Hi need some advice, I've been through hell and back since my Cambodian wife has gotten here, she been here 2 years. She arrived in April 2015, and upon 2 weeks after here and her son getting here she physically attacked me, I immediately felt this was a mistake, and it only got worse, We had agreed to wait to have a child until she got her GED and her education, but after the first month of her being here and didn't get pregnant, she would make nasty statements "Oh you're to old, your sperm is no good. She insistant on getting pregnant. Well needless to say she got pregnant and immediately after finding out we were going to have a baby she began saying the baby was going to drag her life down, complaining constantly, her behaviors became worse over the next several months. We moved closer to my family after baby was born thinking it would help being around family and give her that social network do be able to do things, bit she always refused saying she had to many things to do or was busy. December of 2016 she called the 911 because she wanted advice because I wouldn't let her touch my phone, I had recordings of her violent outbursts, and of her confessing that if I didn't give her 20 thousand dollars she was selling our baby in Cambodia, and many other statements and conversations just like that. After she did that I told her it was over, She has broken many thing with her violent outbursts, and didn't want my daughter growing up in this environment, her son had seen it many years and was beaten several time by her, he stated this after they came here. I had her removed from the house with a protection order, she would climb on top of me while I was asleep completely naked saying she was raping me because I made her mad. I started sleeping on the couch and she would do this several more times, under normal conditions it would have been ok, bit we weren't getting along at all. So she was removed from the house December 17th. It has just been a huge mess, she has tried creating a story that I was abusive and drink all the time, I found Google searches, how do I divorce and Still keep my greencard, I just want to know if immigration will contact me for an interview. Any ideas how or who to contact to make sure she doesn't just slide through the system without being checked and interviewed?

A divorce lawyer.

She can then file the I-751 solo with a divorce waiver, and you are no longer involved in the process.

 

Followed by a therapist, and moving on with your life. 

CR1 / DCF (London): 2012 / 2013 (4 months from I-130 petition to visa in hand)

I-751 #1- April 2015 [Denied]

 

April 2015 : I-751 Joint filing package sent fedex next day 09:00am from UK ($lots - thanks). 
Jan 2017: Notification that an interview has been scheduled at a local office. Bizarrely still no RFE... 
Jan 2017: 2hr wait, then interview terminated before it began, due to moving my ID to another state 2 wks prior. New interview 'in a few months...maybe.'   Informed them that divorce proceedings are underway, but not finalised at this time. 
March 2017: An Interview was scheduled - marked as no-show as they didn't actually send out a notification of interview. FML 
April  2017: Filed an official complaint with the ombudsman, and have requested Senator & Congressman assistance
August 2017: Interview - switched to a (finalised) divorce waiver. Told that decision will be made that afternoon, but no problems foreseen with my case. 
October 2017: Letter of Denial received - reason given as 'I-751 petition was not properly filed'. Discovered ex-spouse made false allegations to USCIS in 2015. No opportunity given to review & refute allegations  - contrary to USCIS policy.

I-751 #2 - Oct 2017 - Mar 2021[Denied] 

 

October 2017: Within 72hrs of receiving denial notice, a new waiver I-751, divorce decree & $680 cheque, sent to Vermont via FedEx overnight 9am priority.  
Dec 2019: Filed FOIA request for full A# file
Feb 2020: FOIA request completed - entire A# file received as a .PDF; 197 pages fully redacted, and 80 partially redacted. Don't waste your time!
March 2021: I-751 #2 denied for lack of evidence. No RFE, no interview, and evidence in previous I-751 not reviewed - contrary to policy. Huge errors in adjudication.

N-400 - Feb 2018 - Apr 2021 [Denied]

 

February 2018: N-400 filed online.  $725 paid to the USCIS paperwork wastage fund

February  2019: Interview - cancelled after a four hour wait due to 'missing paperwork' on their end. Promised Expedited reschedule.

March 2021: Interview letter received, strangely dated after I-751 denial. No I-751 interview conducted. N-400 interview and test passed, given 'cannot make a decision at this time' paper due to the ongoing I-751 nightmare...

April 2021: N-400 denial received citing recent I-751 denial as basis for ineligibility, even though it should have been a combo interview 🤯

I AM JACK'S COMPLETE LACK OF SURPRISE

Service Motion - March 2021 [Sent via FedEx & COMPLETELY IGNORED by USCIS]

 

March 2021: Service Motion request sent overnight addressed direectly to field office director, requesting urgent review and re-opening, based on errors in adjudication - citing USCIS policy, AFM and memorandums as basis for errors. This was completely ignored by USCIS.

