I see the above are the most and best contributors to this NG, and I need help.
Am a US citizen for about 1 year after marrying US spouse and living with her for 4+ years. Unfortunately, we divorced few months ago.
If I want to marry someone from UK through DCF or get K visa for them since am USC, will the fact that I got citizenship from the first marriage be a problem?
What should I do now to start preparing for questions from USCIS when I file paperwork to try and bring the new alien?
Or should I wait for many years after becoming USC before I can petition for an alien?
katikati, you don't have to wait on anything. You are a USC and you can marry anyone you want. Just make sure that it is a true marriage because if it isn't, the INS WILL know.

KatiKati is now a USC so that is out of question she could petition, should she remain as an LPR then what you described would apply but since she has naturalized it no longer does.

I don’t think it should matter anymore as you are a USC now… but they can definitely check the validity of first marriage, if it was genuine…u got nothing to worry about … good luck…Pasha
