AOS from K1 fiancee visa

[MaxxDy 3]

Hello everyone. I know by posting here will be my best and reliable option of getting a definite and true answer. So we are already marries through K1 fiancee visa and we already submitted the AOS and my wife had a biometric already last November 30th. Our case status still says actively reviewing and Our records show nothing is outstanding at this time. 

 

I am a US Citizen and I am disabled but still currently working 40hrs a week and annual income is $27,000 a year. However due to my serious medical health condition this past few months I am not able to work completely 40hrs a week and then I just started my approved continuous leave through FMLA monday of December 13th up to January 31st as my body has been suffering more pain and weakness due to my serious health medical condition and possible I might extend my continuous leave depending on my body condition. Now I am not sure yet if I can be approved also on my short term disability on my work insurance to get paid while I am on leave. So I am not sure how can I pay my bills or sustain our needs and necessities. I know as a petitioner we are obligated to support our beneficiary but this is unforeseen serious medical health condition of mine.

 

Now my question is, if in case I would try to apply some grants from the government like food stamps is it going to affect my wife’s AOS application to be denied? 

 

Is there any kinds of grants that you can help and suggest me which one I can get that will not affect our AOS application?

 

We are currently living and located in Morristown Tennessee.

 

Just today I got approved on the EBB program of Straightalk service by showing my three months pay stub that I am only earning less than 40hrs a week. I hope this is not going to affect my wife’s AOS application by me receiving this EBB program?

 

Thank you so much I hope somebody can help me and guide me and gave me a definite and exact and true answer here as I am not originally from here in United States so I have a very little knowledge about here in United States so I am asking a guidance here. God bless.

I'm not 100% sure so don't quote me on it, but I believe the EBB doesn't count as public charge, but the food stamps do.  I would absolutely get a joint sponsor if you can, I have a feeling the government sees it as a black/white situation can you support your fiance/spouse or not.  Regardless of the reasoning behind why or why not.
