IMBRA for multiple K-1 filing

[renecherubs 18]

hi everyone. i would like to ask for any advice regarding our IMBRA RFE. we received our IMBRA RFE yesterday. we are confused because my fiance filed a CR-1 for his wife now ex-wife in 1998. he didn't file for K-1 petition before except this time for me. does we need to file for request for waiver. does this IMBRA applies to us? pls help us.

Oh, he probably missed out in filing a written request, in the form of a cover letter for his I-129F petition on YOU, for an IMBRA waiver.

But it doesn't make sense, as there's a 2 year window, as well - so perhaps he has other women prior to you, that he filed an I-129F for?

*** not a K-3 visa topic, moving to K-1 visa forum, for now ***

If you got an RFE for it, don't question it just do what they want. The rules for IMBRA seem to be left up for adjucator interpretation. Send in a written explanation, including of any woman he filed for and attach whatever supporting documentation you have and sign and date your explanations. The IMBRA law was written to protect foreign women from abuse by USC men so in that respect it may not matter whether its CR1 and K1. Good luck.

thank u so much for the sound advice. we're doing exactly that. we already have a request for waiver and with supporting documents: previous marriage certificate, NOA2 of the CR-1 petition, the NVC letter and the divorce decree. is there any other important document we need to submit together with these documents to solidify our claim that he didn't file the K-1 petition before?

we're totally grateful for your advice. we didn't know what to do. thank u sooo much.
