After coming here in USA, We filed our Green Card ( He is Primary Applicant on EB3 Category with Approved I140), I got the Emloyment authorization Document (EAD). I started working on my EAD but now things are not working between us and I came to know that he got married to me to take ecconomic advantage of me and he used me to pay all his Debt( Credit card and Property).He never loved me. My in laws were keep torturing me and my parents. There were not allowing me to commnicate with my parents in india and if I do, thats nightmare...Till now I was trusting on him blindly and giving all money I earned and He was having total control over all my finances and bcoz of that 1. I do not have any financial security at this moment... 2. He have not renewed my EAD card on time and I lost my job. He cheated me.

Re: Divorce Advise

If you have been a resident in Nevada for 6 weeks, then you can file for divorce in the USA. It will likely be contested.
