Hello everyone,

My fiance and I are here in the Philippines waiting for her anullment. The judge has asked for one more hearing (we were sure the one in August would be the last). I have my I-129F application ready to send in but I just need her anullment papers. I was wondering if I could go ahead and send them in now and tell them she will bring her anullment papers with her to the interview. We have been almost two years working on this and it looks as if this is only a formality now. My thinking is that we would either get to take them to her interview or it would generate a RFE but at least we would have our process started. Any response would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Richard and Mercie

Don't do it !!!

You must BOTH be free to marry when you file the I-129F. This would mean her annulment must have been approved.

Read the instructions for the petition carefully.

Don't send anything yet- she is not single/ free to marry at this time. Your petition would be denied and you'd end up loosing time and money.

Yes, i double down on that. As 129f states, you must be free to marry to qualify for sending in valid application / conditions of application. Get all paperwork signed and dated after any required waiting period.

Dont start the filing if not ready, it will be a big question on the process, not just RFE but the qualification( should be both free to marry) and it takes time to get NSO fixed (NSO annotation)after getting the decree from the judge, and according to you, theres still one more hearing..ive been in this kind of situation, if you want a smooth process, you have to wait till your fiancee's annulment is done..Mine took almost 2 years, my first lawyer ripped me off and i took another one but quiet expensive but only took 6 months...

After the last hearing it will be submitted to the Solicitor Generals office for final decision if and when annulment is granted...then there are still different process after that..like filing th paper with the civil registry office where marriage was done and where her marriage got annulled..then shall be submitted at the NSO office and you have to wait until the changes will be entered into the database. Besides that, with the I-129F submission this annulment papers needs to be submitted too...Correct me if I am wrong VJ's.

You are BEGGING for an RFE later my friend! DO NOT send an incomplete file. You must have all the proof and paperwork when you file. Trust me, my good friend got an RFE for divorce papers and has been waiting another additional 2 months on top of the 5-6 she already waited! This isn't Vegas, don't gamble with your immigration. Good luck.

It is not matter of RFE.

Both parties must be free to marry at the time the petition is filed. If they are not, the petition will be outright denied.

I'm in agreement with everyone else on why you should not send anything in just yet, but I'm also wondering since you are in the Philippines why not wait until the annulment is finalized and get married there? Then submit the I130 instead of I129f once you're back.
