Greetings:

Be nice everyone --- I believe everyone just tried to help. While it is true that a JD does not give one

complete wisdom on everything, every young lawyer starts with little experience.

By the same token, the attorney who did chat here does need to learn when it is appropriate to post. The OP's post forms a fairly complex scenario, that any AILA lawyer would not really hesitate to answer here. The only answer that would suffice is: There may be options, but see an immigration attorney in your area ASAP.

This could have avoided a lot of unnecessary debate and spouting here.

Be kind.

I've been a lurker here for a while and actually found this thread quite entertaining. I am no lawyer but am not sure why am1996 "needs to learn when it is appropriate to post." Didn't he say throughout the thread that the OP needs to consult an immigration lawyer?

On the other hand, the hostility and ignorance some members here have displayed towards others has been just puzzling and scary. Attacking others is certainly not a great way to create friends or maintain credibility.

I guess that depends on whom you define as whom.

Just throwing in my $0.02

As someone who clerks in a divorce court, a judge will see your divorce and all the supporting evidence, and if he or his staff suspect immigration fraud, they'll call DHS/ICE for advice on how to proceed, as now they're getting involved in a potentially messy situation.

We had a couple come in to file a "no fault" divorce (in this state that's 18 mo. separation -- which means you have not cohabitated for 18 months) filed exactly 18 months after the date of marriage. He was from Southeast Asia, she was a USC -- which, combined with their timeline/grounds for divorce, seemed to myself and the rest of the judge's staff as plenty of time to get TPR and essentially fraudulent, so we sent a note to the judge who called the head of the family court division who phoned ICE for advice on how to proceed, which is apparently the proper procedure in such cases, as judges who put through divorces on cases that are suspicious/"green card marriages" can get in serious trouble

Thus, if you've filed for divorce, more than likely, USCIS knows.

I'd rather not resurrect this thread for the purpose of any slanging.

I'd like to say, on behalf of those of us who have been here awhile and who have already 'tread the boards' of immigration - well it's kind of hard to take a new poster who comes along and speaks 'down' to us.

Also, some posters (not myself personally) when presented a situation such as the OP wrote will immediately suspect immigration fraud. Actually I was just amazed that the OP chose to 'stretch the truth'.

I've spent nearly 2 years on this board. Many of the other posters in this thread have been posting here a good while - some longer. We do that because to some degree we feel duty bound to help others - we answer and try to solve problems. I personally get a bit of satisfaction out of helping others - it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling - sappy as it sounds - and I'm glad to do it.

It's a bit of an insult to be 'challenged' repeatedly by someone who implies that they know better and will not concede to learning. I've made MANY an error on this board and was corrected or straightened out by someone with more knowledge. I always would thank them and publicly state that I 'goofed' and was grateful for having expanded my knowledge.

In my opinion, that was what caused the trouble in this thread. Nobody here knows it all. Nobody. Plus those of who do have a bit of knowledge from experience - well that has usually shown us that ANYTHING can happen when it comes to immigration.
