I have a good friend who came to the US on a k-3 visa. She married her husband in the Philippines. She is a Filipino and he us a US citizen. She has been here now for 1year 5months. She has a 10 year green card. She lives in New York state.

Her husband after her arrival has become not a very

Nice man. He has cheated repeatedly and has been verbally abusive. He has two teenage kids who will not except her and treat he terribly and he will do nothing about it. He has never hit her or physically abused her. Only infidelity and verbal abuse from him and his kids.

Can she in her current situation divorce him without being kicked out of the US? Not sure if having her 10 year GC helps in this situation or not. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Yes with a ten year greencard, she can stay, even with a no-fault divorce. The only thing that will change for her immigration wise is that she will need to wait 5 years for citizenship.

It's quite possible that the lady is seeking advice from the OP, in which case there is no problem with the OP in turn seeking advice here to pass on to her.
