You have the information to get what you need.

That Divorce Decree is on file in the State and County you stated here. GO TO THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE. where they filed for Divorce. It is there on record.

What he will need is: Get a Copy in Full. A Seal and Stamp and Initial by the County Clerk DATED. About $5.00 US dollars is the charge. He should call ahead to pull from the Archives of Records. Not a big Deal.

A Copy is Fine to Fax and show.

LOL. I started this process with an Attorney and this one of her mistakes. I got a RFE for this problem as well. What I meant to say was A scan is OK as well as a Fax for The Dissolution of Marridge of the Documents. Be sure all pages of the Divorce Decree are include. That Stamp and Seal from the Courthouse is of the Upmost importance.

He does not need a copy of every document in the decree. He needs the document with the court stamp on it. We submitted ONE document to the embassy in Thailand. I don't know if they will accept a faxed or scanned copy so the USC should ask. This doc will be needed at the AOS stage anyway and I know they wont take a faxed copy.

You only need a copy for the USCIS service center, so scan or fax should work as long as it is clear and legible. You should send a copy of your entire divorce decree. Some people have used only the page with the judge's signature and court seal and been fine, but others have received RFEs. To be safe, I would send in a copy of your entire decree, especially since this is a response to an RFE already.

The consulate can ask to see an original of everything you sent with the petition though, so when the USC petitioner gets a new copy from the court, he may wish to get more than one so he can supply one for your K-1 interview later.

Divorce decree is not needed for AOS, just your new marriage certificate.

My husband has submitted the doc to USCIS as you say. The embassy looked it over and approved my visa.

At my AOS meeting we were given an RFE that said to submit the original doc with the judges signature and court stamp. It took contacting the court in another state, paying with certified funds and two weeks to get it. The whole thing set us back at least a month.

Yes if you have an interview, the IO can ask for originals of anything in your file. They are not typically asked for though, since the divorce decree has been dealt with and taken care of with the I-129F petition/K-1 visa approvals. A copy of the divorce decree is not a requirement of the I-485.

We were surprised to find we had to do it again but of course couldn't argue with the officer. She had what he submitted to Thailand on her desk as we talked.

Thanks

I have seen others asked for things that were not actually required with the I-485 when they had an interview. I am not sure why they single some people out for certain things while the majority has no such issues. Maybe sometimes people are just unlucky to catch an IO having a bad day or they really want their supervisor to see they are doing a 'thorough' job.
