i havent seen my exwife since we got divorced
i hear you need proof in vietnam thats i am no longer living with her or something.i havent spoke to her since she left and i have court order not to do so.what do i do?

Green,

I believe that regarding ex-spouse, this is a case by case decision. I know for certain that you need to have at least your final decree. I don't know if you need to provide your ex current contact info or not. They did ask for mine. Good luck with your jouney and hope your case will not have any complication.

ok thanks

I would guess you only need a divorce decree. Any thing else would be proving a negative which is just about impossible.

I've been following a few cases on this board, noticing lately HCMC has been asking for A LOT more proof from individuals who has previously married. The way I see it is: if you divorced or your honey had a previous marriage, you need to show them EVERY possible proof to discount ANY doubt which you and your EX may be still together.

How do you do that?

1. Divorce decreed
2. Proof of SEPARATE living arragement
3. Utility bills
4. Cable bills
5. Phone bills
6. Ex's Marriage Certificate
7. Your county court's Single Status Certificate (showing that you haven't been married to ANYONE since the past 5,10,20 years etc.)
8. LAST: YOU CAN'T GIVE THEM WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE.

You will comply to their demands on proofs and evidence upto the point where their demand become impossible and unreasonable, then it's time to get a lawyer to sort through the legal options for you. For more details, you should PM mikee1972, he is going through K-1 and making some progress on his fiance's AP in HCMC.

Good luck!

I agree with chuckandkim completely on this. If you wait to have it blue slip requested from the US Consulate in HCMC, then your just inviting yourself into the 'additional processing' pile of cases - and we all know the varied time frames that can mean.

Sorry to change the subject:

HCMC_STL, we're waiting for updates? How's your fiancee's first month in the USA?

Matt Stevens, where are you? Did you move to North Carolina yet? How about Phuong Anh?

Hi patricks,

We're both alive and well. First couple of weeks have been good. Weather is starting to get a little bit colder, and that has definitely been a factor. Other than that, the sticker shock is wearing off and the food transition is starting to progress more (i.e. Asian to American).

No car driving yet. Remember - I'm adjusting back too!

It took my wife 5 months to get a Driver's License. Now she drives a Rav 4!

We still eat mostly VNs food, my wife is making a big pot of Bun Rieu right now.

One day at a time...........

I thought this would be an issue in my case as I was previously married to a non U.S. citizen who eventually got a green card. I sent my divorce decree but also had my fiance take my entire divorce settlement and my ex-wife's contact information just in case. They never asked for it, only looking at the decree and didn't have any questiosn about that either. We were expecting the "Do you know your fiance was previously married? Where is his ex-wife? Why did they divorce?" line of questioning but it never happened.
