No!!! who told you that the divorce court will deport you??? you have all the right to stay legally in the US! when your tile to file I751 to remove conditions of your green card cames (which the window opens 90 days prior of expiration) you would have to fill up a waver. You have to send evidence showing that you entered the marriage in good faith but for XX reasons the marriage fail! USCIS are the only ones that can "deport" you. You are still with a legal status otherwose said by USCIS. Hope it helps, you should also seek same legal advise when the time cames!

Actually, you won't have to wait until the 90 day window opens up. Once the divorce is finalized you can file the I-751 with no further delay. The 'waiver' is actually a part of the form itself - it is at the bottom. You check off the place where it says you are filing on your own and are requesting a 'waiver' from filing jointly with your husband because you are now divorced. You will still need to prove that your marriage was a real marriage and not solely to get a green card. Hopefully the divorce decree will require your ex-husband to continue to support you while you start your new life on your own. He is still responsible for making sure you do not require public assistance even after you are divorced. You do not need to leave the US unless you want to. You will not be deported. Divorce court is a totally different court than immigration and has nothing to do with your immigration status at all. Good luck.
