A long time ago Brought ex wife to america using k1 visa forward a couple of years after that we filled aos but missed interview because we had a fallout and separated she went the vawa route to get the green card i dont know if using same aos papers.what i would like to know is if the affidavit of support was void because we didnt go to the interview and and she got the green card using vawa route. I like to fill new papers for new partner but i have no idea what happened with that affidavit of support.

The VAWA case would have been exempt from submission of an I-864.  Were you still married when her Green Card was approved?

The Ex ‘s VAWA “ path” was based on proving evidence and claims of  DV/Abuse. against you. 
She was exempted from I-864 and has been able to freely use public benefits without OP being held accountable/responsible . 
 

Seems like OP brought Ex in on a K-1 but waited “ a couple of years” to help her submit her Adjustment filing..a long period for a new immigrant to be without status/work permit . 
 

My first reaction is to give those who claim vawa’s the benefit of the doubt, which means YOU  / OP were NOT painted in a favorable light as the “ Abusive USC 

 

Spouse “…

 

and unless you / OP argue that your Ex was full of Hot Air..and you are really a Good Guy ..then you are not the ideal candidate to sponsor yet another immigrant spouse. ..regardless of resources for I-864.

You are only committed to the I 134 which is not enforceable.

 

With that history and new petition can expect a lot of scrutiny.

Well that's a valid enough personal opinion and I see where you are coming from.  But...in a spouse visa case, the petitioner's history, even criminal history except for sex crimes against a child are not grounds to deny a petition or visa application.

Since he effectively has not sponsored another person who is now an LPR, the ex wife will not need to be counted in his household size.  In a spouse visa case, he will not be able to delay the "use" of the I-864.

 

Petitioner's are not required to be "seen in a favorable light" or be "ideal candidates" to sponsor immigrants, in order to bring their spouse with whom they have a bona fide relationship to the USA.  Felons currently in prison bring spouses to the USA.

It's not.  Further, the comments to which you replied are irrelevant to either your question or to your ultimate success.  You'll see some extra scrutiny, but probably no delay.

Nothing personal , just addressing the issues at hand. 

 

A record of spousal abuse or other violence will make it difficult for a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident to bring a foreign-born fiance or spouse to the United States.

We do not judge and the AOS was never completed.

This talks about IMBRA and AWA.  IMBRA makes it "difficult" only in that the records must be provided in order to assure the foreign fiancée is "informed" but is not applicable in any way to an immigrant visa case for a spouse of US Citizen.   AWA is not VAWA.

Arrest and court records, but IMBRA is for the fiancée visa process, not the spouse process.  Not applicable to this case.
