Dear Inquirer:

Your wife cannot take away your green card. Only an immigration judge could take away your green card and there would have to be evidence of fraud or at least mistake in the issuing process.

I recommend that you visit www.hanlonlawgroup.com or email [email protected] if you would like to schedule an appointment for a confidential consultation to discuss this matter further.

If you didn't marry your wife simply to get the green card, then you have nothing to be worried about. If you did, then this is a problem that could become real at any time in the future.

Absolutely, it could affect your green card. This is why you should get an immigration attorney. If you are in Southern California contact me to discuss your case.
