I have yet to file for conditional residency due to financial reasons. I am, and I'm sure she would feel the same way, miserable. We entered this as a good faith marriage but it has fallen apart. Can I still receive my conditional residency if we divorce after 4 years of being married?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707077151291202104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34138161.post-61774676766141321752012-08-01T13:10:34.609-07:002012-08-01T13:10:34.609-07:00Hello!

Yes, your spouse can always write into CIS and claim that you married him for a green card but if there is no proof of this, CIS usually won't start an investigation after a natz interview, especially for a marriage that has been well documented with joint documents and is long in duration. <br /><br />These are general conclusions. Always discuss the specifics of your case with an experienced, immigration attorney through a in-depth consultation.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525869965240842380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34138161.post-53010983812421065402012-05-23T18:53:42.946-07:002012-05-23T18:53:42.946-07:00hi...i really need help ma'am.

I am in love with a wonderful man that has tried repeatedly to work things out with his USC wife. She is abusive to him, and doesn't treat him with the least bit of respect. He is just now applying for the removal of conditions, but we don't know what to do. He is even willing to be deported, just so long as he can end his marriage. The only reason that he wants to avoid deportation, is to be with me and make our situation easier once he can get divorced. Will he be deported if he divorces her? Will he have to apply under the 5 year rule?

This reflects a new policy memo that CIS released this year. You are still going to have to show that the marriage was bona fide (a lot of joint documents) and that the marital breakup is not your fault, if you file for the waiver, which is easier said than done unfortunately).<br /><br />If you file a joint petition and the divorce will not be final within the 87 days (which happens a lot when the other spouse is screwing with you), then you need to consider the other two waiver possibilities: (1) extreme cruelty; or (2) extreme hardship. for more about these waivers and what they entail, visit our website at www.humanrightsattorney.com.<br /><br />If you have already successfully lifted the condition off of your residency and then get divorced, then this will only impact your naturalization case. You must be living with and in marital union with a US citizen spouse in order to qualify for natz within 3 years of your initial AOS approval date (regardless of whether you had conditional status; look on your green card where it says, "resident since . . ."). If you get divorced, you're not going to be able to do this, and will be likely eligible for naturalization in five years from your initial LPR grant date. The other issue that can arise is during the naturalization interview itself, where CIS can ask you more in- depth about the bona fide nature of the marriage since the divorce happened so quickly after you got your CLPR released. Be prepared to show a lot of joint documentation and substantial, documented reason for the break-up.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525869965240842380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34138161.post-11870660617794578072009-09-16T01:26:44.605-07:002009-09-16T01:26:44.605-07:00Can you give me an advice?

We migrated from an island in the pacific to here in California June 2008 and lived with other relatives until we had our own place. My question is that, she is no longer happy with our marriage as I am. We are seeing that we sometimes are not really looking in the same directions. She's 21 and I'm 28 years old. A big part I believe of her being unhappy is because of the knowledge of my sickness. If I apply for dissolution of our marriage, will I still be able apply for the lifting of the conditions on my residence? Or will I get deported? Do I ask her to file for us(dissolution)?
