[loveoneanother 0]

Good day my follow journey members, it is my pleasure to be with you guys this moment, once again, I want to thank you all for the information sharing on this site, May God bless you all and strengthen all of us in this journey,, I have a quick question that I will like to ask and any experience guideline will be appreciated.

I got my 2 years green card in 2012 based on marriage, I removed the condition in 2014 and received my 10 years in the same 2014, I filed for citizenship in 2015, here is my story, I filed N-400, I went for my naturalization interview in October 2015 and I didn't know that my wife paid for an apartment somewhere else, on my interview the officer asked me about this strange address and I told him that I didn't know about the address, he told me that the public record is showing that my wife was evicted from that address, I replied to him , well I didn't know about it, the officer mentioned again that my wife record is showing that there was a small claim court with her name in another address, I asked him which address is that, when he mentioned, it was her mother's address, I told the officer that this second address is her mother's house that my wife and the siblings have been using this address since before we got married because we are missing letters in our own apartment, I told the officer that I live with my wife but I don't know about the first address, the officer said we should continue our English test, after the test and I passed the whole test, the officer gave me a white sheet for passing the test and said that decision can't be made at that moment, I went home, when I came home, I told my wife how I went for the interview, I asked her about the address, she told me that she rented the address because we used to have argument, so she rented it as a place she always go to relax when we get in to it, but she didn't let me know about that address, the next day, I received an email denial notification, we concluded to file appeal, request for hearing on a decision (N-336) in December 2015, she wrote a letter and was notarized stating that I didn't know about the address and explained why she rented the apartment because of our disagreement and said that we are living together and is our marriage, her mother wrote a letter and was notarized too stating that the second address mentioned is her address and her daughter is only using there to receive mail, her sister wrote a letter and was notarized too stating that she sister to my wife and she has known us since we became married, she also said we used to have disagreement but we live together and is our marriage, 3 of my friends wrote letters too and was notarized explaining how they knew me and my wife,in December I mailed out the N-336 with all this letters from my friends, in-laws, my wife and other supporting document, in January 2016, I had disagreement with my wife and she moved out of the house again, in February 2016 I got a legal document from the sheriff that she filed for divorce, our first divorce court date will be by the ending of March 2016

MY QUESTION IS NOW, APPEAL (N-336) is still pending and my wife threatened that she will call the immigration and tell them that we are not staying together, should I write a letter to my local immigration office and withdraw this appeal or should I write a letter to them updating them that we had disagreement and my wife moved out of the house then filed for divorce...

Any quick answer will be appreciated, Thanks in advance

Daimmmmmm....sh*t cannot be more twisted! You need a good attorney in order to fight a potential marriage fraud charge and deportation if USCIS goes that route after getting a letter from your wife. Citizenship should be the least of your concern.

Should I leave this appeal alone and allow them to make their decision, my wife wrote a letter and notarized it that the denial made on naturalization was false, she told them that she didn't told me about that apartment she rented, her mother wrote notarized letter, her sister wrote too, so now she moved out of the house while this appeal is still pending, do I have to leave it alone until they decide, guys I need your opinion

I'd leave the naturalisation alone for now. You can file under the 5 year rule later, and no need for living together etc.

I doubt she can have you deported, since you have evidence of living together it sounds like a bonafide marriage, at least on your side.

Penguin, do you mean I should leave the Pending appeal (N-336) alone and I don't need to write a letter to my local office telling them my wife she left the house again and filed for divorce or write them a letter to withdraw my appeal,

It is probably better to withdraw the appeal, rather than leave it alone, just to "make things neater" for the government, and since you now no longer live in marital union with your wife anyway.

GO GET AN EXPERIENCED IMMIGRATION LAWYER!!!!! NOW. NOT LATER. THIS IS NOT A DO-IT-YOURSELF CASE ANYMORE.

The first thing you should do now is to start collating all the previous evidence you used during your green card application. Also gather enough evidence to show that you guys have been living in matrimony since your initial green card got approved. Things like co-mingling of finances, pictures, tax transcripts, insurance documents with your names, utilities, other bills and any other form of evidence. This evidence is very essential even if you are going to hire an attorney. However, do note that attorneys might charge more than you can afford so you could look for affordable charity-based lawyers. This is a very serious case and do not ramble with it. I wish you good luck.
