My husband and I are applying for sponsorship for my in-laws, however they have divorced each other once before... 

Do i need to show their final divorce decree? (We cant really find it)

Can i just show their first marriage certificate on which there is a stamp that there has been a divorce between them on a certain date by some judge?

Do you think that will be enough?

We cant get to their country and get that final divorce since its not in the Town but in a court and they are already here (In USA)...

You need the divorce decree

 

If they can’t get a family member to get it for them back home then they will have to return home, get the paperwork, and apply through the consulate for an immigration visa after your petition is approved

My Parents in law are from Bulgaria

Did they authorize someone back home to act legally for them? ("пълномощно")

This might be coming too late but I left a paper like that for both my dad and my sister so I don't have to worry about anything.

I'm not sure exactly how the law works but I doubt just anyone can get a document like this if they aren't family.

Maybe try making the authorization document here with a bulgarian notary and send them over to Bulgaria to someone they trust.

I assume they were visiting so a bit odd to do that.

Yes. They were visiting and we weren't planning on putting their documents together right away... however with the new parent sponsorship removal proposal we decided to do it ASAP.

😊 Your profile says Canada, are you originally from there? 

 

You reference a first marriage, did they marry then divorce then remarry each other or marry other people?

I was born Bulgarian but then i moved to Canada with my family. Married a Bulgarian guy in usa, moved last year. Applied for AOS just last week. My parents in law (my husbands parents) also came from Bulgaria to visit but we decided to sponsor them as well.

Someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think they can stay in the US and adjust their status - at least not until their application date is current. Did your husband fill for them in the past?

Parents do not need to wait for a visa number.
