How do you fill out the I-129f when dealing with an annulment?

[Barry and Lynn 1]

My fiance recently got an annulment, which (unlike divorce) voids her previous marriage.   So she is not divorce but single and was not married at all.  Does this possibly cause confusion in this process.  Though she is not considered to have been married the names of her and her children may be changed back to her maiden name.  Should she wait to have this done?  Should I put down the man's name who at one point was recognized as her husband.  Should both last names be included as the names for her children on the form?

My fiancee recently  got her annulment  too and we just filed our K1 packet  in  May. Annullment  in the Philippines is the same as single or annulled, but in a lot of the forms there  in the Philippines  there is no block to check for annulled so single is checked. To answer your question  I think as far as the USCIS is concerned our fiancees are considered divorced, I listed her married name under prior names used and I listed her ex husbands name and date marriage  termimated.

Your fiancee  will have to show her CENOMAR at the interview and on the CENOMAR it will clearly  say that  a search of  your fiancee name produced  one likely match and it will list the bride and the groom and the date of marriage but it will also  state that the marriage  is null and void, so yes treat her annulment as a divorce for USCIS purposes. Also you have to submit her CENOMAR  with your submission  of your I-129F

Thanks that is really helpful.  Is the CENOMAR  is what she can get after her annulment is Recorded at The PSA.   The Annotated Marriage Certificate is going to take a few months.  That certificate she will be able to present at her interview.  The CENOMAR is all I need to send in with my I-129f package.  I think it will work this way.  I have seen others here do that in the past.  I also plan on submitting both her present name and her maiden name, and those two last names for her children as well, and add an attached page explaining the situation.  Do you think that will work?

Yes the CENOMAR  will be available  at PSA once she has all her documents there are about 6 certificates she needs the CENOMAR is the last document she will get. Tell her that when she applies  at PSA for her CENOMAR  to get two or more copies one of the copies she will need to state the purpose for requesting as travel abroad or K1 visa we used travel abroad. She will also need  one that says SSS to change  her SS CARD in fact as we speak my fiancee us at the SSS office. The embassy they deal with annullments  and CENOMARS so I am sure they know the deal. Before her interview  she will need a fresh CENOMAR  anyway. Tell her to FEDEX UR copy of the CENOMAR  so u can apply  and don't forget  the new edition  of the G325 FORM

Once  annulled  her present  name will be her  maiden  name correct the K1 ask for all other  names used i.e., maiden married names
