Verge of divorce - I 751 condition removal(moved to local office April 15) - N400 filed Dec ‘18 - estimated completion time - sept’18

TLDR : any issues I might face ? Is it an N400 interview ? Any estimate on how long it will take at the New York county office.

 

Can someone please help me with the implications from this. I’m mentally screwed by my spouse and am not sure which state I am in. 

Been asked to separate for giving “us” a chance . Then told that “I” should leave the house else there’s no hope for “us”. When I stand up and say that I’d rather stay while “you” can go ahead, being told that maybe needs 3-4 days and will

ReConsider. 

Mind you the sibling is crashing at couch and I’m getting total blackout from them.

It’s effing messed up. There’s hope for “us” but little to none if I don’t leave the place instead of them , while my spouse needs emotional and mental space?! I support it but how does it change to I should be the one vacating in a days notice.

 

But please tell me I don’t have to go through torture so close to being able to feel stable.

 

I went to an Ivy League and top university in my country.

 

Few years ago I Left H1B and OPT time and STEM extensions on the table for my “spouse” as being an American traveling the world with no job and their trust fund is cool.

 

I’m not an American but I don’t want instability again.

Just want to know if I can do this if my nightmare comes true.

 

Separation according to my spouse is a way towards divorce. And somehow it’s also last ditch on my spouse’s end to save our marriage ?!

 

Any idea on any reliable immigration assistance numbers ?

Sorry to hear about your challenges. Keep your head up.

 

Your I-751 is fine, so long as you can show your marriage was legit. Search for I-751 divorce waiver to find out more, if it gets to that.

 

N-400 is in jeopardy, if you filed as spouse of a US citizen. You must show that you're living in a marital union up until the naturalization ceremony (I think), so you'll be denied if you filed under the 3-year rule. Do not try to hide the circumstances of your marriage from USCIS; the consequences are severe. You can still file for citizenship again after you've been resident for 5 years.

 

Good luck!

It is unfortunate that you have to go thru this separation of marriage.  

 

Nonetheless, you are not the first and will not be the last applicant to endure this during the on-going immigrant processing phase on your road from LPR to naturalization. Just have proof showing that your marriage was done in good faith and your separation was not because of false info in your application. 

 

Stay positive and remain hopeful that you will come out unscathed and get past this sour patch.
