I think this a very unique perspective on this, thank you for that. However, I do think there is more to it.
They did say it was approved, it's just not "printed out" yet.
That being said, assuming it will get issued without a problem, would the first option be viable still? That's the question.
Thanks.

Hey Everyone,
 
I'm new to this forum and I'd like to get some insight on our case issue.
 
Basically, we were engaged to be married and after a long long time waiting on Administrative Processing after the visa was approved (more than 2 years) with no hope for the visa to be issued, we decided to get legally married a few months back and stay in Egypt.
 
A few days ago I received a call from the embassy saying your K1 visa will be issued after you send a new medical and the passport.
Here's my question:
Before getting the new medical, or sending my passport,
1. Should we legally divorce first then continue with the process and get the medical and send it to the embassy? I'm thinking that this will technically make us "free to marry", and avoid us the issues with misrepresentation. Is this true?
OR
2. Will we need to simply send a letter to the embassy to withdraw instead and reapply for a CR1/IR1, and wait another year, or more again?
 
Please, help us find the proper answer to this dilemma.
