I have a friend who came from Korea on a K-1 Visa.

She married her fiance w/in the 90 days, but she caught him cheating on her. Literally walked in on him cheating.

The problem now is he won't show up for the interview to validate the marriage and unless he does so, she can't get a divorce or citizenship.

Her lawyer didn't properly file the paperwork for an extension for the interview and she has now received a deportation letter from USCIS.

Is there anything that can be done so that she will be able to stay here or at least be able to go back and forth from Korea freely?

Please Help.

Thank you

If she wants to stay in America, she needs to re-open her case. I'd suggest she get a different lawyer to help her with that.

She does not need to adjust her status to obtain a divorce. She may have been attempting to adjust her status BEFORE divorcing under the mistaken assumption that she could stay forever. She would have still had to explain the divorce to remove the conditions from her residency later on.
