Divorce and ROC

[ale1189 1]

Hello all

Please I need some help , here is my story

Got married to USC in April of 2010 , marriage was good until he start to cheating on me , so we ended up getting a divorce wich was final in December of 2011 . Now I didn't know that I can file for the ROC inmediatly after the divorce was final . So I'm here six months later and I didn't file for my ROC yet . I have prove of my bonafide marriage (bank acc. tax transcript , bills , house lease , pictures, health insurance , etc )

My question is ,because I didn't file for the ROC inmediatly after my divorce was final ,and I'm getting everything together to file now , They can deneid my ROC because I didn't file right away after my divorce was final .

Please I will really appreciate some help , I am really worried now . Thank you so much

After the divorce is final you can file. There is no time restriction.

They won't deny because you are filing now, they may deny for others reason, not for this one.Good luck.

I am kind of in the same situation but I haven't gotten a divorce yet. My wife and I entered the marriage in good faith on 10/01/2012 and 2 year green card expired on 03/06/2012 but I was too busy with work and forgot to send it.

we are no longer able to live together and we're most likely going to get a divorce, what should I do? I'm pretty worried, =/

Thank you in advance

Oops you need to change your dates. 10/01/2012 is not here yet and if your card expires on 3/6/2012, you cannot live in the US without the 10 year green card You need to file I-751 and choose a waiver to file it by yourself. The waiver is about a bona fide marriage but it ends in divorce. Submit evidence like you file jointly + the divorce decree.

Oops right. we got married in 2010 not 2012.

Does that mean that once the divorce procedure is engaged, the 90 days period no longer matters?

Thanks.

Silverback as soon ur divorce decree is finalized you must submit the I-751 and explain that you are filling late because the divorce.You need to hurry because Uscis probably soon will start with your removal proceedings and you must have the divorce at least filed in order to ask the immigration judge to hold your deportation, in case they start your removal. HURRY UP.

Wait, your conditional green card expired on 3/6/2012 so how can you live in the US without the 10 year green card? The 90 days period is from January to the expiration date of your card so it passed already. You have to file for divorce asap (if the marriage doesn't work out.) and as Sandra said, gather all documents like you file I-751 jointly, choose the waiver of a bona fide marriage but ends in divorce, include the divorce aggreement (or complaint agreement, whatever paper that you file for divorce) as a proof that your divorce is under process so they will stall removal proceeding on you and wait for the final divorce decree to make a decision. Are you gonna file I-751 to Vermont or California Center? Vermont takes 9-12 months, California around 6-10 months.

Good luck!
