Hi all..

I'm new on here, thought maybe I could get some help with my current situation..

I married two years ago to an American citizen and recently divorced. We never reached the 10 year point, so my permanent residence card expires pretty soon..
Thing is.. I have met a very special someone and now I'm wondering what would happen if I overstayed for any period of time, maybe a few months or so... Would it mean Deportation or 'Removal'...
Perhaps there is someway of fighting for my residency that I'm not aware of?....

We want time to save enough money and get a few things situated while living in the USA before we go off into the world.. But what are the risks??

Once you are divorced, you can remove conditions on your green card by yourself.

This is not a K-1 visa petition question, it has to do with removal of conditions.
