It might or might not have impact. You won't know until your interview probably. Also your professional doesn't make you 100% legit in the eyes of the embassy.

As @Roel states your profession has nothing to do with your trustworthiness in terms of immigration.

I do appreciate all your comments so far but in all honesty only ROEL has said something I can reason with.Question will always come and sending money to someone out there has nothing to do with proof of relationship.in as much reason for sending money can be answered and they can do their background check up to me I see no big deal.It is what it is............’sending money’ @ George and Rothin none of this friends in anyway close or being related to my fiancée.so I am not paying off any one or trying to buy no one

The point I was trying to make was to undo the posted misinformation

A couple of thoughts on this...

1) It is unlikely that the embassy would look into your personal finances since once you arrive in the USA on a K-1 visa you won't be able to work for a while anyway.   However, it is likely that the embassy personal may look at this forum and put two and two together and figure out who you are at the interview.  If that happens the fact that you are worried about this being a potential red flag may actually end up prompting questions. 

2) The amount of money you are sending to the USA is important.  The USA has strict tracking of money and potentially even more so from the middle east.  So while it may not be an issue for immigration it may come up in the future as an issue for your friends and or you.

3) Again if the money is significant then you can bet that the US Government knows about it.  As such you could land on any number of 'lists' to try to figure out why a national of a middle eastern country is sending money to someone other than his wife.  Given the current immigration climate I would think that this would be something you'd want to avoid.

-

So in summary... it's only a red flag if it's been noted by and raised suspicion of the US government and your post here makes that potentially more likely,  if the money is significant there could be tax implications in the future.
