Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner was found ineligible under Section 204(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. The Director determined that a prior marriage was entered into for the purpose of evading immigration laws, which creates a statutory bar to the approval of the current immigrant petition. This determination was based on investigations indicating the petitioner was living with his first wife during his second marriage.
