From a post in the removal of conditions forum:

"Jeeez, reading these boards, I don't feel so bad, I guess I'm not the only one in town who's marriage went south after the alien immigrant got here... maybe we should have an "unsuccessful marriage" forum within this group to discuss some of the problem we all have run into."

Not a bad idea .....

Not a bad idea. Would certainly give dmartmar a place to hang out and provide his always helpful feedback. :whistle:

Just being snipey there, sorry. :D

But really, it would help people traverse that (quite sad) territory. Lots of specific questions and confusing conundrums in that situation -- it would help to have all the information a bit more centralized.

I agree...a divorce forum would be beneficial. They tend to get scattered across the various forums.

You can find me on FBI

An overview of Security Name Checks And Administrative Review at Service Center, NVC & Consulate levels.

Yes, it will be a helpful forum. One time I read a funny comment: Why does the word "Divorce" apprear before "Marriage" in the Dictionary?

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

Reminds me of another comment I heard: "Marriage isn't a word...it's a sentence" :P

I agree that it makes sense to create a new forum, but I'd recommend that there is a specific reference that it pertains to members divorcing an immigrant or potential immigrant, otherwise it will become a catch-all for petitioner's starting the process who've been or are divorcing.

I sense I might be spending a fair amount of time in this new forum, judging from the vast majority of my posts :whistle:

A divorce forum on a marriage based board. LOL!!!

It freaks out the starry-eyed newbies plenty when they see stories of divorce here. Imagine what will go through their minds the first time they view the forum headings and see that one!!! HAHA!

*sorry I couldn't resist*

It's a good idea as far as keeping the information all in one place though.

rebecajo,

One of things that came to my mind as I wrote my post, and something that I think might be a good thing. My sense is that a lot of posters are blinded by those stars in their eyes, but probably too blind for waking them up to the reality of divorce even when it's put in front of their face.

lal_brandow,

Do you work for the US government writing questions for USCIS and DoS forms?

Yodrak

What about something less ominous such as *Discontinuing/Cancelling Petitions and/or Dissolution Discussion*

It sounds totally wrong, but I think you get my point.

diadromous mermaid,

Yes, good point.

Why is that? Just curious.

:lol::lol: How does it go? "It takes one to know one?"

diadromous mermaid,

Good try, Kemo Sabe. As you know, me speak with forked tongue. Nah, just kidding, I'll give. A cursory look throughout my participation of the past year reveals that I tend to gravitate to discussions of divorce and separation. Hmmm :blush:
