[pastiq 0]

I CAME IN ON A K-3 VISA FROM INDIA AND AM NOW LIVING WITH MY WIFE WHO IS PUTTING ME CONSTANTLY ON HUNGER ANYTIME WE HAD AN MISUNDERSTANDING. I CAN'T WORK NOW SINCE AM YET TO APPLY FOR MY EAD. SHE PUSH ME AWAY FROM THE BED AND MAKE ME SLEEP ON THE FLOOR, LOCKS ME OUTSIDE THE HOUSE THAT I HAD TO CALL THE FATHER FOR RESCUE. EVERYBODY TELLS HER THIS IS WRONG THE TREAT ME. I CAN'T TOUCH ANYTHING IN THE HOUSE, THE TV IS LOCKED, COMPUTER DISCONNECT AND CAN'T COMMUNICATE WITH MY FAMILY ABROAD. ISN'T THIS AN ABUSE ON ME AND WHAT SHOULD I DO?

The police are giving you the best advise, you will need a lawyer anyway if you consider a divorce, the lawyer can give you advise about how to gather evidence proving your situation.

I wish you well in your situation, no one should have to put up with that especially someone who is so far form their homeland.

I'm suprised that the Police would not respond to a call. Did you call them after the fact? To be put out on the street, after you've been living in a place for sufficient time to call it your residence is against the law in many states. Is this a general state of affairs, or is this something that occurs after an argument has happened? If the latter, before calling a relative, call the police. Hopefully, they will investigate. Good luck.

against the law???...doubtul. If she is the owner, her name is on the lease, etc., she decides who can stay there and who cant. I would doubt that he is listed as co-owner, co-lesee, etc.

Yes, in some states the police can't force an individual to leave his/her legal residence. It becomes a legal residence after a certain term, regardless of if his/her name is on the title or lease. This is a married couple, and the ownership of assets would be determined by a judge and not a police officer.

HMMMM.....at a loss for words on this one. If it is that bad why dont you go back home?? Seems to me it's

the sensible thing to do. Why has your "SO" started acting this way? Is she crazy....OR does she have a reason? Hey, just trying to see both sides of tyhe coin before I start buying into the story of the 'poor"

abused man. That's my piece...sorry if I am not too naive :-(

I don't know what state you currently live in, but check with the police and the local county courthouse -- you might be able to file a domestic violence temporary restraining order against her, then use said TRO as grounds for a divorce based on physical cruelty, for which you would not need an attorney unless she contests it and wants to take the matter to trial.

If granted such a divorce, the grounds would be evidence toward showing you did not come here to commit visa/marriage fraud, and the TRO would be enough with the new IMBRA policy to keep her from marrying another immigrant.

Remember, that's all "mights" and "coulds" and hypotheticals. Call your local courthouse first -- that's a good starting off point. Also, depending on the state you reside in, you may be able to get an attorney to represent you for free and have filing fees waived if you do not have your GC or Temp. Work Permit and therefore have no means of self-support.

In that case, she could get a court order in a heart beat getting him out of there.

What kind of court order? They are married and until the marriage is terminated, he has the same right as she to reside in the marital home (separate property or otherwise, if I am not mistaken, there isn't a court order, other than a divorce decree that will replace the need for a judge's or a trier of fact's decision as to property distribution and settlement.)
