    This is your third post on this.
     
    Also, it isn't too smart to use full, real names on a very public internet forum.

    work outside -no issue -many d0
    going back to tunisia to see family -no issue

    The I-129f is primary about you the sponsor. At interview stage it will become about the beneficiary and they might ask him about why he's living in Russia but he can answer that if asked and if not he doesn't need to tell. No need to send a letter explaining everything. Many people life in a different country than where they're born in and interview there.

    I don't think they will care about that stuff. Are you also filing a K2 for his kid? Processing times are definitely taking longer, due to COVID. Chances of approval/denial are same as everyone else: so long as you don't have a crazy criminal history and a history of problems with the US, you should be fine.

    I don't think you need to explain why your fiance is in Russia. Will he apply for his visa at a US embassy in Russia?
     
    You can find info about the processing times at 
    Good luck!

    Sounds like a viable plan to me.  No one knows when the current situation will bet better.  Several posters have done this due to a change in circumstances.  The issues, it seems to me, would be her ability to tie up loose ends in her home country. You will have to file an I-130 since she will be adjusting status from a tourist visa.  As with any Adjustment of Status, she will have to endure travel and work restrictions while awaiting her EAD and Advance Parole documents....good luck in your decision and immigration journey.

    Be sure he gets a  police certificate from Russia

    USCIS offices are not closed. They might be closed for in-person appointments, interviews, biometrics, etc., but they’re certainly processing applications so you should send in your I-129f ASAP.

    You need to differentiate between local offices and service centers.  The only thing that was ever closed were public facing services at both local field offices and local application support centers.  An i129f petition is submitted to a service center which has always remained open
     
    You don't need to concern yourself with local field offices or application support centers until after your marriage and you adjust status

    YES!!    The CR-1 process in not complicated.
     
    This may be helpful (other sections relate to the Philippines but the petition process is the same for all) :  https://www.visaconnection-philippines.com/uscis-petition-process.html

    By the current averages reported by VJ users, the time from your receipt notification of your petition to your fiancee/spouse having his or her interview at the embassy/consulate is about 190 days faster (though processing times can change a lot in a relatively short period of time). And if you have met in person within the last two years but have not married (i.e. you can reasonably make a choice on this), it presumably will take at least some time to meet again, marry, and get your marriage certificate (which you'd need to start a CR-1).
     
    However, as noted above, your spouse is in a much better position when he or she gets here on a CR-1. He or she is a permanent resident right away and so able to work legally, leave the country and come back without a new visa, and get a driver's license (among other things); on a K-1 this will take months (VJ average is about 6 months for temporary work authorization) or even years (green card timelines are highly variable based on your field office; some as little as 3 or 4 months, some can exceed two years). Even if you expect your fiance(e) to not work outside the home (you're retired, you have small children, you have a very high income, etc.) and you have no plans for international travel in the short term the restrictions on a K-1 beneficiary prior to EAD (temporary work authorization)/AP (temporary travel authorization) or green card (permanent residence) can be very frustrating.

    Totally untrue.  You have to just disclose on the application that both of you were previously married, and need to inclode both divorce papers.

    As long as you have a legal document stating that the marriage(s) has been dissolved, you can get a K1 visa.
     
    Some countries have some pretty draconian marriage and divorce laws... the US is pretty easy.

    There is no issue with doing a K1 wiith either side being divorced. I was divorced when I did the K1 for my wife and brought her here to the USA. As long as you both have valid papers showing that you are both divorced then you are fine.

    This is completely untrue. My now wife was divorced before we got married. All we had to do was provide proof that the divorce decree. Provide proof that both you and your fiancee's divorce's have been finalized and you should be fine. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask here. That is what members are here for. There are many members who have been through the process and have first hand knowledge. 
     
    If you have no red flags you should be able to go K-1 -> AOS -> ROC -> Citizenship without a lawyer. Do not waste the money.
