Hi All,

Just had a question. I am a US citizen and have applied for my wife's immigrant visa. Her interview date is on 17th July; received the letter a week ago. I just finished my undergraduate studies and dont have a job (MBBS; doctor) but I have a joint sponsor with a $100K + salary. Will this go through? We intend to immigrate and do PG there in US. 

 

Hoping for some insight to this. 

 

Thank you!

It should go through but again end of the day it is at the discretion of the CO. Worst situation they may ask you to show some proof of re-establishing your domicile in US.

Your circumstances are exactly why joint sponsors are allowed.  If your joint sponsor is married, make sure the spouse provides an I-864a as well.  Of course, you are the primary sponsor providing your own I-864.

 

Note that you have not applied for any visa.  You've filed a petition.  Your spouse will apply for a visa.  Your spouse will "immigrate" not "we".  A US Citizen cannot "immigrate" to the US.  You just "relocate".
