K-1 spousal abuse & green card

[vett 6]

O.K. for those of you who remembered my last post about my friends who were going thru a lil mess, well here is the latest twist in the drama

she has now claimed spousal abuse as a a last resort to stay in the US. problem is she still does not have her conditional green card. her appointment

to adjust status from a fiance visa to a CR1 visa is in a few days. but now she got her husband arrested.

so my question now is can she adjust her status now. all by her self by using this spousal abuse issue?

any answer appreciated.

thanks guys.

She needs to seek advice from an immigration lawyer and divorce lawyer. She cannot make her husband sign any documents to AOS her, he was only arrested, he has not been charged until he has HIS day in court. The laws in the US are way different than the laws in Jamaica.

How is that possible? to adjust from a fiance visa to a CR-1 visa...?

It's not, the husband has refused to go to the AOS interview. Now that she has gotten him arrest, I am sure he won't be showing up now. Trying to claim WAVA so close to the interview date will give USCIS reason to securitize their AOS a lot closer.

well thanks guys for all your replies. i feel so much for my friend he does NOT deserve it. i know he would NEVER hit her, so i know she is just trying to

build a case against him. after all she did to him she is still trying to bring him down. but karma will deal with her. she was my friend too, but now i do

not want to be her friend anymore bcuz she has shown me that she can be a viscous, conniving, manipulate witch!! i wish her all the best.

Tell him to show up at the AOS interview and contest it. Then the ball is in her court. He should file for am immediate divorce, let her figure out how to finesse immigration.

seeems she is celebrating his Arrest however doesn't mean he will be convicted. Smh. She is the same one who accepted the K visa knowing she wanted nothing with the relationship?

are you saying that if he shows up at the AOS and try to contest it, that will put her in the winnings?

Dont acquire information for her...... She does seem desperate.

yes that is exactly what she did. but they also has a son together so i guess she figures with that fact, plus the fact that she got him

arrested on domestic violence she has a solid case to get her green card. bcuz he told her that he was not going to the AOS meeting.when

he found out that she was cheating with the neighbor, and she told him that it's over. also she did not consummate the marriage, that is

what she and him told me.

What I am saying is that if he shows up and explain why he is not willing to AOS, they will either deny or give her the opportunity to present her WAVA claim. A WAVA claim is not easy. But it will let him off the hook, all he will have to do is divorce her at his leisure, or she will have to divorce him at her expense.

All of the work and expense will be put upon her to try to obtain her GC thru the wava claim if there is any creditability to it. He will be able to go his merry way, because he will not be under any obligations to her any longer. If I remember correctly there is a child involve in this marriage, that would be another court case.

That would be so good if he can be at the interview.

We American didn't think we held such a commodity for some people. Life is a circle, what goes around always find a way to come back to you.
