Hello, my situation is that in march,2007,i filed jointly with my US citizen husband I751, to remove the conditions.We are thinking about the dissolution of our marriage because he has been seeing someone else, me , to be honest ,too, that is why it is dissolution.What is going to happen now? will i get the conditions removed? will INS find out anything if we do get divorced? what if i want to marry a noncitizen? will his alien status be adjusted or the app will be denied ? is it useles to file I 130 and 485 for him at all?

Re: immigration marriage and divorce

Your conditional status is removed after two years as proof that your marriage was not a sham, that is, was not convenient to staying in this country. A divorce does not mean that the marriage wasn't bonified. But you will be questioned if you divorce before the condition is removed.

Re: immigration marriage and divorce

I'm sorry to hear about your circumstances. However, there is certainly a decent chance that we can get your conditional green card made permanent. The key is showing that the marriage was "entered" in good faith and there is evidence that I can outline that you could collect to show that. Also, I would ask whether there was any type of abuse in the relationship. That may also be a grounds to get your permanent green card. There are a lot of questions to discuss to give you accurate advice. I would strongly (very strongly) suggest that you speak to an immigration attorney about your case. I am in NJ but can still help you if you would like to speak to me. Good luck.
