Yes, I do agree that a person can have good intentions in the beginning and stray later on. Me questioning her original intentions came from her admitting that she was only staying with me until her citizenship came through or that she wasn't worried about getting caught since "she knew how to handle me". Just doesn't seem like somebody who went into this with good intentions from day 1. All that said, based on the input I've gotten I'm not even going to bother letting USCIS know what happened. The best thing for me to do is minimize the damage from the divorce and heal/move on.

She has 5 more years/20 quarters to hit that mark, that is what I was getting at. Though I think she may be able to become a citizen faster than that...

Yes, more and more this seems to be the best thing to do. I guess I have my answer whether it is worth trying to tell USCIS what happened.

I understand we submitted a lot of information demonstrating the marriage was real, and for my part it was. The question I have is whether her saying "Hey I'm only with this guy until I get citizenship out of him and then I'm out" constitutes fraud on her part in the eyes of USCIS. All the doc/photos evidence etc I submitted were real, and I had no way of knowing she was going to do all this. As for no fault divorce, I understand cheating plays no role in the divorce process. What I do assume though is if she has been deported (And I don't even know if that is really a possibility) when I file divorce should would not be around to contest thus making for a quick and easy divorce. Though what I have gathered so far suggests the best thing to do is file divorce ASAP, and inform USCIS of what happened. Based on what evidence I can provide I guess they'll decide if they want to act.

Yes I know, but she is employed and makes enough money to be on her own. She is well above the poverty limit, plus I paid everything while we were together so when she left she had over $20k in the bank. There is no reason she should become a public charge over the next 5 years that are left on my I-864.

Thanks for commenting! And I really don't know, as far as I was concerned everything was real. But I guess it's up to USCIS to determine whether her intentions were bad from the start? Or they may say "Hey based on what we had at the time of your marriage we had no reason to believe anything was off, this is just a case of someone going astray". Though I do think the fact that she said in writing "I am only with him until I get citizship and once I have that we can run away and be together openly" warrants a second look at the whole thing.

Yep, I hear you. That seems to be the best route forward.

Wow I guess I really have no other recourse than just going through with the divorce. Thanks for the heads up.
-
Well I already avoid/ignore her and have not seen her since the day she willingly walked out my front door. There's no reason for me to do anything different now. And yes once the divorce is going I'll make sure to direct all contact through lawyer. Thank you!
-
Thanks for weighing in! I've thought of offering this to her. Something like a gentleman's agreement saying "hey I'll help you process your citizenship if you agree to not fight me in anyway in the divorce and let me move on afterwards" But I think that given how untrustworthy she has already proven to be, there's nothing stopping her from accepting my help then screwing me later on. Whether I involve USCIS it seems best to just get on with the divorce and move on.
-
Thank you for the clear and concise input! I will look into directing my story and evidence I can produce to the FDNS officer at my local USCIS office. I will also get divorce started ASAP. Thanks for the well wishes!
-
Well I'm not trying to be vindictive. I actually found her a new house to rent, negotiated with the landlord for her since she never had credit, and paid to fill the house full of furniture. Though the main reason why I did all this is to be able to demonstrate that despite everything I was still looking out for her well being and wasn't interested in revenge. But all that aside, if what she did is considered fraud then its only fair that she accept the consequences. If USCIS says no harm no foul, then I'm perfectly fine accepting that too.
-
Ah I should have known haha, thanks! And no chance of any DV accusations, I wish her well but I never want to see this chick again.
-
Thanks for the reply! Yes that would for sure be a nightmare to deal with on top of everything else...Well everyone seems to think divorce ASAP. I think I'll still send the letter, if the consider it great. If not then at least I'm still moving on with divorce.
-
Thank you for your reply! Yes divorce now seems to be the consensus. I definitely plan to not only stay away, but move on in another relationship. What is "DV" short for?
