some consulates dont care as much as others. perhaps yours is one of those.

 

some are obsessed about it and most just follow the guidelines, which require CURRENT income verification ;)

Is Canada one of the consulates? That’s sort of surprising to me. With the U.K. my fiancé was asked a total of 3 questions about how we met, what I did for a living (no $ questions) etc. They didn’t ask to see a single document. We joke now because I’ve actually had longer chats with the CBP people here just coming back into the US as a citizen who was traveling internationally.

London tends to be quite lenient with sponsorship.

Canada is pretty typical. They do want to see evidence of current income, not just past years.

Is all the paperwork complete and ready for interview based on prior information??  

 

If yes, I would just go to interview with old information and hopefully get your visa.  My wife was never asked about my work or income.   She had all the paperwork ready several months before the interview.   If they don't ask don't offer the information.

Thanks for all your advice guys! I'm definitely more calm today and hopeful going forward. We are pretty sure we can get a sponsor and will get one regardless if he gets a job or not just in case (he might have to accept a lower-paying job for the meantime anyhow).  Glad to hear about other experiences. If all else fails, I will re-book my interview but I'm hoping I won't have to! 

 

Thanks again :D
