Green card with conditions

[richy 0]

Hi, I have a question about the green card, I married my wife last year December 2010

And she received her green card in June 2011, and I found out that she was writing men

On the internet and had dating sites. And may been cheating on me, I can’t prove that I only have the letters of proof,, well we had a big fight and she left one day I came home from work and she was gone. I do not know where she is living. That was in November I wanted to work everything out well she came back three weeks later , then left two days later. My question what are her Chances of getting the next green card, we have no property nothing with our names on them together no joint bank account, no anything, no abuse , the only thing she has Is the Tax returns for 2010, she stole that,, And this year I can file returns with her and her daughter as my depends ,last year I could not file for my step-daughter Year, 2010.

There are two main delineations on filing a Removal of Conditions Case, pursuing a 10 year card, for her, at this point:

1. The two of you file together, as you're still married and the marriage is a continuing marriage or

2. She files for ROC after the divorce is finalized, prior to the 2 year window.

With this pattern that you've mentioned, though - I say file for divorce now or nowish then it's on her to file the ROC case.

Be warned though - many women think to file a VAWA case, and 'there's a playbook for that' - so make sure, certain, you are never in her presence without a witness , someone that is 'on your side' on all matters.

Second, that... Do not be alone with her. You can get a tax copy from your account or the IRS. File for divorce, protect your self, you do not want to be accused of abuse. You can advise USCSIS of her fraudulent means of obtaining a green card, but don't think it will do much good. Sorry to hear this.

Where is the step-daughter?

Cheating doesn't mean immigration fraud, just means she's a bad person. Unless you have proof that she married you for the GC there's nothing you can do. You're still on the hook for the I-864.

File for divorce and she needs to ROC on her own. She doesn't need you.

I suggest you speak to the police in your area or a lawyer to find out the rules on changing the locks on your house (you can't just lock her out). I also suggest you cancel any cards she has to your accounts. If you have a joint account you need to look at the wording to determine whether you can have her removed or if you need to just make a new account. I believe the wording of an account also determines how much money from a joint account (if any) you can take out... but speak to a lawyer to be sure.

Okay , I need to try my question again,, I have a wife, we got married in December 2010, and she got her green card with conditions, in June 2011, and in November 2011, she left me, and we have no financial accounts together, no will no documents of any kind with both our names on them, the taxes forms from last year is all she has,when she left she took those tax return forms. The question I have is what will be her chances of getting the next green card, the permanent green card.. if we do get divorce, it is true I do not want a divorce and want to work everything out with her,, I ask my question just in case we do get a divorce. I feel her friends are giving her the wrong advise.

*** Two topics merged and moved to ROC forum as OP's wife already did AOS. Please do not start more than one topic on an issue- instead post updates or follow-on questions as replies to your original topic ***

it is my guess that she is not getting bad advice. She is just getting advice that won't be good for you.

[Darnell 8,478]

richy - she can file the ROC case on her own, after a divorce, without you, without VAWA.

Darnell, Bigdog and Vannesa are giving you good advice, we understood your question, you want to know the level of success that your wife can have filing for ROC if you divorce her and she files by herself.

People have many ways to ensure to remove conditions in the GC and to have success, and one of them is filing for VAWA. By fact I know personally of a case where the husband accused the wife (petitioner) to bit him, showed faked photos and one day the police just showed up at the couple’s residence and put the wife in jail. So in this way he could file for VAWA , have a successful ROC and of course getting rid of the wife. This is just an example of ways to make sure a person will get the permanent GC.

And watch more if you said that her friends are giving her bad advice. Hope this helps.

Darnell, Bigdog and Vannesa are giving you good advice.

as per the usual!

to the OP: because your estranged wife is entitled to apply to remove conditions on here own after a divorce, she doesnt 'need you' to be part of the process. its hard to tell you what her chances are. id say they are reasonably good as long as there is no immigration fraud involved.

she sounds like shes not been very nice to you. im sorry for that. keep the door open if you feel like there is hope, but you need to take care of yourself. try not to make the green card part of the equation for your choices.
