i751 due soon advice

[danbut 0]

i am about filing for i751 based on marriage for the past three years

guys this have been up and down the hill of a journey

our story begins in a small apartment low income struggling to even keep a shared bank account open

we have some open and closed on and off that we have shared 

and each one of us had a personal account as well.

 

during that time we were using alot of cash gathered from my mom

through 2013 mid 2015 our relationship was good but due to the financial struggling were not the greatest 

mid 2015 we could not even afford our place and had to move to the downstairs brother inlaw apartment were we stayed for a year and a half

around october i got a new business going and things going great thank god we moved to a new place 

having bills under her name some under mine 

we do have policy insurance together

and shared title on a car

our taxs throughout the year came to me as a surprise

as i just found out she was filing as head of house hold

also during gathering documents for our file i have found some fraudulent credit cards she opened under my name without my knowledge

and here is the best one yet i have found out she was pregnant with another guy and recently had an abortion ( i have found out this looking through our mail which was hidden at the house )

finding many medical bills and insurance claims that were not granted.

looking back at our marriage i feel like a fool and being used by her pretty much for my identity and benefits she could claim...

 

with that been said due to the situation my documentation for the i751 is pretty limited and as follow

 

- Lease 2013-2015 

- peco bills 2014-2015 under my name

- verizon bills 2014-2015 under my name

- rest utilities paid by the apartment complex so we have nothing else

- few opened and closed shared bank account with not much activity but in both our names

- my tax return 14.15.16 married filing separately , her tax return 14-15-16 - head of house hold ( she dident even put me in her tax return ) 

- w2 some of her w2 shows married status

- water bills under her name in new house DEC 2016-current

- peco under her name in new house DEC 2016-current

- directv under my name in new house April 2016-current

- ids of both of us showing our address

- joint insurance car and renters insurance for the new place

- joint car title 

- dog adoption papers

- shared pictures with step daughter who also lives with us throughout the years 

- brother inlaw affidavit stating we lived with him from july 2015 through dec 2016

 

i am freaking out both in my overall life situation and my upcoming i751

 

now keep in mind i am thinking of separating but my i751 is due in a month as my temp GC is about to expire

even if i am separating at the moment a divorce decree in the state i live in would take 5-6 months to finalize if everything goes smooth 

 

your input and advice is much appreciated

1) calm down

2) repeat 1)

3) you can file I-751 solo with a divorce waiver while in the process of divorce (without it being final) or when it is final. 

4) you can also file joint and then convert to a solo divorce waiver should divorce proceedings commence afterwards before ROC finished.

5) Processing times are slow. Unlikely that the ROC would be completed in 5-6 months.

6) You can't provide documents that don't exist. Concentrate on what you do have (or can get) that will help you. Divorce waivers still have to provide evidence of bona-fide-ness

7) USCIS has seen it all before. You won't be denied because a marriage has broken down. They don't care.

8) Calm down.

There seem to be a lot of red flags for USCIS in your situation. Contact a lawyer to help you navigate these.
