Now that she has obtained her green card she is completely different toward me. We dated a long time and now she is mean. I now know that I made a mistake but want to know if I can call immigration on her or get help in this matter. I'm open to suggestions and any advice.

  1. Immigration probably won't help you, but you should see if they can. They might at least be able to suggest a course of action.

    Here's something that may help:

    REMOVING CONDITIONAL RESIDENCE

    If the marriage is less than two years old when the foreign-born spouse becomes a permanent resident, the green card will expire after a two-year period. Both spouses must submit a joint petition (form I-751) to remove the two-year condition within the 90-day period immediately preceding the end of the two year period.

    If the marriage has terminated by reason of divorce, death of the citizen spouse or spousal abuse, the foreign-born spouse may apply for a waiver of the joint petition requirement.

    On April 10, 2003, the CIS issued a policy memorandum which states that a person who has obtained permanent residence based upon a marriage to a U.S. citizen can not submit an application for a waiver of the joint petition requirement based on the "good faith" marriage exception to the joint petition requirement until the person has obtained a final dissolution of the marriage.

    It sucks, but you can wait it out and then not submit the petition against the 2 year green card expiry. Once her Green Card expires you can divorce her and she will be an illegal immigrant.

    That's quite dastardly, though.  I would advise that you look into talking to your wife first. You may not realize it, but this could be as a result of a sub-conscious shift in your own behaviour.  Just my $0.02, though.

    Good luck at any rate. It's sad, but our head does not decide who we fall in love with.

    I've included a link to Carl Shutserman's website below. I hope it serves you well.


  2. Just divorce her.

  3. WOW.  That is so sad.  But try and work it out.  See if she wants to go to counseling or something, that is if you want to work it out.  Or even sit down and ask her why she is treating you different

  4. Sounds like you got used buddy.Join the line with all other American,Australian,Canadian,and Western Europeans.Why not,call them,see what can happen.

  5. She could be pregnant? ;)

  6. Well, if you can prove that the marriage was a sham for the sole purpose of obtaining your wife a green card, she COULD get deported, but you would get in trouble as well, so you probably don't really want to go that route.

    Try honestly with your wife...tell her what is bothering you and ask her why she feels the need to act lile that towards you.  She could be under some stress that you don't know about.  You could also try marriage counseling, and, if all else fails, separation and/or divorce.

    Honestly, I don't see what good it would do you to call immigration on her.  Best of luck to you!

  7. looks like she used you.This happens all the time. I think youy should

  8. We don't know you or her.  We haven't heard her side of the story.  Have you?  There are any number of reasons why a couple that dated for ages would start having trouble after the wedding.  Don't automatically assume that she was just after a green card. Why don't you try counseling? Or maybe try talking to her?

  9. Did you marry her for love or green card. If you call immigration tell them the truth and maybe they can stop her green card if you say that you suspect she married you for the card.
