She needs to enter the US prior to her immigrant visa expiring. She can leave as soon as she processes through immigration but she must enter the US to initiate the issuance of her green card.

You are being set up for a VAWA filing. Get an attorney to defend you, make sure you have no contact of any kind with the spouse. That means no texting, no social media, no contact at all. Continue with your plan to withdraw the affidavit of support and report any fraud you can substantiate. Divorce and move on, if they file for VAWA you will have no way to know or obtain any information about it.

It is mostly attorneys advising to apply for the K-3 or people who have not researched the visa process. Attorneys recommend it because it is more money for them (add in the fees to file for AOS) and others because they don't know better. It takes the same amount of time to receive a K-3 as a CR-1 (roughly) so there is no benefit to the K-3.

No they haven't lived together for more than a year is my understanding. Where do you get that he has know her for nearly 10 years? She met him, conned him for a green card so she could provide a better life for her children, and the marriage broke up when he found out about this.

Your only choice is a spousal visa since you are married. You are correct that the K-3 is virtually extinct and even if you did somehow manage to get it there would still be months of waiting. Best to file the I-130 now, as in today, and get the ball rolling.

Re-read my post, pull the affidavit of support NOW. Just because she says she will leave, just because you take her to the airport, does not mean she will leave. She might just be stringing you along until she gets her green card.

You would be eligible fives years minus 90 days from the date of LPR since on your green card.

I don't have all the answers but I would have called the police the first time you had evidence that she was abusing your son. I would not wait to "collect" more video footage while the abuse is still on-going in hopes of having divorce judges or USCIS on your side.
Your child is being abused! You have video footage and his very own testimony. (You see how your wife works. Your son is so afraid of her that he recanted his story in her presence). Why are you not stopping the abuse immediately? Why are you biding your time knowing she is building a negative and false case against you? But more importantly, WHY ARE YOU NOT STOPPING THE ABUSE IMMEDIATELY?????

I agree with cancel the AOS NOW!. As in stop reading this and write the letter withdrawing the I-864 right now. Mail it today, at the post office, return receipt or at least tracking. Make an infopass appointment and submit the same notarized letter there. Are you still reading and not doing.......do now finish reading later.
She is milking you for all you have and when you have nothing left she will be gone. Really you paid for her apartment in another country, you are paying her credit card bills for her. She is taking you for a ride and laughing the whole way.

Ditto Penguin as well as you need to understand mother-in-law can get UP TO six months on her stay, six months is the longest given. An extension is usually only granted in exceptional cases such as serious illness of themself or a close family member or a medical condition that prevents them from traveling. Even then, assuming she gets a tourist visa and gets the six months stay that does not mean she can hop a plane, leave the US for a few days or weeks and then come back for another six months. It is a tourist visa to visit not to live or work in the US.
Assuming she doesn't already have a tourist visa she will need to show strong ties to her country such as employment, home, family, business, etc. in order to obtain one. It sounds like she doesn't have these ties.

We are not criminal attorneys nor can we give legal advice. Many of your questions are specific to your case and would need an attorney who can look at the charges and determine what has or has not happened.

He still needs his EAD or green card in addition to his social security card for him to be eligible to work. The solution to both problems would be to file for the AOS for both of them.

You can file the petition as a qualifying relative. A qualifying relative to file the waiver would be a spouse or parent, a child cannot file this waiver for a parent.
