Pay ZERO attention to any of the 90 Day Fiancé shows in regards to the immigration process. The only accurate information they have ever given is on the K1 you need to be married within 90 days. It's a great show for entertainment purposes but from someone that has been through the immigration period twice it is completely inaccurate and just edited and changed to entice viewers. :)

I have been through the K1 Visa process twice. My first journey began in 2006 & I surrendered my Green Card prior to filling the I-751

@Brittani Ah really?  That’s what I was thinking and I initially wasn’t worried until I started bing watching 90day Fiancé: Happily Ever After on TLC😂😂. Thanks for the reassurance.

 

@geowrian I’m from/live in Virginia, but my divorce was finalized in South Carolina. No waiting period for it to be finalized. According to the USICS instructions, I was suppose to send my petition to the Dallas Lockbox, which was then sent to California for processing. 

Then your local office is not Dallas Tx and your profile is wrong.

Dully noted. I misunderstood the location for where I initially sent my package, not the USCIS office that I would go through later on during the immigration process.

Oh yeah I’m fully aware. It’s very entertaining and made me a little curious/slightly worried.

My divorce was finalised just a couple of weeks before we filed the i-129F. I consulted this with an immigration lawyer and were told that as long as the divorce is final BEFORE filing the petition, it should be no problem. The petition was approved, but I have still been waiting for my interview, so the lawyer's advice has yet to be proven right. However, I don't feel like it should turn out to be a problem. 

 

Good luck with yours!
