I'm underwhelmed.  Advice:  You really, really don't want to wave your money sack at Mideast expats. I crossed 6X back in 2011.  I don't check ratio anymore.  It's somewhere north of 30X.  To me, 7 digits with greater than 10X the guideline amount in the bank(s) are enough.

 

I did not see it clearly defined in your post however I believe the link I posted clarifies the accessibility of and type of assets.  YES:  you are correct.  Use of assets is not unlimited in nature. 

As you are aware I have had to sell asset affidavits twice at two different IO counters and concur that the information in the link seems to be aligned with what the IO is looking for at the counter.

An asset is considered "liquid" only if it can be reasonably sold within a year WITHOUT UNDUE HARM to the sponsor or their family.  So, for example, equity in a primary residence is not "liquid" and 401k funds aren't really either.  Cash, mutual funds, stocks are, and investment property can be depending on circumstances.  These discussions are intended to focus on the circumstances of the original poster.  Posting about completely different circumstances is not "helpful".

Lots of misinformation here.  First, there are no "cosponsors" in spouse visa cases.  You MIGHT need a "joint sponsor" if your husband doesn't find a job before the interview.  More than likely, this

Do not worry. Since he lost his job after you submitted all the documents it wasn't your husband's fault. Do be honest and let the CO know about it and if possible see if you can gather any co-sponsor

This might fall under unless the CO asks you if your husband is still employed, I wouldn't be in a big hurry to bring it up. But CO might ask if he still works, then of course don't lie, say he lost h
