Withdraw I-129F while being processing.

[Davidpowee]

I am a US citizen. I have filed petition for my fiancée over three months. My case is stil processing. However, our relationship is not working out. I am considering withdrawing the application now before it got approved and go to National Visa Center. My question is can I file for another I-129F in the near future if I find someone else. Is there a restricted time that I must wait until I am eligible to file a new I-129F?

There is some mention of filing a 2nd 129f within 2 years of a 1st, that kinda assumes your first one was approved. I thought the I-129F ‘counts’ after it is approved and moves to the NVC?

Either way, if you’re pretty sure it’s not working out, the relationship, I’d be trying to cancel it. You may as well start the process of nullifying it.

As for filing a new I-129F, there's no set waiting period. But USCIS might scrutinize a new petition soon after a withdrawal. Focus on ending this petition and then consult an immigration attorney before filing again. They can advise on the best timing and strategy for your specific situation.

There's no legal waiting period to file a new I-129F for someone else. However, USCIS may scrutinize multiple petitions within a short timeframe. Be prepared to demonstrate the legitimacy of your new relationship.

Here's what I can tell you:

• Withdrawing your Application: Withdrawing your current I-129F petition is definitely an option, especially if the relationship isn't working out. You can contact USCIS to inquire about the withdrawal process.
• Filing a New I-129F: There's no legal restriction on filing a new I-129F in the future if you find someone else. However, USCIS may scrutinize subsequent petitions more closely, especially if they happen within a short timeframe.
• Focus on Bona Fide Intent: When you do file a new I-129F, it's crucial to demonstrate genuine romantic intent with your new partner. This means providing strong evidence of a bona fide relationship.

It might be helpful to consult with an immigration attorney. They can advise you on the best course of action for your specific situation, considering the withdrawal process and any potential concerns with filing a new petition soon after.

That sounds like solid advice. It's wise to consult with an immigration attorney before proceeding with a new petition to ensure you have the best strategy moving forward. They can provide guidance on timing and any potential issues that may arise based on your specific circumstances.
