Starting process to bring my boyfriend to the US

[Carla V 43]

Check in the forum of your country for specifics in the interview and Consulate, but you can read the steps of the process in the general forum for K1 visa.

Is his divorce final and does he have all this evidence?

I'm not an expert so I just wonder if anyone knows if the fact you were already in a relationship with him, and pregnant by the time he went to the interview and present a case to immigrate with his wife to live in the US have a heavy weight in the result for your case.

I think if/when the officer at his next interview realises you got pregnant while he was married to this other woman who also happened to be a US citizen, they may believe your boyfriend to be going through different women to try getting into the US, especially since the pregnancy happened so soon after the first visa rejection. It makes it look like the first wife was an object who lost its use once the visa was rejected, so he dropped her and found another to try again with.

The above opinion is not my own, but the officers at the consulates take dim views to, well, everything. Especially in high-fraud countries where they actively look for reasons to reject K-1 visas in seemingly legit cases.

You will need to prove with paperwork that you have both found your true loves in each other and that the first marriage ended due to normal marital breakdown, not just because immigration benefits could not be procured from the first wife.

Considering he was rejected for a CR/IR-1, I don't hold out hope for the K-1, but if you don't try then the answer will always be no.

He married in 2009 and went to the interview in October 2010...I met him January 2010...he went to the interview because this person wanted him to come to the US but he was not in love with her

So he did marriage fraud to get to the US.

The timelines suggest that the OP was already pregnant when he went for the interview. If the consulate do the math, they will realize that he was trying to get a visa through marriage even though he had already got another US citizen pregnant. Who he is now trying to get a visa through!

I would say it looks unlikely that he will get a visa - even if you get married. It looks like he is trying to get to the US and get a Green Card through marriage to a US citizen. This may not be the case with your relationship but it is certainly the way it will be viewed by the interviewing officer - even if it were not at such a stringent country like DR.

You face an uphill struggle.

That is correct, just to mention we did have a relationship it was not a sex thing. The person he was married with was living in the US most of the time she did not travel to the Dominican Republic only twice while they were married. Thank you!

Wait, you said you had a child with him but it was "not a sex thing"? There had to be some sex thing involved. He was married and his wife "only came twice to see him" while you were having an affair with him? Putting all of that aside you must refer to him as your fiance and follow the K-1 guide.

You will have an uphill battle based on the evidence... Prepare yourself
