Happy New Year to VJ members/family. May this year be the messenger of Joy, Blessing, Peace, Prosperity, Fulfillment, Good health and Happiness for each and everyone of us! My fiance has a lot of debt on him that over $20,000 and he wanted to file Bankruptcy. This debt owes during and after his previous marriage. He wanted to file bankruptcy now that our I-129F is on process so that I won't have this debt on me by the time we married. My question is: If he file for bankruptcy now,does it describe him that he cannot support me while I'm in the US? And would it cause visa deny? If he doesn't file bankruptcy now this debt would be on both of us when we get marry. What should we do? He do not want me to be like he is because his credit is already messed up. Pls advice needed, explanation in details would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to you all.

I don't have any advice on its bearing on your K1, although I suspect that is based on income and assets alone.

However, 20,000 isn't a lot of debt and can be paid off by two people working in a reasonable time. Declaring bankruptcy may affect your husband's chances at some jobs in the future, if it were me I'd rather try and be frugal and pay it down ASAP.

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

Even when you get married the debts may remain his, since it existed before you. Some things do not have to be comingled. I agree that $20k is not a lot and probably doesn't warrant bankruptcy, but of course it depends on the type and your income, etc.
