On the legal point of view, any marriage that is conducted while another legal marriage subsists, such marriage is void. Therefore, there is no marriage that exists between you and your husband. All you need to do is put up a letter to the Marriage Registry that your earlier marriage was done in error, that you were ignorant of the law that such marriage while another subsists is void. You should attach the old marriage certificate between your husband and her estranged wife and also the divorce decree. Once this is done the authority will re-enlist you for a new legal marriage and you will obtain a new marriage certificate. This is an ignorance and irregularity that can be cured with just an ordinary letter of information to the marriage registry. Good luck.

 

but it is legal under Islam and Morocco law where she lives / so she needs a Moroccan lawyer to dissolve the issue/Morocco does accept certifcate from another Arab nation without questioning if the 1st wife approved / basically if she registered the marriage when she returned to her country of Morocco,  it is considered married but the US does not recognize it as such

this couple is not well informed on US laws

How was she able to register the marriage without the first wifes approval?

You don't "justify" anything.  You simply tell the truth, just the way you did in the first post you made in this topic.  With regard to US Immigration Laws, you are NOT MARRIED to the petitioner. (Not legally married.)  You CAN become legally married now and start over with a CR1 visa process.  How you manage to do that in Morocco, is a matter of Moroccan law.

 

Some things are simple.  Sometimes actions complicate things.  In YOUR eyes, you are married.  For US Immigration, you are not.  Getting married and starting over is your only option.  You are definitely one of those couples who is not married enough for a spouse visa AND "too married" for a fiancee visa.  Yes, that's a real thing and you are it.

So i devorce and marry and then apply again and with the new application  i write letter explaining everything  regarding my situation?  Is this right

Whether you need to divorce or not is a matter for the authorities in the governmental jurisdiction where you will marry.  For US Immigration purposes you are considered NOT married to the person you refer to as your current spouse.  In the context of US Immigration, you do not need to divorce that person.  What Morocco or any other country in which you might consider getting married requires, is something to inquire about with those local government officials.

A very brief explanation is probably in order, but not absolutely necessary.  Don't think in terms of justifying, no matter how tempting it is.  A couple sentences stating facts will do.  They already have the information in the previous filing.

So in the UAE you do not require the Wife No1 approval?

Well seems there is a difference in requirements so even more stresses the need for competentent legal guidance.

I will prefer like I stated in one of my previous posts that this statement of facts should come in form of an affidavit since it is under an oath and under the heading of a court of record. The statement will carry more weight.

You can do that if you want, but your statement need not "carry weight".  It is only for clarity.  "We thought we were legally married per US Immigration policy but now we know we weren't.  We are now."  There, I said it for you in two short sentences.  They already have the facts of the past marriage/case/petition/visa denial in their own files.
