I filed a K-1 Fiance Visa for the first time in 2008 which was processed and approved within approx 7 months with no issues/delay at all; My fiance arrived here at LAX from The Philippines in June 2009 and we married in August 2009. Everything was in good faith but unfortunately things happened and the marriage did not work out and after year trial separation we decided to divorce in 2013.

I met another lady in The Phils and filed another K-1 Fiance Visa in May 2014 and it was approved by Nov/Dec 2014 and she was to spend Christmas and holidays there with her family before coming here to the US in January 2015. As I was preparing for her departure/arrival in early Jan I received lots of evidence (luckily a mutual friend of ours in Las Pinas discovered this and warned me BEFORE I bought her ticket) that she had plans to abandon me at some point shortly after her arrival to stay with an aunt she has in New Jersey and entertain multiple American men that she was communicating with and I obviously knew nothing about. Even though I never really did cancel anything (She knew better at this point to not even attempt it) she never did come here and the petition, approval, visa, etc. eventually expired.

I understand that because I have 2 previous filings, I need to file a waiver? Is this waiver still necessary even if my first filing was over 10 years ago (Filing was exactly 10 yrs ago now however approval is not quite 10 yrs ago as of yet)?

I would like to know how this is done; If there is a form for that or I submit a cover letter or what- Also, what are the odds I will be approved or denied?

Thanks in advance for your help!

You won't be denied, I doubt anything will be mentioned in the interview at the Embassy in Philippines,  they tend not to care about past filings.

 

The waiver is just a letter stating you are requesting a waiver for multiply filings, I did one and found the wording here on this site.

 

Last I checked a K1 and CR1 was taking about the same time, plus if you do the CR1 no waiver needed and it's cheaper process, but you would have to get married more than likely in Philippines.  

Just when you think you have TDS eradicate,  a new case shows up.

Thanks Chris; Where did you see the wording within the site?

I would take advice from @Chris Duffy about multiple filings because he has done a couple now.  Notice I am not knocking you Duffy just the truth.

No Worries

 

I have no issues with doing 3 visas.  I wouldn't surprise me to divorce and do my 4th petition in the next few years.......

Some guy had done one and told me how to do it, he was a VJ poster.

 

If you send me a message here with your email address, I will scan my waiver and email it to you.
