    Personally I would advise you do a CR1 instead not just because of the prioritisation of spouses. Although it takes longer it is hardly refused..based on the peculiarities of your case (you met him while you still married) k1 might be tough....CR1 has no such requirements for number of times you have met...they just require than you both married in good faith and combine your resources ( which can be done from a distance) eg owning a property together or being on each other's life insurance etc.

    Thank you all for your input which has aided in the decision we are going to take. My fiancé and I have made the decision that I will visit him again before filing for the k1 visa. We are not going the spouse route because it takes long, and there are no guarantees of him getting a visa to visit me here in the US. I appreciate each and everyone of you for your help 😊!

    I wouldn't quite go that far...just because it was not an issue in your case does not mean it won't be an issue in somebody else's case. Specifics matter. Timing matters.
     
    It is not a reason for denial of the petition.
    it is not a sole reason for refusal of the visa. It can be a consideration by the CO if the relationship is genuine.

    Trust me, that isn't an issue.
     
    As I've posted above, we met in the UK while my now wife was still (unhappily) married. She separated soon afterwards, and I visited her in the US a few months after that. Its not an issue with USCIS. It has no bearing on whether the meeting in person requirement is fulfilled, and no bearing on whether the relationship is real or not (in many ways, it tends to suggest its more real - if you were going to make up a history, you'd probably not use such dates).

    USCIS requires that you're legally able to get married at the point you file the k1, not at the point you first meet your partner.

    Question- on your divorce papers it should say the date you separated. (this is different from the date filed sometimes). Example the divorce papers can be filed in March 2020, and they will say couple separated Jan 2020 and divorce final June 2020. So what do yours say? When were they filed and what was the date of separation and the final decree date? 
     
    Technically the requirement for the K visa is showing you met with in the last 2 years. But in order to be approved you need to show its a valid relationship (and not for immigration purposes). Many people date after separating but before a final divorce decree. But you need to step back and look at all the dates on a timeline and see how they fall. Also when did your ex get his greencard in relation to the divorce dates?

    You can still visit him after you file. It's actually better because you're not just meeting him for the purpose of fulfilling the requirement.

    Read carefully the requirements for what constitutes a  multiple i129f filer.  You will discover you are not one

    I don’t think it will be looked at as you misrepresenting any information if you mention that you had been married and submit your divorce decree as well as list your previous spouses name, because it didn’t ask whether you had filed a spousal visa in the past, it specifically says I-129F.

    Kaykay2019 reacted to Sparkle Sparkle in Addresses within five years question on I-129 application   
    Dont think its necessary to be that elaborate. Yes you will indicate the two address and any other address you have lived at  as needed on the forms....answer truthfully that you are divorced and enter the dates of your final divorce appropriately....plead your case that your relationship is bona fide by providing sufficient evidence of time spent together and who you two have been upto  (facetimes,vacations etc)...Totally fill the form I-129F and leave the decision to USCIS. No need to mention you separated and reconciled and you lived here or there

    Kaykay2019 reacted to Penguin_ie in Negative attitudes in the forum   
    I wanted to address the negative attitudes we have seen on the rise recently in the upper/ immigration forums towards those who ask beginner/ simple questions, or have unusually fast or slow VisaJourneys.

    First, there is a tone difference between the Progress forums- which are mostly for support and cheerleading, and the Info forums, which are mostly to have questions answered.   While all our forums are supposed to be welcoming to all and friendly, this is especially important in the Progress forums, which are not to discuss politics, or be negative towards  those fortunate to have their case dealt with quickly, or  critical of those who voice sadness about their own slow progress. These forums are there to uplift eachother!

    Secondly- in the info forums, you may get bad news.  When a question is asked, our members are encouraged to answer truthfully, even if this may not be what the Op wants to hear, because it is important to be informed.  However, the emphasis is still on being welcoming and friendly.  If you need to give bad news, do so gently, and stick to facts; constructive criticism of the Op's plans ARE allowed, but the emphasis is on constructive.  No need to dwell on mistakes (or tell members they should be on 90 Day Fiance- that is a personal attack and automatic suspension), or  illegal actions in the past- instead, encourage and explain legal options for the future.  And ONLY legal options- as per our TOS, VJ does not support, condone or encourage illegal (immigration) actions, and such posts will be removed.

    Ultimately, we are here to help all members, old and new, easy cases and complicated, those who write a fact filled bullet point post and those who are panicking and don't make much sense in their first post. Yes, sometimes questions can be easily googled, or answered via a search of our forums.  But if you feel that way, just scroll past- no need to criticise the OP for asking the question.

    Indeed that is the correct form, you will need to fill it out completely including evidence of your meeting circumstances. You may want to check out the checklist that tells you all the documents that you need to include with the form.

    Kaykay2019 reacted to Unlockable in Is there a specific time that a petitioner need to wait after divorcing to file for the K1 visa?   
    It was only an option up until your ex got his green card. Once the green card is issued to him, the affidavit is "in the books" and can't be removed by you.
     
    You are not the first nor won't be the last to find this out after the fact. We have had a good share of people who were in bad marriages to immigrants be upset that they were "still on the hook" to them after the break up.
     
    Best of luck to you.

    Did you pull/cancel the 864 for him? if not, even if you are divorced and even if he makes more money than you and is not dependent on you in any way, for the purpose of sponsoring another immigrant, you are.

    Please, please, do NOT wait. It will be just waste of time, which I am sure is precious. I know multiple cases including mine when people apply the next day after official divorce decree. Never even comes up at any point including interview. Non-issue. Don't waste your time! Apply immediately. Officers at the consulate understand that divorce takes a long time from the moment people separate. It is normal.
