US citizen married to LPR. She became pregnant from one of her men friends. Now lost baby. I can not have children and no intimacy in over a year. She started meeting men a month after she arrived in USA, July 2009. She wants to divorce me and go on welfare for her and her two LPR sons. They have a co-sponsor. She wants her hospital and GYN bill paid by medicaid and state funding.(about $15,000). I'm on social security and we are barely able to make it. She makes very little money and quite her regular job, so she could go to Cancun with her Mexican boyfriend. They have now split up, but she does not love me anymore. Her green card expires in July 2011. I will not renew it. What are my options here? If I give her a divorce, will welfare come after me to repay them and the medcaid bill for her prenancy ? God I was duped for a green card.

She sounds like a very inmature, dishonest woman. I hate that kind of immigrant, the one who gets to the US and instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to work and study they get on Medicaid, food stamps, WIC, and whatever other "goodies" us, responsible working and tax paying citizens, pay.

Just out of curiosity, how old are you and how old is she?

Heck, I'm sure it isn't too difficult for illegals to get those benefits (see enough of them on medicaid, food stamps section 8 housing etc around here) so that wouldn't surprise me too much.

Illegals can not get any of those other than emergency medicaid which is for exactly that emergencies.

They will not be denied care in an ER though. So that's where they go, for everything.
