At visa interview, they tend to ask for SSN of your ex, utility bills of your ex to prove that you are not living with your ex. I think that should be easy enough to prove through the divorce atty. that was representing her ... but I still remember her SSN (even though she took all the imigration papers when she abandoned me.) My 'wife' and I were only 'married' a few months ... Does anyone have any real-life experiences on going through a K1/3 for the second time they could share with me? Thanks to those that provided web links and comments.

(1) I know this forum focuses on imigration from China. Is this information also applicable to imigrating someone from the Philippines, or can anyone recommend a site like this one? (2) In the past I had imigrated a girl from China and we are now divorced. Will there be any complications? G

Hi Jason, I tried to locate the link you posted on the blossoms site, but even after I register it only takes me back to the log-in screen. Possibly you could cut-and-paste it here for everyone to see?

Don, Are you able to point me to any general direction as to where these 'instructions may be found?

Just for the record, I really don't care about whether she gets her greencard or not (i.e., I have no malicious intent against her) -- I'm only confused about what's happened, what's her motive. I guess it's natural to assume the worst, and there is certainly sufficient evidence that suggests motive/concludes that I was used as a catlyst to the American Dream. But the romantic side of me is wanting to hang on to the idea that we were not immediately compatable and that she truly didn't know how to live the American life (or her expectations didn't meet with reality). The main issue at the moment is that I surface from this horible experience unscathed, and the better I understand the venues as to how a person can be scammed, the better prepared I can be for any unfortunate upcoming situations.

I might have some more details later

This is probably the crux of the issue. She did make an official claim of abuse (bogus, but has to be proven in court). So now I'm wondering if this was all planned from the beginning. Her time here was 'all about her' and really didn't show any interest in my life or a relationship.

She came over on a K1 and we married within the 90 days. She was really pushing to get married! Then shortly after the marriage, she was starting to request a divorce!! As mentioned to BobMal, the AOS process has been started but the interview has not occurred yet. What she has lined up I don't know--that's her business at this point. Maybe there were others before me? :-/ She was concerned that I might not provide her a divorce quick enough it seemed. Any pointers on how I would go about notifying USCIS? This part concerns me ... If she WERE to claim abuse, how would that factor into her getting a green card? Would she be granted a green-card if she were able to prove abuse, or something like that?

The AOS has been filed but the interview has not occurred yet. I just mentioned the AP/EAD as a note to let everyone know how far along the process we were. She has the EAD for 1 year, and I don't recall what the conditions of the AP were--was just a letter sent to her name--but I don't recall requesting multiple entries. My main concern/curiosity was if she was able to continue the green-card process (short of getting remarried) without any further involvement on my part (which is what the Chinese fellow had mentioned).

Thanks everyone. One of the details is that she IS trying to nail me as having abused her; fabricated a story. But if I do NOT divorce her then can she still get her green card? It seems from a post above that if I DO divorce her then she can proceed with the green card process, yes? I'm feeling that I was used as a stepping stone :-( . She was asking for a divorce very soon after we were married ... enight, How does all this work? What is a CR1 & i130?

I hesitate to give too many details at the moment. We were married just long enough for her to receive the EAD & AP. During the marriage she was always asking for divorce, not happy. I was told by a Chinese fellow who is well educated "now she has the AP, she can get the green card on her own". I was under the impression that *I* had to be a part of that process! I'm generally quite confused at the moment. I do know that she spend alot of time on the computer researching stuff that really didn't have anything to do with a happy marriage and she always kept a password on her computer as if she had something to hide. I'm trying not to let my imagination get the better of me.

This is my first post here. I'm trying to make sense of what has just happened lately. Just after my wife received her work permit and advanced paroll she has decided to live with 'friends' (says she is wanting a divorce). I'm told by someone that this is all she needs to get her green card; is this true? I haven't the slightest idea of whats going on these days lately. p.s., this is not a prank post. Sincerely requesting your help.
