Newbie here… Greatly appreciate having been advised this site by a friend as I navigate options.
If a U.S. born citizen is married and divorces (in the U.S.), is there a timeframe before they can then apply to sponsor a non-U.S. citizen via means of a K1 spousal visa application / or marry their non-U.S. citizen partner abroad?
I see lots of discussion regarding the 5 year rule should you wish to re-marry having obtained a green card via an initial marriage, but nothing pertaining to if a U.S. citizen has to wait after divorcing another U.S. citizen before they can re-marry with a non-U.S. citizen partner.
