RFE PROOF OF LEGAL TERMINATION OF MARRIAGE

[r9dblanco 1]

Just got my hard copy of my RFE. They listed 3 subjects they need more evidence on.

2 of them not a big deal(Photos and G-325A Request).

The third is a little more difficult.

It is the following:

PROOF OF LEGAL TERMINATION OF MARRIAGE:

Submit proof of the legal termination(s) of MY WIFE NAME.

Such of proof would normally be a final(absolute) divorce decree, death certificate, annulment, etc. In order for the legal termination of a marriage to be considered valid for immigration purposes, it must have been registered with a civil authority. Note: A Divorce Nisi is not considered to be evidence of a final divorce.

First of all, she has never been married before and I doubled checked all the boxes for marital status on the forms and they all are marked correctly with either "single" or "never married" and in the sections for previous spouses, we wrote "none". I am really confused why we got this part of the RFE. I cannot get proof of legal termination of Marriage because like I said before, my wife has never been married before.

If anyone has had this happen or have suggestions about it I would appreciated it.

Help please.

Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

I'm interested to know the answer to this as well.

Regarding the G-325a/pics, did you submit those with the i-130?

Maybe Tier 2 support at USCIS can assist you with this. They will tell you what you need to do.

Are you absolutely sure you filled out her details correctly?

Sometimes when you write "None" in a field, a less than stellar adjudicator will think you literally mean the previous spouse's name was None. It's a rare occurrence, but it has happened before. A lot of people write "None" in the middle name field and end up being referred to as John None Smith. Scary, but true. It's a shot in the dark, but that's all I can think of if you definitely did the forms right.

Call and speak with a supervisor and explain your situation or try to get some proof stating that your wife has never married before.
