My husband used my financial information to apply for his mother green card and we are filing a divorce now. Am I financially responsible for his mother after the divorce. What are my options? Her biometrics has been done. I need immediate help. 

So you signed the I-864, having faith in your ex husband for his mother to obtain her visa.  I'm curious to know if your ex husband co-sponsored the I864, but I doubt we will never know considering the OP had good faith in her then husband and signed the papers without knowing the ramifications if mother in law becomes a public charge.  If you ex husband Co-sponsored, then I doubt they will try to pull any funny business considering he is on the contract as well.  If you are the only one on the I864, this could be problematic.  

 

If your ex mother-in-law applies for any kind of public assistance, then you could be on the hook.  Is your ex-mother-in-law here in the US now?  And if so, where is she living and does she have employment aspirations?  

 

I'm sorry to hear you are in this position.  You must be feeling lots of anxiety and confusion right about now.  Hopefully, the VJ forums can shine a little light on your situation.

A good example for why you should not sponsor family by marriage.

That is decided on a case-by-case basis by the people involved.

I am not sure the OP did sign anything judging from her confusion.

It sounds like the husband did the I-864 but used household income and so maybe the OP signed the I-864A. Unless the income documents he had were such that he was able to submit them as if they were his own, but really they included income from the OP.
