Hi, Pls can anyone help answer this question urgently?

By the grace of God, I shall be entering the USA in less than 48hrs and I read somewhere that the immigration officers at the Point of Entry wld ask how long i have been married to my husband and i dont which answer to give them because:

the embassy made asked us to redo our marriage because the original divorce my hubby had was not acceptable by them and thus made our first marriage null and void. So he had to file another divorce then we got married again, and now i have the immigrant visas and wld be travelling in less than 48hrs and dont know which date to quote.

If i say the first date, then I qualify for the IR1 green card. The second date was just this Dec 2010 and so my green card would be CR1.

It was just that one I-130 petition we did. PLS HELP.

I answered you up in the Moving to America forum. Short answer: give them the second marriage date.
