  1. Sorry I meant my ex coming after me haha. I still have a copy of all the documents and will likely include it as part of evidence it was a bona fide marriage.
  2. I have a pretty close family and it's likely that my parents or my brother would be more than willing to sponsor.. fingers crossed!
  3. He's not naturalized, that's too bad on the I-864. My ex spouse is doing well in his career so I hope that doesn't come up.
  4. Thank you for the advice! I was also worried about the "183 day" rule and can't find much information outside of the definition of it.. My boyfriend I think passes the "substantial presence" test now and not sure what needs to be done. Would you happen to have any information on this? Due to his situation he's able to visit me 6 months at a time and moving forward we plan on toning that way down. Also, how does one go about getting married without violating any laws? 😇
  5. Hi all, Long story but I wanted to come back to VisaJourney and confirm a few things because with my previous visa process these forums were a huge lifesaver. I divorced my green card holding spouse (he received his 10 year sometime during it all. It was already processed/approved, he was very fortunate with the timing) because he cheated on me in late 2019-early 2020 and I found out in March 2020. We started dating in 2014, got engaged in 2016, he moved here in 2017 and we had our wedding party in the same year. Our marriage was failing in the 3rd year and we did go to couples therapy but he wasn't honest so it went no where. I did try my best to fix things but in the end he had already "checked out" mentally and it was difficult to reconcile. I do have correspondences, photos, a mortgage, car payments, wedding photos, wedding bills, etc. to prove it was a bona fide marriage. I do have the option to request an affidavit from my ex spouse stating that it was a bona fide marriage. We are not on good terms but I believe he will cooperate. I do have evidence of his infidelity. Not sure if this would help my case but figured I should mention it Last bit I wanted to mention, we separated in April 2020 and officially divorced in August 2020, I have the divorce decree as well. I did a search on Google and found that there is only a 1 year wait time for the petitioner to get married and petition for another K-1. Is this correct? My boyfriend has not proposed yet but we have spoken about marriage and likely to pursue a K-1 visa around 2024. This is just me being proactive :). My boyfriend is Canadian and we got together late 2020. I know I moved on quick, unfortunately my previous marriage was going downhill for a year. After I found out my ex was cheating I could see a light at the end of a very dark tunnel. An answer to the question I hadn't been able to answer for a year as to why things felt different. I am so much happier now and no longer living in a constant state of worrying and self loathing. Thanks for reading and any advice/help you may have!
