Once you have your permanent 10yr GC, you dont have any more joint filings. You just renew it, or file for citizenship, both of which you do on your own, spouse not involved.

Sorry to hear of your divorce. Wish you best of luck.

NO once LPR always LPR after the conditions are removed.

Maintaining Permanent Residence You may lose your permanent residence status if you commit an act that makes you removable from the United States under the law in section 237 of the Immigration and Nationality Act. If you commit such an act, you may be brought before the immigration courts to determine your right to remain a Permanent Resident.

You may be found to have abandoned your permanent resident status if you:

• Move to another country intending to live there permanently.

• Remain outside of the US for more than one year without obtaining a reentry permit or returning resident visa. However in determining whether your status has been abandoned any length of absence from the US may be considered, even if it is less than one year.

• Remain outside of the US for more than two years after issuance of a reentry permit without obtaining a returning resident visa. However in determining whether your status has been abandoned any length of absence from the US may be considered, even if it is less than one year.

• Fail to file income tax returns while living outside of the US for any period.

• Declare yourself a “nonimmigrant” on your tax returns.

Also other things like failing to file IRS returns, voting in an election and doing other things that LPR's are not allowed to do will get your green-card revoked.

Divorce is not grounds to revoke a permanent card.

You cannot lose your 10 yr greencard due to divorce
