cancelled 2 K1's

[kanedo 0]

Hello Board I applied for a K1 in 06/07 and then we parted ways in 11/07 and I cancelled that K1 app. I then re-applied for another K1 in 06/08 for a girl that I met in 12/07. Well I just got back from her country and things are different I don't feel the same and dont want to process the K1 further. I think I am going to take it easy for awhile and if I do meet the "right one".... I probably would have to file a K3 huh? Or woud I be able to do another K1 in the future?

I think it would be a good idea to take it easy for a while. Take your time, rushing into things isn't usually the best idea.

Not necessarily. Why not just wait until the time comes, if it comes, and deal with any immigration issues at that time. In the meantime, if you just want to read about these options, do so to your heart's content in the IMBRA forum here.

Probably a good idea. If one is not in such a big damned hurry to get married, one is much less likely to make a poor choice. Waiting a few years before looking, and then dating someone a few years before popping the question is probably not a bad idea.

Wow, two so quickly. I have to agree with the others. Take your time and find the right girl. Remember, you are suppose to be looking for a life partner. Probably a good idea to just relax and see what happens. If you meet someone, then take is slower. Go back to visit her and really work on getting to know her. You need to know that she is comfortable with coming to America in addition to being with you. I can tell you this. Spending money traveling to meet and get to know the right one is cheaper than marrying the wrong one and going through a completely different process known as divorce.

I would certainly have to agree with the other posters...

You have 2 bad experiences where you quickly applied for K1. A pattern has developed (in your case).

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.. Fool me 3 times, well, something along the lines of, take a hard look in the mirror and think of a new approach.

Well quite! Why the constant looking abroad?

Probably constantly looking at broads because he isn't gay? Just a guess.

You cannot file for a K1 anymore as per IMBRA Law. Imbra Law states that you can apply for K1 only once in your lifetime... However you can keep applying for Spouse visas but not K1. K1 is only a one time deal.

This is not true. Read the above comments, as well as other threads in this IMBRA section. Please don't respond to threads unless you're sure of your information.

Please check this... Its very true... If you file the K1 second time.. it MAYNOT be approved

Section 832 (D)(2)(A) of the IMBRA Act reads as follows:

Subparagraphs (B) and ©, a consular officer may not approve a petition under paragraph (1) unless the officer has verified that- ''(i) the petitioner has not, previous to the pending petition, petitioned under paragraph (1) with respect to two or more applying aliens;
