Proof of funds is a minimum, not a sufficient condition. The amount of assets stated as minimum in the guidelines is not nearly sufficient to see a 26-year old who does not seem to want to work (CO’s apparent judgement, not mine) through the rest of his life. Petitioner is working in a probably low paid job 7 years from retirement, but they don’t just want a joint sponsor, they want an immigrant willing and able to support themselves.

That would be my assumption as well. Home heath aides, at least in my area, are not paid well and if they meet the minimum, would not by much. Definitely a concern with the unstable work history of the beneficiary and age of the petitioner. If it is for a relative and not a spouse, it would increase the scrutiny of the likelihood of the petitioner not being able to support long term the beneficiary. A co sponsor would also be unlikely to provide long term support. This makes it a risk for the US Government, that assistance will be required at some point in time.

They are protecting the US citizen for sure.  They see OP is not working, the marriage either never real or unlikely to last given the massive age gap, esp as the woman is older in terms of what is norm of the world (man wanting to have kids and more).


Getting more sponsors doesn't resolve the case - because they don't want to unnecessarily burden US citizens.  OP is needed to look after his father as per him so how is he planning to move to the US anyway...  

Too many red flags

You are right.   Also they gave reason but i am sure that  one of main concerned they didnt explain to him  is age gap. Which they really

doubt  the relationship

OP ,  as beneficiary, asked 
How to fix this?

There is no fix

the CO (embassy) says a joint sponsor will not remedy the situation

Only the USC can change the factors

1. dad needs a nursing home

2  she needs a job (or 2 ) that fits the needed income levels

3  she would have to reapply 

4  OP needs to know the state (city) she lives in to know the work that would be available to him

While you wait for the 2 years for all this to happen,  continue with your education 

 

What did you say when the CO asked what you intended to do in the USA?  you were going to help her take care of her dad

Good point on the inconsistency, if he can’t work because he has to take care of his father, how can he leave him behind?

 

anyway OP you wanted to know how to fix it, the main way to fix it seems to be to get a job and keep at it for a couple of years so that they can see you are willing and able to work. Maybe then they will reassess when you have some decent history of stable employment.

His dad has Parkinson's - not hers

Okay.  What is the best thing to do right now?

The best thing to do right now is have a long, serious conversation with your wife.  It's time to be completely open, honest, and sincere with each other about the future of your relationship and how you can move forward in a positive way after receiving the denial letter.  If you really are in love with each other and want to be together, you'll find a way.  You're not getting your US visa anytime soon, and maybe never unless things change significantly.  You really have three options as I see it based on your post history:

 

1.  You get a job in Jamaica that pays well, keep at it for a year or more, to show that you have some ability to work continuously in a stable job that has potential for a successful career in the US.  Your wife gets a better job or a second job to increase her income, keep at it for a year or more to show that her income is higher than it is now, and more stable.  Submit evidence of this increase in income with a new I-864 a year or two from now and hope for approval.

 

2.  She moves to Jamaica to live with you there and you both work and make a life together and be happy.  This may be the best option since she is a home care provider so she could take care of your father while you work and earn income to support everyone.

 

3.  You end the relationship and move on.

 

Good luck!

We need to determine who is the petitioner and the beneficiary.  Also, what was submitted on I-864, people always put the incorrect number on the document.  Furthermore, If Petitioner has been using Federal benefits, it has been the basis for denial due to public charge.  This has been a recent issue in JA.

then his job is not important 

only the USC 

how is he going to leave his dad if he is primary care giver

and why did he mention his job at all?

very confusing post

Do they seriously deny you if the immigrant doesn't have a good job? My fiancé has had a stable work but only in grocery stores. He was at one for a couple of years, went to a warehouse, got laid off after two months, and went to another grocery store. I would hate to see us denied over that.

 

I really hope that everything works out you and your wife!

My guess would be it's the sum of the circumstances. 

Job hopping isn't uncommon and wouldn't be an issue so long as employment is consistent (rather than the job) and income exceeds the minimum requirement. 

Job hopping + a huge age gap + other factors that don't match up (ie: beneficiary claims to not be working as they "must" look after an ill parent despite applying for an immigrant visa would would take them away from said parent that needs so much nursing that beneficiary can't work?) + Petitioner being almost at retirement age = a group of circumstances that would make most CO's do a major double-take.

There is no sponsorship for tourist visas.

Job/work history and employability can be part of the overall public charge consideration, yes.
