As I understand it, one must be able to support a fiance/spouse at a 125% above poverty level, around $17,500/yr (we don't have children). As proof one must also submit three years of income tax returns. As a recent grad I have not maintained that income level solidly for three years; however, I have recently began a career making much more than that. Will that be a problem (considering my lack of previous income experience)? I read elsewhere one can submit paystubs as well as a letter from an employer stating income and length of employment. Lastly, I make money online via my website and sometimes tutor online. Could such money/income be counted as well? If so, how in relation to salary each year? All in all, since I'm fresh in establishing myself, what might problems might I encounter and how would I overcome them?
