Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York

I married a foreigner and remained married 4 years. She convinced me to help her parents by making a home for "us" as well as them. She recieved her green card and I had restrctions removed and after completing the home, sending my life possessions and draining my bank account...she abandoned the marriage and is filing for divorce. She is also denying my permanent visa so I can not return to the home I paid for with my lifes savings. What can I do about her permanent status? What can I do about the home? What can I do... I need Help. Please Help me.

You say that you married a foreigner yet she's denying your permanent visa? If she is the foreign national and not you, why do you have a visa issue? It sounds like you should hire an attorney and file for divorce ASAP to stop the financial bleeding.

If your wife has had the conditions on her temporary permanent status removed with your assistance already, I am afraid there is not much to be done to reverse that.

I do both immigration work and divorce work in downstate NY, so I'd you are looking to retain counsel, feel free to contact my firm.

Good luck.
