    Default Married to Recently Divorced U.S. Citizen

    Hey guys, My wife is US citizen and i m F-1 visa holder and currently in status. My wife divorced her husband on june 30th. And we got married on 1st of this october month. The question is that can my wife apply for my green card after only 3 months of getting divorced?. Is there any time limit that a divorcee has to wait so that she can apply for green card for her new husband?

    THanks a lot in advance.

    Texas has a 30 day waiting period after divorce before somebody can remarry; three months is beyond that period so that isn't an issue.

    The biggest potential impediment to your claim would likely be the question of whether this is a bona fide marriage, given how quickly it occurred after the divorce.
