Best evidences for I-751 Waiver Application after divorce

[sally2012 0]

Hello,

We filed joint I-751 petition 3 months back. Unfortunately last week we have started teh divorce proceedings too but I don't think it will be complete before I-751 approval. But I think its better for me to let USCIS know about it & file waiver application. My spouse is having chronic mental issues & it is impossible to carry on now. I have access to his psychiatric history from insurance & also have recorded a conversation with him, where he admits of having psych issues & not able to support the relation. Will that be good enough to proove that I did everything in good faith, not knowing about his condition & now can't cope up more.

Based on your experience which peice of information or document can be a deciding factor for I-751 in positive sense & negative sense. Also, any idea how long it takes in CA for divorce & I-751 process to complete. I would really appreciate responses

I feel bad for you and I feel worse for our husband. Anyone suffering through mental illness needs a strong spouse or a strong support system. I know it must be difficult for you. Is there any classes you can take to help you deal with him and to help him in his struggles? I hope you can find a way to work it out. Has he been abusive to you or is he just sick and that is why you have to leave him?

Good Luck

You have to show that you entered the marriage in good faith, in addition to the evidence you show above.

Co-mingling of finances, joint assets, things of this nature.

With just the items you mentioned, I do not believe that will fit the bill.

Thanks a a lot for your responses.

1. I think t takes about 6 months to complete I-751 process. But few people on forums have told me 3-4 months for California Service Center. Can someone provide me realistic figure, provided that we have filed just before the dec holidays ?

2. Do I need to be in US for any stage of the divorce process. Do I need to seperately file for divorce in my country too, where we got married ?.

Thanks
