Hi everyone,

I hope this is the best place to come .I am in the process of filing in a petition for my soon to be Wife who is in Nigeria right now.I am Nigerian too.Been living in America for close to 10 years now.

I came here on a visiting Visa and later met and married another Nigerian lady but we got divorced like 6 years ago.

My ex wife filed for me while we were still married and i got my permanent residency through my first marriage.

Over the past 4 years, i met a nice lady whom i cared for and we both fell in love.We got engaged 3 years ago on my trip to Nigeria and i have been to Nigeria three more time to see my baby.

We planning on getting married sometime next year and i plan to file a petition for her to join me here.

I will like some advice on what to do , what to file, what to look out for.?.

I know this can be a long process but all advice is needed to prepare.

Are you a citizen or a resident? K-3 generally is faster for some, but the CR-1 is less work once they get here because you don't have to adjust status, you just get the green card in the mail. You need to apply for the I-130/CR-1 before you can apply for the K-3. Do both and follow which one comes faster for you. Personally lawyers are a waste of money dealing with nigeria. You can save money and fill out paperwork by yourself. Nigeria does not give preferential treatment for people with lawyers. Considering your immigration history, you need to collect and present as much evidence as possible for your interview.

06/06/05 I-130 NOA1

06/14/05 K-3 NOA1

07/08/05 k-3 NOA2

07/22/05 K-3 leaves NVC to Lagos

08/08/05 Hubby picks up interview packet from embassy

11/17/05 K-3 interview (denied, C.O refused to take co-sponsor for k-3)

12/16/05 I-130 NOA2

01/03/06 NVC assigns case number

02/15/06 Case complete (thank you James Shortcuts- only 6 weeks!)

04/19/06 tired of waiting, filed k-3 #2 ( petition is still lost in oblivion)

09/11/06 NVC scheduled CR-1 interview/ on to Lagos (thank God after 7 months of waiting!)

10/14/06 Interview date (success!)

10/18/06 Hubby goes to pick up visa- not ready ( ugh what's going on!)

10/19/06 Visa in hand ( thank you God!)

10/29/06 Together at last :)

Whole process 1 year and 4 months

First you need to decide if your filing before or after marriage K1 being for intent to marry K3/CR1 after marriage, not sure about problems from previous immigration matters you usually dont get much good out of a lawyer. CR1 (if after) i feel is better K1 (before) prob fastest

Ok if you really want help with your SITUATION, why not start off by being honest with these people. It is unforgiveable that you could come on here seeking help for yourself and not really being honest about your REAL situation. If you are playing a game then again shame on you! This process is very real, long, stressful and painful for the people going through it. They take time away from their lives to be a support and a help to others going through this process, and to mock them is REALLY LOW!!!!!! You know that better than anyone what that was like for your FORMER wife. So continue to deceive these people if you like, it will not go well for you. :angry:

After reading you unwarranted comments , i read some of your past post and i will like to clarify this once and for all

I am not your EX- HUSBAND and please never reply me if you will disrecpect me.

Because you EX is a Nigerian does not mean you should start cursing all Nigerian MEN that submitted posts in this Forum..Channel your frustrations to the right directions .