 I-751 #3 - June 2021 - Jan 2024 [Denied]

 

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY

June 2021: I-751 #3 (30+lbs/5000 pages of paperwork) & another $680 sent to USCIS via FedEx ($300+..thanks) .... 

June 2021: Receipt issued, card charged, biometrics waived, infopass scheduled for I-551 stamp number ten.....

Feb 2022: RFIE (no, not an RFE, a Request For Initial Evidence) received, for copies of the divorce paperwork that they already have 😑

July 2022: Infopass for I-551 stamp number eleven.....

August 2023: Infopass for I-551 stamp number twelve....

January 2024: Denial received, ignoring the overwhelming majority of the filing, abundance of evidence, and refutation of a provably false allegation. The denial also contradicts itself in multiple places, as if it was written by someone with an IQ <50.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

2024: FML. Seriously. I'm done.

I am a bit confused here. Do you have a green card and sponsored her to come to the US after you got the green card? At first, I had assumed you were a USC and she had a green card. 

 

If you are a USC, you should get a lawyer. Your focus should be to get full custody of your daughter. I don't know about the situation of your stepsons but you might be able get full custody of them too with the evidence you have against her. 

 

I would not worry about her green card. First, she will have the restraining order in the system. If she breaks it, call the cops. They will do a background check for ROC and who knows what will happen, even with a divorce waiver. Second, I know some people have sent letters to UCSIS trashing their exes, but it seems it doesn't really work because many people get angry with each other when they divorce so USCIS doesn't pay much attention. However, if they ask her at the interview something about the divorce and she lies about what happened, then that will be a problem for her. One thing you could try, if possible, is to present some of your evidence in court to get full custody of your daughter and that evidence will be public record. Also, all that doesn't help for her moral character. Third, focus on your daughter. Do not spend energy on what you wife/ex is doing. The way she sounds, she will get into trouble on her own pretty soon.

Yes that I what I am doing, I currently have primary care and she has supervised visitations on the weekend by her stepson, which she violates every time, by her own admission, stating he doesn't have to be with them constantly, She has been on every daring site and its sort of funny because back when we first got married we set her email up to send me a copy of everything because she needed me to explain what certain things the lawyers we're saying to her, and yes I am a USC, so I get all her correspondence with the men from match.com, and she joined these dating sites almost immediately after leaving the house, didn't hear one word from her for the first 3 and a half months, not one inquiry about my daughter, even now she never sends msgs during the week to find out how she is doing, which is fine, I know the only reason she wants my daughter, she thinks and has stated they won't deny me GC with a baby that is a USC. I found out after her and her son got here that her daughter married a man in Australia for money so he wouldnt lose his visa, makes me completely sick to my stomach. That people exist like this.

Yes I don't worry about what she does, I could care less. My daughter is my priority.

Ok. That sounds good. I am so sorry you have to go through this.

 

The best seems to get all the evidence in the court papers for divorce/custody and then you can send that to USCIS. At least they will have a record and can decide what to do. If she is dating she might try to get married to another USC to maintain her status or get another GC if she cannot do ROC.

Sorry this is happening to you, nobody deserves this after sacrificing so much t bring a person here.  And they turn out to have mental/personality disorders.  One thing that is puzzling is that you knew within 2 weeks that something was wrong with her, yet you continued to try to have a baby with her, and you did.  I assume you thought it would makes things better, but looks like the opposite happened.   

 

You can't affect what happens to her.  You can take the proof you have to USCIS, but chances are good that they won't do anything.  Even if they do, you wouldn't know so it defeats the whole purpose of enjoying seeing her suffer.  Don't waste time on trying to get her deported.  Focus on your daughter and yourself. 

 

Divorce and move on.

Most unlikely that Immigration would contact you, I was going to say they would not but remembered a post about a month ago saying somebody had been contacted.

And that would be your chance to give them all the proof you have.

Well once I have seen this is 10 plus years, so I am slightly dubious.

That was probably me - we were contacted, and on a weekend no less. It was for our AOS. I was dubious too and wondered if it was a prank but the status changed immediately and then the green card was in hand. So it does happen. 

 

Unless you mean being contacted specifically for cases like this...thankfully I don't know about that.
