Divorce Decree Question for K-1

I can't help myself feeling stressed about this! I'm going to try to keep this as short as possible:

 

1. Previously married in the US, registered marriage in a foreign country(Romania) at the time.

2. My now fiance has Italian citizenship and his K-1 interview will be in Naples, Italy.

3. I have a final divorce decree here in the states that I obtained before submitting the I-129F.

4. This final US divorce decree was not registered yet in Romania for the purposes of the Romanian government.

 

Should I be worried? It is something I want to sort out, but I wasn't planning on visiting Romania for that reason as I am already short on time off from work.

I would think the US final divorce decree is enough though? Please help as I have been afraid to ask. :( (I am the US citizen petitioner in this equation.)

No.    Romania has nothing to do with your divorce being valid.

Philippines has the same setup for reporting the marriage ... that part is specific country related only.   You are not a citizen of Romania so it is a non-issue.  ;)  

 

USCIS will be satisfied with your divorce decree

I am actually also a citizen of Romania, forgot to mention. But I am a naturalized US citizen as well. So do I have a problem now?

No.   Not unless you want to get married in Romania.     USCIS doesn't care about Romania   ;)
