I'm writing for a friend's case. She recently came to the US on a fiancee visa. She and her husband only met once in person although they have been constantly communicating online before they met. She truly adores this guy and she came to the US in good faith, hoping and praying that things would go well between them. As days go by, the true character of her husband is drastically showing and she feels overly controlled, unfairly treated and does not feel happy at all. Her situation is made worse by the fact that her husband's adult daughter lives with them. This daughter does not work and depends on her daddy financially. The daughter stays in the master's bedroom while she stays in the guest room. The daughter knows her daddy's bank account because she has access to it while the wife does not even know how much her husband is earning. There are many other instances and statements coming from the mouth of the husband himself which are evidence of how important this daughter over her as the wife. She already filed for her adjustment of status and waiting for the interview. She wants to undergo marriage counseling with her husband if he agrees to it. Unless there are changes in their situation, she is in a miserable condition. My question, is there a way for her to be able to stay as a permanent resident in case she decides to separate from or divorce him?
