No. You both must be free to marry at the time the I-129F petition is filed.

Kay is right. You are going to need those annulment papers to send with your petition as well.

The question was answered for you twice. Also, I made mention that you would need those annulment papers when you file the petition. This means for either one of you or both of you.

Indeed. It was answered clearly, and it is stated clearly in the I-129F instructions.


Who May File Form I-129F

You may file this petition if:

1. You are a U.S. citizen, and

2. You and your fiancé(e) intend to marry within 90 days of your fiancé(e) entering the United States, and are both free to marry, and have met in person within two years before your filing of this petition unless:
...

5. What Documents Do You Need to Prove That You Can Legally Marry?

...
D. If either you or your fiancé(e) were married before, give copies of documents showing that each prior marriage was legally terminated.
