You're a US citizen - you can petition for a foreign fiancé.

I'm assuming you are free to marry? and Have met, in person, within the past 2-years?

Naturalized or by birth; either one.

You gained your naturalization through a previous marriage to a USC?

Where are you originally from? Where is your fiancee from?

In general there is no problem being divorced and then getting engaged soon after and petitioning for your fiance(e).

As long as you meet the two important requirements USCIS will not have a problem approving the petition. You are a US Citizen, US National or US Naturalized citizen. And you have met your fiance(e) in the two years prior to filing the petition.

However some other problems might arise at the US Embassy interview stage.

Many members have posted meeting their fiance(e) before the divorce was completed and then having to wait for the divorce process to complete before filing their petition. They have been approved and gotten the visa at the embassy.

But there have been occasional issues that have some unusual circumstances that have caused some fiance(e)s to be denied the visa after the interview process.

One member currently with his fiancee in AP (administrative processing) after the interview might be because he was married to an alien fiancee, met his current fiancee, divorced the first alien fiancee and in the same month became engaged to his current alien fiancee.

There are some cases that actually are complicated after a little further study in which maybe filing a petition immediately in succession with the divorce will be frowned upon or even rejected at the Consular stage.

I notice the word "might" in your post. Were the involved parties in this case actually told the previous marriage was a reason for the AP?

If they were, has it occurred to you the relevant issue might be the PETITIONER having a history of filing petitions for alien fiances, rather than a history of previous marriages? Because there is a difference.

England is a easier country than India. What might be a red flag in India might not be so in England. How long have you known her (before and after divorce). If you knew her while you were separated from your (ex)wife that should not count against your relationship, even if it does, it can be easily overcome by showing other bonafides.

If the ink isn't dry on the divorce certificate, and the new fiance is connected in any way to the old fiance or the same marriage broker it might raise eyebrows. I think the best way to gauge the problems one might encounter is to ask yourself, "if I was the consular officer would anything in this paperwork packet raise a red flag to me?" If the answer is yes, be prepared to answer the questions you would be asking if you were the consular officer.

The question in my mind is if you are asking as the petitioner, then you must think its too soon or something else might raise a red flag? Is there something you have left out of your post?

There are a variety of things that can be red flags in cases like these. As suggested by brokenfamily, try to look at your case like a consular officer.

Is your fiancee Indian? Did you know her before you married your previous wife? If so, you might be in for a rough ride, the consequences of which could go far beyond your fiancee's visa being denied. I won't get into why this could be a problem unless, in fact, this is your situation.

No my previous wife has no connection, i was intorduced with my finace recently and we really liked each other, i am sure she is not moving to US to get a better like coz she is doctor in UK.

All i am worried is they raise the flag coz i just got divorced couple of months ago.
