Agreed -- accelerate your move.  Meanwhile, try to work out your issues, and continue working on them after you arrive.

I suppose you could re marry and file to sponsor her to immigrate to the US.

Makes me feel sad for all the folks in our VAWA thread here...

This is part of what makes it harder for those of us with legitimate relationships. I hope they throw the book at everyone involved here.

Random update in case anyone cared 
 
I asked my husband to post it weeks ago but he did not it ended up in our garage and lucky the guy who’s green card I found contacted me for the first time today 
and now will arrange to deliver it back to him 🙂

Just to add, the prenup is probably unenforceable if he coerced you into signing it. As others have said, your first concern is your safety -- get out with as much documentation as possible to show your marriage was entered into in good faith. Next, you need to talk to a competent lawyer about the divorce. Personally, I would not try to DIY a divorce, particularly one where the other spouse is volatile and abusive. Yes, lawyers are expensive, but you need to have your interests protected here -- financially and in terms of safety. Worry about the immigration stuff after. You have months (it looks like) until you are eligible to remove conditions on your GC anyway.
 
Be safe and we are here to listen and help where we can. ❤️ 

Correct the person who interviewed me was clearly using the same site provided by USCIS to choose the questions (probably chose the ten Radom questions test) and the questions she asked me I happened to have got about 30 mins prior while I was testing myself while waiting to go inside her office and in almost the same order but 2 questions 
that part of the interview lasted about a minute as she fired off questions and I answered back right away 
 
 
but @larnar1309do what’s best for you it’s your interview so whatever works best for you do it good luck

This is what I used you really do not need to buy anything 
I had my interview in January and passed and this was all I used and only started studying once I received notification of interview in December 
wish you all the 🍀 luck 

So I found someone’s Green Card (wallet) no address inside but traced the name on google and Facebook but all the information is out of date (I called the job listed as “current” on fb but they said he had not worked there for months I sent message on fb without any response 

the Green  card is still valid until 2024 I don’t want to post it at the address on Google as he may not live there and it’s a wallet with credit cards (prob cancelled) 
 
do I had it to the police in the hopes it does get back to him  do I post the green card to USICS ?
 
I know it’s so expensive to replace the card so was hoping I could get it back to them 
 
on fb shows current city is now updated to a city in the The Philippines for him 
 
 

C'mon man, when i told him you can abandon your GC if moving abroad permanently, i didn't mean abandon it on a street.
 
Jokes apart, good thing you are trying to help. If yOu can't hunt him down, best is to mail it to the uscis.

It does look suspicious.  Not just that you got divorced so soon after becoming a citizen (there isn't much you can do about that now), but also that you don't seem to be waiting very long between getting divorced and filing for a new partner.  Why not take your time?  Get to know each other better, get multiple visits in, and put together a stronger packet.  It will be better long-term for your relationship, too. 

I am confused, you said your ex, are you divorced?

Don't be too harsh on yourself, it happens. 
You were not the first to be late, and they already asked you to reschedule. Breathe.  

You both will be charged with any of the following: kidnapping, human trafficking, child abduction. He will then be deported and banned from the US after serving jail time. 

That sounds reasonable.

FOR THE RECORD: 
 
I'm not asking for sympathy nor looking for attention. Im sharing my story to give warning it can happen to anyone if you are not on point with immigration issues.  

my bad i got stucked  with a crazy inmate that we have to sedate him. (i worked in prison)😝
 
LOL i can't edit my first post so here comes part 2:
 
Continuation: 
 
July  2011 that we flew back to Philippines with the plan to have our children go to school and my wife stays with her parents in Davao. ICE gave her a piece of paper to board PAL and needs to be certified in the US Embassy  when  she arrive to her home country. After we arrived in Manila, we went straight to the US Embassy and i dreaded that we have to stay for a long line to get in. Mind you, we have 2 kids in tow and the youngest is barely over a year old. Fortunately, i have my green card and CA drivers license with me that the guard in the embassy let us in reserved for US Citizens only. My wife was told to go one of the interview room and she gave the ICE paper to the lady in charge.  We left Manila and flew to Davao the next day. It's was a surreal experienced for us since we never thought it could happened. Both of us come to the US legally, both professionals, no records of arrest or any shady dealings. And yet, we are being punished for an error made by her employers. But it is what it is, we have to moved on and adapt to the situation. 
 
