I-129f and g-325a questions

[Shiloh322 0]

I'm filing for a K1 Fiance Visa for my fiance in Malaysia. We're filling out the above forms at present. My fiance was not legally married to her first husband but just had a traditional Indian ceremony. Therefore there are no records of them being married or separated; he left her. My fiance then married another man who she was legally married to but he filed for divorce and now they are legally divorced; we have all the documentation for this. My first question is, should we list the first marriage even though they weren't legally married and no documentation of marriage or divorce? There were children by the first marriage but they have either died or are out of the house on their own and my fiance has no legal responsibility for them.

My second question is about filling out form G-325a. We're required to list my fiance's Mother and Father, their date of birth and death. We have no record of either or what these dates are. My fiance's relationship with her mother and father was very difficult so she has no knowledge of these dates or even where to find them. Will this lack of this info cause problems for us in the petition process? Should I seek an immigration lawyer in my case? Thanks for any help you can give.

If she was not legally married, then you would not list it as a marriage. Just provide the information on her legal marriage and copy of her divorce decree. As for listing the children, I am not sure, to be honest. You could list her children, and if they are deceased, leave the address part blank and perhaps explain they are deceased in the cover letter or an attachment sheet. The children listed on the I-129F are not required to apply for anything later and does not mean they will accompany her.

Any information not known about the parents, just put Unknown. If they are deceased, put deceased where it asks for their city and country of residence.
