Well, I’m just here to find helpful information as regards what am experiencing not here for this your negativity and unpleasant response. Do you know how many years we have been together even before coming in as a k1 ? 
Do you know all we been doing to also make our marriage work ? You’re better of asking reasonable questions than jumping the gun.

If everyone here Portray this your energy who will vend reasonable and useful information to those who needs them ? 
You need to do better sir.

Actually, YOU need to prepare for what the interviewing officer is going to ask. As stated above, the timing of this is suspicious. You will need a LOT of proof that you entered the marriage in good faith.  I would even suggest consulting an attorney for an opinion.  Become an "A" student of filing an I-751 with a divorce waiver.

Hi Good people,

 

 I have a question, what are the options available to K1 beneficiary after entering the US and getting married and file for AOS and receive green card then the husband and wife separated or end the marriage due to one problem or the other from time to time.

Does the beneficiary have any chances after the estranged wife inform the uscis that the marriage is no longer existing. 

Thanks as we wait your opinions.

 

Those are 2 oddities.  Regarding divorce or separation, a real situation will be one or the other and not ask for advice for both.

 

The second item not typical.  Normal divorces do not result in the USC informing USCIS about the divorce.  

 

This is why there are some questions regarding your situation.

No, because you haven't completed your timeline.

And no, you haven't shared what you have done to make your marriage work. How are we to know?

 

The timeline, though, does not help. Separating shortly after the gc is issued is one of the red flags for fraud. And Ghana is a fraud country. Thanks to your fellows that commit fraud.

Our questions here are 1% of what the IO is going to ask.

Then will it not make reasonable sense if he has tried to ask for me to make corrections to my first post and get it straight than accusing of fraud in my post ? 
common sense I guess.

I cannot, will not or should not talk on behalf of other person.

Back to your original question, the fact that you are from Ghana and the fact that you separated shortly after you got your green card will bring extra scrutiny, and that is common sense too. If you think about it from a IO's point of view, like I said, that's a strange coincidence. More so if you use the words you used to describe the situation, because you are looking for "chances" after you separated. Chances of what? Chances of reconciling because you love her? I hope you see where I am getting at.

Visajourney is for the most part a DIY site, but I think that due to the fact that you're from Ghana and your short timeline, you'll be better off with an experienced attorney that can guide you.

Reviewing this thread I do not see anyone who is accusing you of fraud.  What you have been given is some common sense advice based on years of experience in dealing with the US immigration process, USCIS, etc.  The specific timing of events, from marriage, filing AOS, date of AOS interview, date of separation, date the divorce was finalized, and date when the conditional green card was issued, will be scrutinized by USCIS when you file an I-751 with a divorce waiver.  Yes, the ex-wife or estranged wife, whichever applies, can send USCIS evidence of anything regarding your case.  Whether they investigate or do anything about it would be up to USCIS.  The reference to fraud applies to certain countries, including Ghana, where there have been numerous problems in the past.  There is a standard level of scrutiny for any I-751 application to remove conditions, a higher level for a divorce waiver, and an even higher level when the timeline looks suspicious and a high-fraud country is involved.  You are right to have doubts, so do more research, consult with a good immigration attorney, and file a strong I-751 package with a divorce waiver.  Good luck as you navigate the process!

So your AOS is still pending, and you are already planning to divorce your spouse once you get the greencard. Yeah that will look suspicious to the reviewing officer, no doubt.

Yes, when a USC reports a divorce to USCIS its usually because the USC suspects fraud and wants to report the foreign spouse. Is OP worried that his spouse will do this?

[GEOntificator 281]

Based on the answer OP provided unless the separation/divorce began before the GC was issued there should be no problems. USCIS will scrutinize a bit more but given that OP entered marriage in good faith it is VERY likely to lift conditions.

 

Now, if the separation or divorce happened before the GC was issued and the OP failed to notify the USCIS then this may become a huge problem. When OP applies for I-751 and produces separation/divorce papers this will be an issue if the USCIS officer notices it.

 

OP has not been upfront with all the facts therefore we cannot help.

Thanks for this insight and thanks to everyone for your contributions.

This. I assume OP passed scrutiny enough for i485, unless there's something glaringly obvious to misrepresentation somewhere then they'll likely be successful in ROC. That said I'd strongly recommend the OP used an immigration attorney to file and attend any interviews with.
