I am a UK citizen and have my interview this week in London for a K-1
visa. My fiancee is a US citizen and was previously married. When we
were filing the original forms in the US we got a letter saying the
certified copy of her final divorce decree wasn't good enough and we had
to send in the original. We did that and everything went through okay.
Once we sent everything in we never got it back.

Now I'm looking
through the document checklist and am wondering what I have to do
regarding the "termination of prior marriages" section. I have no
documents as they have already been sent in. Like an idiot I sort of
skipped that bit as I was worried about what I had to gather and I've
never been married!! It is a holiday in the US today so if I need
something my fiancee could possibly go to the court tomorrow and send
something over that is guarenteed next day delivery (does anyone know
anywhere good to arrange 24 hour delivery?). My interview is on
Thursday!!

What I was wondering was that as her divorce documents have
already been seen and approved whether I had to take anything? When you
go to the interview do they have records of what you have submitted
before or are you going in and talking to someone that has nothing and
you have to show you have enough to get the visa?

Apologies for the
long winded question but my interview is around the corner and I'm
freaking out now!

You can always email
London Paul to check. But I will tell you that in our case (K3 going
thru London),that although we had both been married previously, once we
got past the 129F approval, the only thing that they wanted to see at
the interview was my UK husband's prior marriage license and final
divorce decree. Don't know why the prior license, but never mind. I
repeat, if in doubt email 'em or call 'em.
Good luck

    > Thank you Cindy. Just in answer to my own
question (we've been on the £100 a second phone line to the embassy)
when I get there the person I have to speak to will have our file and
included in it will be stuff we've previously sent in. The person on the
other end of the phone confirmed that I won't have to take the divorce
stuff along as it's already in the file! I'm happy about that even
though it sounds way too efficient to be true! A big sigh of relief came
out of my mouth I can tell you!

Actually it is
true. The brown envelope you are given, if you are approved, will
contain every single piece of paper submitted from the I-129F onward
with a few from the agencies involved as well.

To be on the safe side
take a photocopy of her divorce decree. I'm assuming she did keep
copies of the package she submitted on your behalf.
