The 2 posters giving false hope to the OP and encourage her to move forward with this nonsense have no clue what they are talking about

and do not understand immigration law.

The ex-husband could already be a USC. He's certainly been a LPR long enough, 9 years of marriage + 3 years of divorce = 12 years total.

The other poster who mentioned a child out of wedlock hung up naturalization is missing the picture. In that scenario (which who knows if its real, no links provided), it sounds like the LPR tried to naturalize on the 3 year rule, 3 years of LPR while married to a USC, and couldn't prove they lived in marital union because of the affair. So the person waited 5 years to naturalize on the 5 year rule, which is open to any LPR and not tied to marriage to a USC. Very different situation.

OP, let it go. Let it go, let it go.

Exactly so ! People just pull random stuff out of their heads to justify something completely different.

I had sponsored my Mexican citizen ex-husband for 9 yrs and 2 months; and now: as of Feb 17th, 2013, divorced him and just recently found out during our marriage he fathered a child with another woman, the child is now 7 yrs old, and I've been divorced from him 3 years now. This means he fathered a child the last 4 years we were still married unknown to me. He became very abusive and emotionally cruel. We no longer had intimate relations the last 4 years we were married and now I know why. He ended up marrying this other woman May 15, 2014, and they recently bought a huge house valued at $310,000 Jan 20 2015. I am not sure if he has obtained his Naturalization for US .Citizenship, but I do believe he violated his green card rights by fathering a child out of wedlock and continued to be married to me for 4 more years. He had his green card 10 yr permanent resident card the entire time we were married 9 years and 2 months. I believe he deceived me. Are their any penalities that can be held against him if he tries to get his Naturalization or can he be deported due to the deception during our marriage and fathering a ####### child? I just found out from a friend who saw his Facebook page and that of his wife and a picture of his Daughter. This needless to say has further devastated me and made me realize he was living 2 lives during our marriage and having another family unknown to me. I had gone through alot with this man traveling to Mexico 3 times at my expense and going for interview at American consulate for our marriage to end up my living an abusive existence the last 3-4 years being married and being horribly emotionally abused and demeaned. I need to know if there are any Legal avenues for Immigration to take against him. To deport him or bar him with a penality of 5 more years before he can pursue a Naturalization. This has turned into a total waste of many years and pain mentallly for me. Thanks for any info you can provide. Willow 1948

You've been divorced 3 years. Now you're angry, having been snooping around online, and are seeking to get back at him. How do you know he bought a huge house and what the value is? Facebook? Are you stalking your ex?

I'm sorry, but everyone on this thread that has told you there is nothing you can do is correct. There are no penalties that punish poor morals. There is no legal way you can make him suffer, or get him deported, and banned, as you so gleefully hope. There is nothing at all that you can do, except move on with the rest of your life. Harboring this kind of anger and revengeful thoughts will get you exactly nowhere. It only poisons you, and can ruin the rest of your life. Move on, and stop looking back.

It would make that difference that the man didn't get a child in the middle of the marriage as the OP things he might did.

And? This changes nothing for the OP who has been divorced for quite a while from an ex-spouse she does not trust.
