Divorce under CR-1?

[madpnd 0]

So my situation goes like this: got married last January 2016 but we were together since 2011, had two kids prior to the marriage, petitioned and got a green card by my husband, moved to the NJ, USA last June -- unfortunately (or fortunately), my husband left and moved to WA due to irreconcilable differences and in an abusive relationship. Bottom line is, the marriage went south. I stayed here in NJ since we were living with my side of the family. I'm planning to file for a divorce this July (to complete to 1-year residency requirement), but how will this affect my green card status? I have proof that the marriage was bona fide:

* we had two kids (obviously)

* my car insurance shows that he is one the drivers

* he was under my health insurance

* we had a joint Bank of America checking account

* My Driver's License and his GDL permit shows the same address

 

I don't know if this will be enough to prove the government that the marriage was bona fide.

Also, I need help on how to file for child support since ever since he moved out, he is not helping with the finances to raise our kids. My situation is really rocky right now, especially I'm worried that I might be deported  and I am planning to go to school this fall for a new beginning. I am very clueless on where to start and how to do things on my own, but I have to. I have no idea how divorce works (I'm in NJ, if that helps), how to start the process, and how to process my ROC... Please help me

Sounds to me like you have plenty of proof you entered the marriage in good faith, which is all that is needed.
