Why? To stop people marrying for a green card, divorcing when they get it, and then remarrying and bringing over someone they always planned to bring over.

How do people fall in in and out of "love" with someone so fast... seems to happen a little too often, especially when comes time for them to then want to migrate their new love from another country...........

This seems to be a very common theme. Everyone has their own agenda and there are probably a lot of reasons why, but I think the reality of leaving everything behind, moving to a new country and living with someone for the first time may make people change their mind.

 

I face the opposite problem. I had so many questions and wanted to take things slow but kind of wished we started the process sooner. Hindsight is 20/20 I suppose.

To be clear, nobody has suggested that you intended to bring over somebody else the whole time, or otherwise engaged in fraud.

We're just describing that the reason for the 5 year restriction is to help prevent fraud. Good intentioned people pay the price for the bad eggs.

Are you following the other thread you started? The uscis rule was posted there for you by another poster.

Just to reiterate since there are two threads which may add some confusion for the OP...you're going to have to wait a little bit before you can sponsor your new wife:

 

(M)     Marriage within Five Years of Obtaining LPR Status     .    

  Section 204(a)(2)(A)     of the Act generally prohibits the approval of a visa petition filed by a lawful permanent resident for a spouse within 5 years of the date on which the petitioner became a LPR if that LPR obtained his or her residence status through a prior marriage.The LPR can overcome this prohibition if he or she establishes by clear and convincing evidence that the prior marriage was not entered into with the purpose of evading the immigration laws, or that the prior marriage ended through death.     8 CFR 204.2(a)(1)(i)     specifies the type of evidence which the petitioner must submit to meet the clear and convincing standard. If the petitioner falls within this restriction and has not submitted the requisite evidence, send him or her a letter explaining the deficiency and requesting additional evidence. If satisfactory evidence is not submitted within 60 days (or 120 days if the petitioner has requested and been granted additional time), deny the petition.
