Hello
I came to America with f1 status and met a guy both of us from Africa but different countries in which we got married. He was a USC while I was f1 status so when we got married I became a LPR. 2 years while I was removing conditions he went to his hometown in Africa and met his high school sweetheart and they started having an affair. When he came back to America our phone bills and everything was running up since he was keeping in touch with this woman247. He never told me this but waited for me to remove conditions and told me he's very sorry he used to love me but he has rekindled with his high school sweet heart and she is pregnant. He divorced me and went ahead to file for this lady to come n join him here with his baby leaving me in extreme shame. I had to move from the state find a new place n move on with my life. After 2 years I met a guy in my home country whom we have fallen in love and I will want o petition for him. I am due to file for citizenship now but I will want to petition for my new spouse to come here before I apply for my citizenship. So when I become a citizen Incan just upgrade my status. Now my question is immigration law says a period of 5 years should have elapsed since getting your GC if you got it through your previous spouse.. Before you can file for a new spouse. Unless you can provide evidence you did not enter the previous marriage only for the purpose of a GC. My question now is can I file for my new husband? (We just got married oversees) after 2 n half years. Tho it's not 5 years since I gained permanent residence from my old spouse (5 years in FEB 2014) I want to know if I can provide evidence like old spouse writing a letter and notarizing why and how we got divorced and also since he has filed for his new family and they are here with Him, they will have a record of that. Will that work out for me, suffix or I should just stick it in and wait till february to apply?
All responses are welcome and thanks in advance.