After spending 4 weeks in Philippines, i have to go back to California  and leaving my family was one of the hardest things ive experienced in my life. It was really hard specially for my 4 year old and he keeps crying it was unfair and why i have to leave. It's a bittersweet goodbye but i choose not to give up but keeps moving forward. After i arrived in Stockton, alone in the apartment.. it just hits me that i'm pretty much by myself with my family thousands of miles away. Talked about my faith was tested that it almost reached to its  breaking point. I only have 2  options, give up or fight back. It's gonna be long fight since the incident triggers the 10 year bar. Still a lot of unknowns and i have to be strategic with my approach.
 
First, fired my worthless lawyer and hired a very well known immigration attorney. Retainer fee is $15,000 up front and a payment plan for another $15,000 but they have to asked me several times if there was fraud involved. I told the attorney, no.. it was just mistake of wrong filing of paper works from her previous employer.  My wife was just out of status for 3 months but for some reasons it triggered a deportation hearing. So they accepted the case and i have to submit all the necessary documents and have to pay all the fees filed through the INS. Needs to file those waivers I 601 and other stuff necessary to win the case. 
 
Fast forward: 
 
I dreaded the week end, being alone can easily consumed someones mental health. One of my lawyers paralegal recommended to see a psychiatrist to checked   if i suffered depression, that will help the case. I told her NO.. i refused to be a VICTIM. Im sure there are other positive ways to get it  done besides that diagnosis will be permanent on my medical records. So i have to send pictures and other documents that showed  im rooted in my area. 
 
2013 I received my US citizenship and went to Fresno ALONE for my Naturalization. 
 
Fast forward:
Albeit the distance between us, my family were thriving in Davao. My kids get high honors and were into sports. I come home once a year for 4 weeks that's our bonding moments and we treasured every time we were together. Coming back to CA was always bittersweet. 
 
Late 2016 when i was notified by my lawyer I 485 was approved and my wife was scheduled to be interviewed in the US embassy. 
 
Late 2017 when my wife was given an immigrant VISA. After she had the passport and visa in hand and i scheduled a flight ASAP. I arrived Friday in Philippines and flew back on Sunday with my whole family in stow. 
 
Fast forward:
My wife is back working and had her green card. In 2020 she will be eligible for her citizenship. 
 
Hard Lessons:
1. It was costly lesson for us. We lost our house and got hit big time financially from lawyers fees, lost wages, travel expenses etc. But in the end, Family matters most.
2. Take seriously and be on point with your immigration issues.
3. The US Government is not your friend but i still love this adoptive country and im a PROUD AMERICAN. 
4. Resiliency and mental toughness. Go get it. 
 

Type a letter to USCIS, stating your names, her A#, and when you filed the I-485, and state that you are formally withdrawing your I-864.  Include a copy of the I-797 (NOA1), if USCIS has sent that acknowledgment to you.
 
Mail the letter certified/return receipt, and strive to get an InfoPass appointment in which you hand over a copy of that letter personally, to a USCIS officer.

She left? Good. The longer she is under the same roof as you the more chances she has to claim a VAWA situation. She can’t claim you were abusive if she wasn’t there. Don’t let her back in the home unless you have a witness. 

If she says she is going to claim VAWA that means you should never be alone with her, even for one moment! If she won't leave, pack a bag and go stay on someone's couch. I'm being dead serious. If she is looking for any way to stay in this country do not doubt that she will accuse of of physical abuse and call the police. We have seen it time and again here. Protect yourself FIRST! 
 
It is not your fault that she cannot work. Full stop.
 
Cancel AoS, divorce her and move on.
 
Good luck and keep us updated,

File for Divorce, Cancel I-864, move out into a new apartment. Pay the remainder of the lease so she can stay until the lease is up and then she is on her own. 

Agree with all the others. First and foremost protect yourself since she is 'threatening' VAWA, though like the others have stated this is a baseless claim since you did file for a work permit for her, it's out of your hands and not your fault.
Second,as hard as it is I'd write USCIS and pull the affidavit of support, file for divorce, and have her removed from the house otherwise things may just get harder and worse for you. 
Offer her the money home, document it, and move on, but don't get stuck being liable for the I-864.

1. She cannot remain in the US if you cancel AoS. She has no legal path to stay.
2. She can claim VAWA but she needs proofs.  You clearly didn't prevent her from working if she doesn't even have EAD yet...
 
Advice? Documents EVERYTHING she says/writes/texts. Do NOT be alone with her. Contact lawyer. Cancel AoS. Divorce. Move on.
