The I130 instructions clearly state that if you gained your LPR status through marriage, you must either be a US citizen or have held your GC for 5 years minimum before you can petition for a different spouse 

 


Who May Not File Form I-130?
You may NOT file Form I-130 for a person in the following categories:
5. A spouse, if you gained lawful permanent resident status through a prior marriage to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, unless:
A. You are now a naturalized U.S. citizen;
B. You have been a lawful permanent resident for at least five years;
C. You can establish by clear and convincing evidence that you did not enter the prior marriage (through which you gained your lawful permanent resident status) in order to evade any U.S. immigration law; or
D. Your prior marriage through which you gained your immigrant status was terminated by the death of your former spouse;

 

This sounds ike your situation 

No appeal possible 

Reapply when you have met the criteria

Ooops wrong thread, you need to wait until you are eligible.

What would be the basis of your appeal?

You can file an I-290B. The filing fee for the appeal is $675, and you are highly unlikely to prevail.

 

As others have stated, you should wait until you are eligible to file.

You need to proof that USCIS made an error however the instructions are clear and you need to be a green card holder for 5 years. You haven't met this criteria therefore you'd lose an appeal.

The issue wasn't whether your previous marriage was real.

In your specific case, the issue was that you had to wait 5 years after becoming a LPR to file the i-130.

 

You didn't meet that criteria, so your appeal will be denied.
