Ex husband - remove conditions

[trees 0]

My husband came in on a K-1. We married, he adjusted status, we divorced. If he makes application to remove conditions (by at least 3 months prior to his 2 years) do I have a legal right to know? I ask as I am responsible for him for 10 years since I'm the one who signed the paperwork.

He can file for I-751 removal of Conditions alone, even ahead of the 90 day window since he is now divorced. He does not need your signature on any papers now that you are divorced. Do you have a legal right to know? No. The I-751 reminder letter arrived in his name, not yours. Immigrations is not concerned about you. It is all about him. Should he have the courtesy to let you know? Sure.

I believe that after divorce, you are not financially responsible for him anymore. I know about the paper that we all signed - him not becoming a public charge, etc. But in the event of divorce and before I-751, I don't belive the financial responsibility remains in your hands.

The I-864 responsibility does not end with divorce once the AOS has occurred. The I-864 instructions specifically state: "Divorce does not end the sponsorship obligation." (Form I-864 Instructions (Rev. 10/18/07)Y Page 3)

Yes this is the information that I have always known but that is not my question. We no longer speak and I'd like to know if I have ANY right to know if he files since I am responsible for him.

Hi Trees,

The answer to your question is no, you do not, unless he chooses by courtesy to inform you.

We married he applied for his adjustment, received his temporary green card, I kicked him out as he was cheating on me. Filed for divorce and divorce is now final and he has about a year remaining to file to remove conditions. The divorce was final before he started/or will start to remove conditions. He will need to apply by himself. It is my understanding that I'm still resonsible for him for 10 years.

I recently read that that the USCIS will read our divorce papers if he applies. They might question the validy of the marriage based upon things written in the papers. As I now know that his intentions were not for a bonafied marriage. I have heard that it is very difficult to prove it. I'm at a lose to attempt to prove his lack of intention as he has made threats in the past and and I have resaon to believe that he might act on it. Additionally, he left with no papers of any sort to prove that it was a bonafied relationship. I don't think that he will have the ability to gather the necessary info to apply successfully.

I actually disagree with the responses regarding your "responsibility". To answer your question, yes you are still "responsible" for him even after divorce. The word responsible here is a vague term and I am not personally aware of a case where someone as been held responsible for an alien after divorce. The law uses this term as a deterrent and also to make sure that he will not become a public charge, i.e homeless, welfare recipient e.t.c. But as I said earlier, it's not like you are required under law to pay some kind of spousal support for him. If he commits a crime, he will be held responsible not you. So to answer your question on responsibility, your are responsible until he becomes a citizen.

If you are concerned that he did not enter into your marriage in good faith and that he simply used and abused you to get a GC then if I were you, I would write a letter to USCIS letting them know of your concerns.

If he has threatened you or abused you though - you should file a police report so that should you ever have to call for help one dark night, there already is a complaint on file. Don't wait until it is too late.

A piece of advice for your sanity: You have suffered enough as is, paying back is no compensation for anything. If you are certain he will not have proof of a bona fide relationship, he will be rejected anyways (although most cases seem to get approved, even under weirdest of circumstances)

Good luck to you, and I hope you will find a better place soon.

Let me address your concerns. Sorry this happened to you. The best is to move on with your life. You are financially responsible for him till he become a citizen, or finishes certain amount of work quarters, or leaves the country, or dies. You can address your concerns to the CIS, but to prove that his intentions were not bonafide and get him removed will be very difficult. He can remove the conditions by himself, that will be his waiver application, and you have no right to know about his immigration status.

Only if you have pieces of evidence of outright boldfaced fraud or not bonafide intentions his application could be rejected. Also it doesn't depend on how much of evidence he has in his application, its the quality of evidence, even if he has a few but of good quality his application will be approved. CIS wants to see if he had true intentions when you'll got married by supporting evidence that youll did share a married life together. What happened after that is family law...cheating..abuse....your fault my fault etc etc. CIS is not concerned about the reasons why the marriage failed.

If you divorced, then I assume you just want to move ahead with your life, well stop worrying about him, and just let it be.
