Previous k1 visa, no divorce, now CR-1- problem?

Well YAY for the divorce happened. And Boo for husband being a D$@K ummmm (not nice person) and not sending copy of divorce decree. At least I hope he said where he filed so she can get a copy.

Now for my PSA to anyone reading this. Please please get your affairs in order and ducks in a row before filing. I have had 3 friends have to deal with this.

One went got married in his country comes back getting ready to file and Whoa nellie she is still married to 1st husband. Now she has to fie for divorce and wait the 6 month waiting period than remarry 2nd hubby than she can file. OMG

Next one getting ready to marry getting her things in order and OMG still married (its been 8 years since she last saw him and he is in prison and won't give divorce) now her relationship and upcoming wedding all blown apart.

Next friend (this is like the OP's sort of) goes gets married files and they say nope u still married she says no seems the date and the filing and all that was after the fact. fast forward almost 3 years later all fixed he comes on a K1 (even though they married years back and it was legal) and phew all is well.

Just please do your due diligence. OP your friend will have to explain why she just forgot that she got married. It doesn't matter whether she thought it valid or not (why would she think so anyway). She signed a document of marriage. She lied on a government form and said she was single. This isn't a case of "what goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas".

She needs to explain and explain for real and throw herself on the sword of truth. Move the interview. Get copy of the divorce decree. Have a new fresh form with divorced checked and a very good honest sorrowful explanation.

The truth always wins in the end.

wow a nice one.. thank you very much....i hope everything will be come out good. ty

I do agree that folks need to get their affairs in lien and can never eunderstand peopel that are not getting divorce immidiately after the breakup of a marriage.

I do disagree though (an anomally and I hope i don't have many of this with you - lol) that the Ex is responsible for hand holding the former Wife though the divorce proceedings. She is responsible for following up on her divorce and getting a decree in hand.
