Hello Folks:

 

I happen to have a Fiance' Visa I have started.   Being a resourceful entrepreneur; I was thinking of renting a room out in my house to a single lady in order to earn a bit of extra pocket change.  In anybody's opinion; is this a bad idea, which could come under scrutiny by USCIS or the US Embassy and impact an applicants Fiance' Visa?

 

Thanks

There is remote possibility of this becoming an issue in the future.

What's the long term plan? Are you going to have this renter in your house when your fiance comes over to the US? You know USCIS, if they don't trust the marriage, can always knock on the door and check who lives in the house? They are somewhat old school and may be surprised by arrangement.

Similarly, this is something I would discuss with the fiancée, is SHE ok with you having a roommate? is she ok with having a roommate when she moves to you?  Culturally, and personally, it can be totally acceptable, or a big absolutely not.  Money is important, people [yourself, your fiancé, and the roommate] are more important.
