I'm posing this question, because someone i know needs help. (really its not me).

 

Person came here on a finance visa, Both got  married a few weeks later. Then the  US citizen decide to move to another state, about 2 months after marriage. 

(Adjustment of status was already filed.).

 

Wife didn't want to go, wife wanted to stay in state because of being closer to family.

Marriage is now a little rocky.  

 

what can wife do? can wife still receive green card? options?

 

thanks for helping with ideas suggestion. Really this is not for me.

The wife can only adjust status through the petitioner. That is the rules of the K1 visa. If the petitioner decides to withdraw their affidavit of support or not be there for the interview, that means the beneficiary must go home because their green card will be denied.

As above, if the USC petitioner pulls the affidavit of support before she receives her green card then no, she has no way to adjust.

In this situation, even if the petitioner doesn't withdraw the application and attends the interview their current situation would be very difficult, if not impossible, to justify.

So she came here to be with here family not her husband

this is what makes it dificult to get our spouses and finances here

if she wants to stay,  she needs to work on the marriage 

good luck to them

1. Nothing.

2. If husband withdraws the Affidavit of Support and/or doesn't show up at the interview with her, then no.

3. Work on her marriage and try to save it or go home to avoid being out of status and having a deportation order made against her.
