Well I would guess a lot of in person time spent together. You went through the process and got married, got divorced, and now have another fiancé for at least a year. Are both from the same Country, and is there an age divorce, and how long were you actually married and living together. I see you going through Ghana and it’s a high Fraud Country. I would have done a Marriage Visa instead. I don’t think one visit is going to work on this one.  But that’s just my opinion. Good luck

Hello thanks very much for the great response.I was actually married and lived together with my ex for a period of 6-7  months before divorce.No they both do not come from the same country and the age difference between my new fiance and me is 6 years.

woah woah woah... wait sorry, were you still married to your ex-wife as you were dating your current-fiancé?

 

no shade. i just remember my hubby(i mean fiancée) said something about how one of the red flags was having the new relationship while still being married to your previous partner. he may be wrong, and i did not check his sources nor read what he read. he just search everywhere for possible reasons for rejections.

No I was formally and officially divorced(got all supporting documents to back) before beginning this new relationship with my current fiance.

I’m wondering how do you keep meeting all these foreigners and wanting to marry. Do you meet them on vacation? I can tell you a definite huge major red flag is only being married 6 months to the first guy you petitioned for. So he’s Fiance is from Ghana, where was the first one from? You said you already sent in a Petition for Fiance, so that’s done. I would suggest you plan more visits in the meantime, and plan to be there for the interview, even if they don’t let you in, he can show you passport with the new visits, one visit won’t cut it in your case, in fact in a lot of Ghana cases. Luckily for you South African Airways usually have $800 flight specials. I also hope you fronted loaded lots of pictures, chats, oh and may I ask how long was your visit. The length of visits matter as well.

No red flags, I met my fiancé and went to visit her while my divorce was still pending, a week after the divorce I filed the 129F and got approved 2 weeks ago. You just need to be officially divorced before filing the petition and submit copies of the divorce decree.

And this is my 2nd K1 I'm going through, the previous relationship lasted 12 years and we have a son.

Please explain the above in bold red. You say you got approved and he moved to the US and married you but then revoked the petition. How could you revoke a petition that was used?

Make sure you front load the petition.  Ghana is a very high fraud embassy.  They will already use a fine tooth comb on it.  The extra information won't necessarily mean a denial but they will need VERY good proof that the relationship is real.

I literally meant to say my ex got approved and obtained the K-1 visa to enter the States and we got married.After 6-7 months of of living together we divorced.I then contacted USCIS to terminate and never continue the process,and as a result no GREEN CARD was issued to him.

Excellent.  Just expect and be prepared for some difficult questions and you will be fine.

I told my then husband that if I sent my fiancé a Facebook friend request, I'd probably end up marrying him.  My fiance was a person from my past that I was involuntarily separated from.  Because my marriage was basically over and we were living together for convenience and complacency, he told me to go ahead and send the friend request and see what happened.  My fiancé was certainly not trying to break up my marriage and discouraged the idea of us getting together.  If anything, my ex-husband encouraged him a bit.  My ex-husband was dating again before I ever had a chance to go to Egypt to meet my fiancé in person.  I think it is really easy to place judgment on people without knowing the whole story.  I have known my fiancé since before I even hit puberty.  He asked me to marry him when he was just a kid and I didn't take him all that seriously because he was a year behind me in school. After college, I went back to Egypt wanting to maybe take him up on the offer.  But something really bad had happened to him and we didn't get to see each other again until 2016.  I married two different men in the interim because I didn't think I could ever take care of myself financially and I needed to have someone to live with.  I was with them for the wrong reasons and visa versa.  When my fiancé came back into my life, I finally took responsibility and got my on apartment and dared to try to make it on my own.  I knew I had to do that so that I could be with someone because I wanted to and not because I needed to.  And, now my ex husband is happily married to someone who is right for him too.  His life was going nowhere with me.  Not everything is cheating or a red flag.  Sometimes married people are good and honest friends who care about one another's well being and support one another's happiness.  I know that I am very happy to see Steve and Madeline together.  I hope that they will always be together and I am glad that I happened to see my fiancé's name on Facebook not only for myself, but for my ex-husband as well.
