I don't know what to do

Here is my stupid story. I met Mo when I was ready to divorce my first husband. I was not ready to remarry but he pushed me saying it was against his religion to live with someone and not be married. I was happy and went for it, it was 5 years ago this month. After we were married I find out that he needs a green card. I didn't know anything about this stuff so I figured no big deal. So 6 months after we married we go for interview, nothing happens. Also I found out at that interview when the immigration officer asked him that he actually came illegally 10 years earlier with a fake passport. So time passed. He owns a couple businesses and things are very stressful. I had to have another back surgery so now I am on disabilty past 3 years unable to do much of anything anymore. I am in pain 24 hrs a day and so on. I figured thats the reason we never go anywhere or do anything together. Now fast forward, he gets a new attoney a few months ago who does a extreme hardship for us. 4 weeks ago we go for interview-he is approved right on the spot for permanent green card. They asked a few questions, they asked him 2 times you own 3 businesses right he says yes. Well guess what happen next. He left. I am pretty sure he is shaked up with someone but I don't know where he is living at. So I am doing a lot of research and such, and I find out he owns more businesses he just didn't want me to know so he lied. I know, with no proof, that he has illegals working for him and he is providing them with a car and his name is on the apartments they live in. I filled for divorce, now I can see the writing was all over the wall, I just never thought he was frauding me. I know call me stupid I am. He efilled our joint tax returns and I signed the check, but I just found out I am supposed to sign something for tax returns, I thought when you efile I did not have to. I found out when I told attorney I tried to get tax returns from account to see whats on them they wouldnt give them to me, and they said well didnt you sign-umm no did I have to! I know he makes ton more money then what is showing on tax returns. I am sure there is a lot more stuff going on then I know about. I have no choice but to turn him in for everything, or is it a waste of time? Thats why I filled for divorce, all his fraud is going to come back on me since I am on tax returns and such. He owns everyting, I have nothing but tons of credit card debt thanks to him. I know save the your stupid comments, I get it, I am.

I can't help with you're soon to be ex, but I wanted to say how sorry I am and you are not stupid you fell in love and he took advantage of that love. Stay strong and hopefully your lawyer can help clean up the tax situation.

Order tax transcipts if the returns where joint returns that will show you everything that was on the taxes. What country is your ex to be from

[Angel012110 19]

Well I am Really Sorry for Your Situation. You are NOT Stupid, You are a Victim. You've had health issues and he seemed shady for the start. I Suggest you go to an accountant to figure out the tax return thing because if you filed a joint return, it can come back to haunt YOU. Everything else is up to you, if you want to go to USCIS and let them know he Lied about everything but that is a PROCESS.... and let me just tell you if I was him I would be scared because Karma is a *****. Hope Everything goes well for you and you can move on from this.

He is from Pakistan. He bought me what ever I wanted and was wonderful, now I know why. But the last year has been bad and I was already thinking divorce then this interview came so fast and I wasn't expecting him to be approved right away. I didn't have money to do anything sooner, I have 2 kids from before so I was worried since I only get 800 a month and thanks to him have credit card debt. I am totally screwed.

You need a top notch divorce attorney to fight for you.

Best wishes.

Iam really sorry fr wht you r going through, but i feel like you shud've said something to IO when you find out he lied to you abt him coming to US on a fake passport? It seems like he used you to do business here.Was it AOS or ROC? you can stil contact with FDN and also report it to USCIS

The officer knew he came on fake passport, I did not. At the last interview I wasnt asked anything. I never knew about any of these things till all this, I have learned a lot. Right now he is somehow hiding a lot of money and I don't know how to find it. He claimed on taxes he made about 42,000. Well the mortgage he got a couple years ago was 161000. He has to Mercedes through a loan, a new Toyota 4runner with a loan, he keeps getting numerous credit cards for 30-40 thousand limit. How is this possible! I am trying to figure out but I keep getting no where. I am sure I am driving my lawyer crazy but I am rushing because he told me he is going to change things to hide it. The last 5 years of my life is one big blur!

If he came on a fake passport, he's probably also using a stolen identity to apply for all this stuff. Find out who's identity it is, if it is a stolen one, and see if you can't find and inform that person.

Call the Department of Labor in your state, let them know there's people illegally working in his businesses.

I myself kind of find it hard to believe you didn't know any of this beforehand. I think maybe we had some sort of deal that he'd provide for you well, and you'd get him a green card for it, but now that the permanent card has been got earlier than expected due to the extreme hardship petition, the deal's gone tits up?

If you don't mind getting possibly arrested and fined, you can always tell USCIS that you knowingly lied about everything to them for the purposes of immigration fraud. Green cards have been removed for that before.

I had no idea he was looking for a green card. He acted like he wanted to be married for the first couple years. Then after my back surgery that was it. He stopped helping me and being with me and when we would talk about things he would just say work is stressful just be patient. Believe me if I knew he just wanted a green card I would have divorced a few years ago when things changed. I kept thinking everything will be ok. He is not using a stolen id or anything like that. There was never any deal or even mention of anything of the sorts. We seldom talked about a green card, he just waited. I didnt go out of my way to help him in any way.I thought about divorcing him before but I had no money, I have 2 teens and only have 800 a month what was I gonna do, yeah wait for him and hope everything would be like it use to be. I never considered my marriage a lie until the last 4 weeks where its obvious of his intentions-hes gone. And as far as the "shady" things going on, I have no proof of anything. He as I am finding out hid everything from me, businesses-girlfriends-money. Since my last back surgery I seldom leave the house so he knew it was easy to hide and lie. I never lied about anything never and never will.
