Legal Question in Family Law in California
I married my wife in good faith last year on November 27th - I am a US citizen and she received her conditional green card through me in May of this year - I got her a great job and right after her first paycheck she left and seperated citing marital difficulties. She is now residing in a seperate apartment in the same city, pretty much fully established as an independant individual and has not communicated directly with me for the past 3 months since she has been gone. The only thing that her family has told me is that "she needs time as she is confused and does not want to make the wrong decision". She has removed all personal items from our apartment and the only thing now connecting me to her is the marriage certificate that she took with her from our joint safe box when she left.
I have tried everything from emails, texts, letters to communicate with her but to no avail - only silence prevails. I am still paying all the bills including hers that she left behind - I still have her on my health insurance and cell phone plan - I have not cut off anything but she has cut everything off from me. I have a feeling that my wife has legal counsel and is trying to use silence as a tool to move my hand towards divorce so I take all blame and responsibility and she gets off scott free. I also believe that she may be trying to remove conditions from her green card during this time using some alternative means. I feel so helpless in this situation and am looking for some answers.
Q. What can I do about her conditional green card - can I revoke, cancel or affect it in any way or not? Can her legal status be revoked or cancelled? What obligations can I enforce on my wife financially during this time of seperation when she refuses to communicate with me? What legal means can I use to make her talk and reveal what her intentions are?

You need to hire a lawyer before she cleans you out and/or leaves you in serious debt. It will be worth the cost of the consultation. Good luck, and remember there are many fish in the sea, and some of them know what love is!
