section.

 

So, I need some help. AoS process now, after marriage and EAD.

My husband and I have been going through USCIS for over a year. June 2016 we became engaged, sent out the starting paperwork the same month. We married in February, he is here now living with me, and he's working with his work visa as we wait for our GC to be approved. We have been waiting a long time for this interview.

The problem is, as his wife and sponsor, I lost my job in June 2017. I am getting unemployment and am looking, but our interview has been scheduled a month from now.

 

I have a few questions. We already submitted the affidavit of support and my taxes documents before we married. The notice of action I-797C says to bring these to the interview unless already submitted. So, I'm not sure if I'm okay for the interview, or if his income with the work visa will work for us, or if I will have to ask my retired parents to co-sponsor. 

 

Can anyone help?

my sponsoring spouse quit a few months ago and till the interview last week didn't have work. however, she never claimed for unemployment benefit. I'm on H1B too, and that could  be use as part of the household income. we just brought an updated I-864, our 2016 tax returns, and proof that my job is full time and will continue after immigration. The officer never asked about an updated I-864. We got approved the next day.

You should be fine, just go with the previous one, the updated one and your tax returns you submitted before. My Advice is if the IO don't ask, don't tell....But if asked then you can explain you lost your job and currently job hunting and if his work visa income is enough for you two (if it above the poverty line) then you can use that.

 

Just my own advice.....
