Budapest

Thanks.

I married my ex-wife in the US, we got divorced in Hungary. I have the Hungarian divorce decree in English and Hungarian. Will USCIS take issue with this? Do I have to 'register' the divorce in a US court? Another issue is that for some odd reason the divorce decree has no signature or stamp, it is 'electronically' signed with a tag embedded in the PDF but it might not look official to a bureaucrat. Has anyone had a problem with their divorce paperwork being rejected because it didn't have a stamp or something?

Online I've seen current processing times reported as 14-15 months, 7-10 months, 12-46 months (?), etc. Wildly varying estimates. Visajourney's own info says ~500 days, but is that the average for both green card petitioners and US citizen petitioners? I am a US citizen. What is the ACTUAL current wait time, from start to finish, for a US citizen married to a foreign spouse?

I'm a US citizen, wife is a Hungarian citizen. I am domiciled in the US but living with her in Hungary for the time being. We will submit the IR-1 application but since it is taking like 14-15 months (from what I've read), we would like to enter the US sooner. Per the B-1 rules she can stay up to 6 months in the US. Based on the usual timeline, it seems like we will be in the US when it comes time for her consular interview, back in Hungary. Instead of flying all the way back to Hungary, just to do the interview, and, I guess, wait a few more months for approval, will USCIS let her do the interview in the States? And yes, I understand that you cannot enter on a B-1 visa with the intention to stay. She has ties to Hungary.

To clarify, we did live together, but we lived abroad. We returned to Europe when she got the green card as our plans changed. In the end, we never moved back to the US. We did for about 9 months, but then we moved back to Europe together.

I am a US citizen and my foreign ex-wife received the green card via the K-1/AOS process in 2019. A couple years after that we got divorced, at my request. I'm in a new relationship with a Hungarian citizen (I live in Hungary too), and am going through the same process all over again, although this time with CR-1. Yes I know it's a little ridiculous but what can I say, that's life. Anyway, will USCIS delay or even reject our application because this is the SECOND foreign citizen I'm marrying and getting a green card for? I should mention that my ex-wife lives in her home country, we never even really lived in the USA together.
