My Fiancé will be Annuled Sept 20th. Do we still need certificate from NSO?

[Gregory&Dyn 113]

Ive been to Cavite 8 times to attend all my fiancés hearings. The courthouse in cavite is very small and seldom handle annulment cases. I'm not worrired about the annulment because the judge said this will be my fiances last time going to Cavite since we both travel 14 hours by bus from Santa Maria, Isabela. The annulment isn't my concern. Just wanted to know how does it take for the LCR to send the Decree to the NSO. But now I have some good news so I'm nor worried anymore.

You do have good news. Although things may take a bit longer, you are on the right path. Do it right and the two of you will be together before you know it. Stay strong and remain patient. Good luck. Please keep your profile active and continue to update us along the way.

I am still baffled as to how the I-129F petition got approved if you stated that she was/is married, and did not provide the annulment decree with the petition. There are only a few requirements for the petition, and one is that both are free to marry at the time of filing. It would seem the adjudicator dropped the ball on this one, and was leaving it up to the consulate to deny and return the petition to the USCIS.

Almost sure it got approved because OP checked that his fiance is/was single.

Had he check divorced, USCIS would've requested proof of an annulment or divorce decree.

It was approved under false pretense or misleading info provided.

This was my initial assumption as well, and why I asked the OP earlier in the thread if he checked that she was single on the I-129F. He never answered.

OP, you're in total denia She was NOT free to marry when the I-129f was filed, her visa will be denied regardless if the annulment goes through. Now you have to also worry about the fact that you lied on the petition because she was not free to marry. Misrepresentation carries a lifetime ban.

[Rc123rc 528]

Maybe the OP needs to answer the marital status question before anything else and any other advise given. When the I-129F was filed, what was checked on Part 2 (Information about your Alien Fiance) Question 9 (Marital Status)?

Married

Widowed

Single

Divorced

Depending on the OP answer to that question we will know how to respond. The answers have been given in previous threads but going forward if we know the right answer then everyone can be on the same page. If the OP does not answer then the answers will continue to be all over the place.

Here in the Philippines you will signed the marriage certificate on the day you say I do...

[KayDeeCee 4,891]

He would have to mark single to be approved since you cannot be married and file for K-1 fiance(e) visa(though it seems she was/is not currently). I am more interested in whether or not he marked single and that was it, or did he list her previous marriage information in Part 2 #13, and get approved without supplying the annulment or divorce decree. If he never mentioned her previous marriage, then that was false info given(omitted). If he mentioned it but it was approved anyway, then that was oversight on the part of the petition adjudicator.

If he marked single and she was married that is a material misrepresentation and could be alife time ban. He has a lot more to worry about than the date on the annulment papers.

[KayDeeCee 4,891]

You would mark single after an annulment, not divorced, when asked for marital status, since you never had a divorce. Marking single will not be material misrep in and of itself.

True but there is no annulment in this situation. Only filed but not recognized by the courts. You're not single until they do.

Don't end up like this case above.

Filed for I-129F/K1 visa and get denied for fraud of by the willful misrepresentation of a material facts (She was still legally married at times of K1 visa application).

I know how an annulment works. We all know the annulment papers had not gone through yet, which is why I already expressed interest in whether or not he listed her previous marriage on the petition where it asks. They needed to list her previous marriage, and not simply act as if it never happened and she was single all along.

[belinda63 2,981]

My understanding is she is saying she thought she was never married because she didn't sign the paper. I don't know anything about marriage in the Philippines but I find it hard to believe you could go through all the process and not think you were married. But anyway from what he is saying she is saying is she never knew she was legally married.

[KayDeeCee 4,891]

It is hard to believe, and I am sure the USCIS and DoS would feel the same.
