Will my visa be approved if I have had two other petitions in the past?

Hi guys, I have kind of a unique case and I was hoping for some advice.

 

I am a US citizen and I was approved for two K-1 visas in the past (both from India). The first petition was approved, but withdrawn at the NVC stage since we broke up. The second petition was approved and the visa was granted. She came over to the US, but we broke up during that time and did not get married. She left back to her home country within the 90 days. I filed the first petition in Dec. 2016 and the second one in July 2017.

 

So now I have found a more serious partner and would like to marry her and go the CR-1 route. Do you think I would have any hurdles during the process or the interview process with my new spouse if we did decide to go through with this?

Why the IR-1? You have to be married for 2 years for her to enter as an IR-1. I’m assuming you mean CR-1 as you want her to be here as soon as possible. 

 

Make sure she knows all about the previous beneficiaries.

Yep, CR-1 is what I meant. What kind of questions will they ask?

Well there is a pattern and would be reasonable to assume the CO would want to explore it. So make sure you have a solid case, plenty of face time.

[JFH 12,189]

They are very close together too. In less than 3 years you have decided to marry three different women, all from overseas, and sought immigration benefit for each of them. 

 

That’s going to raise an eyebrow or two.

I have seen 4. And all from the same country. The Philippines sub-forum is where you usually find the most prolific filers.

I keep on thinking I have seen 5... But there certainly have been 4's. The last one who was on 3, just fallen apart had 4 set up just in case.
