You can use the beneficiary's assets.

 

You cannot use your beneficiary's income.  A K1 recipient cannot work in the US when they arrive, even remotely.  They will need to marry, then file at least EAD (form I-765) and wait for approval, or AOS (I-485), whichever processes first.  For the vast majority, the EAD will be approved ahead of the I-485.

Thank you for taking your time to respond, but it didnt answer the question. Do we declare/put that she has a full time job and an asset in those table yes or no?

I do not understand the confusion.  When I said you can use it, it also means you can declare it.   When I said you cannot use it, that also means you cannot declare it.

 

What was your interpretation of my response?

They say to put zero because this form is about petitioner assets primarily. Description says "assets available during the stay" You brought up "working full time" Beneficiary won't be working full time during the stay, not right away, so that part is not relevant. You can push cash assets beneficiary has but it likely won't be looked at or considered. Petitioner/sponsor is who need to provide tax transcripts as evidence of their income.
