Hi guys, 

 

I filed my ROC last August 2016. My wife and I recently got separated (Feb 2017) , literally still moving out of the house. This is all still very fresh and we haven't decided if we truly do want to get a divorce. I plan on moving out March 1st and getting my own place in another state. I'll be in PA and she'll be in NJ at our original address. I called USCIS regarding my current petition and they said I have 5-6 months before processing. What are my options here?

 

I think the divorce will eventually happen but I don't want to rush into anything and risk screwing everything up if we ever do end up getting back together (again, very fresh so this is concern). 

 

Do I inform the UCSIS that we have separated? I've read they'll ask for a divorce decree before accepting the ROC in this case before approval. 

 

Or do I wait it out? I feel nervous about waiting it out as I'll be moving to another state and we won't technically won't be together. I don't want this to become an issue with citizenship. 

 

What are best options without rushing into anything, whilst still remaining completely legal in the ROC petition?
