Voided

My mom said the same. Because he had this idea he would come here and be rich. He complained about working a job making $15 an hour. Said that wasn't good money. I said for an immigrant with limited English skills that's a lot.  

No he wanted to but my family was against it so I told him we would discuss that later on down the line. Thank goodness I didn't go through with it. 

I didn't see that clause about unsound mind when I read over CA annulment process. He is making me have an unsound mind. I am trying to keep it together because I did everything for this man and know I don't deserve this treatment. 

You know I just looked at your timeline and previous thread. Just for clarification- he entered on a CR visa. So as stated in your other thread he became an LPR upon entry. He just needs to pay the fee and get his conditional GC. Theres nothing you can do about that. He doesnt need "VAWA" he needs to remove conditions on his card. If you guys dont reconcile in the next 2 years he can file it with the divorce decree or under extreme cruelty (a form of VAWA). Just wanted to be clear he doesnt need VAWA (360) but rather the 751 with cruelty waiver.
 
He may not know this. So he may be under the impression he needs to apply for a GC, he may know he just needs to remove conditions. Who knows...But the advice still stands about not being alone with him. The same concept of being accused of domestic violence falsely still applies whether he needs it for the VAWA 360 or the 751 waiver.
 
Theres only one thing you can do that will impact his ability to stay in the US. Or rather 2... One is filing and getting an annulment based on FRAUD. It must be based on fraud. That will prevent him from being able to ROC however he can probably remain in the US on his conditional GC for the full 2 years. Its just when it comes time to ROC and he shows them the annulment based in fraud that he will be denied and have to leave. If you do get an annulement based in fraud you can send it to USCIS but I dont know if they will take action on it and order him removed or wait until he applies for ROC.
 
The second thing you can do is file for divorce. It is preferable if you can divorce based on grounds that will work against him like fraud or abandonment. You also need to make sure you hold firm to the dates as they happened. The shorter the period of marriage before separation the harder it is to ROC. You were only together a short time. Apx 2 weeks. Hold firm to having those dates be in the divorce decree. It would be worth it for you to fight it out and insist on a finding of fault (his) in the divorce however if you dont have the strength for that then a mutual 'irreconcilable differences' wont have the same immigration impact but would still be an uphill battle for him. 
 
Annulments are possible even as a DIY however they are hard to obtain. Speak with a local attny to see what options you have and their opinion on its success. Again the thing I would be most worried about is his lack of knowledge about the process and being misinformed or informed of fraudulent paths he may attempt a DV charge against you to help his case. Stop all contact with him for your own sake. Seek legal aid if you can not afford an attny. Get free consults and file on your own if you cant find any pro bono assistance. The county clerk can provide you with all the forms you need and answer questions about the process. Sorry this has happened to you but be strong and take care of yourself. 
 
As for the medical bills, yes you are technically responsible via the 864 but just so you know its rarely enforced. The gov has found it costs more to collect from sponsors then they actually collect so no one attempts to collect on it. There is also the risk he can sue you for support under the 864. Theres a thread in this subforum on that that you can read through. He would have to be very educated to do such and Im not sure he is. An annulement based on fraud is your best bet to ensure he has to leave the country but a quick filing of divorce with it being his fault can also ensure he can not remain. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
 
Happy Holidays. 

Yes CR1. No he doesn't have it in hand. I just received a notice in the mail about it 2 days ago. I didn't tell him though. 
 
When he was lying saying he wanted to reconcile he asked me to either go with him to immigration or write a letter stating there was no fraud just a misunderstanding. I said I would write the letter only after he returned. He said well in that case you don't trust me so I can never return. I said I see what you're doing you just want me to write the letter to ensure your status isn't in jeopardy. It's all about the green card. 

It's really unfair how the laws are for the immigrant. All they have to do is lie and claim abuse and get to keep their status. However, the US citizen really doesn't have any recourse. Thank you so much for your assistance. I am going to start putting all this together. Last night I was feeling helpless and that I just had to let him stay here and get away with this. But your advice has inspired me. Thank you. 

It's possible but you need to write well the letter and attach all evidence.
Write something like ...
I believe it is a possible Fraud because:
1. very short stay in US, 3 weeks and getting away for no reason
2. .......
3. ......
4. ........
Please, see the evidence attached
1. ....
2. .....
3. .......
 
This way is much more easy to read and see for authorities

just think well and write, get chats and see what can help you.
It's your life for years to come, try to clean this mess up and help the Immigration to fight this kind of Fraud

It's good, it's soon, usually they give much later. Try to chat and get more evidence, in the letter write how long were you married and how long real time in marriage as well how long he had in US just snapping and get away. All in separated lines easy to read and see how short is really this marriage and how fake is it from his side

Thank you so much. I will look into this. 

Hello all,
 
First and foremost let me say thank you to all of you who have helped me in this process. I don't know if I would've got through it without you all. 
 
My husband's visa was approved yesterday. He was told it would be ready for pickup in ten days. I logged into the CEAC website a few minutes ago and this status says "Issued." And the box underneath says:
 
Your visa has been printed. Depending on local procedures at the location where you were interviewed, your visa will be mailed or available for pickup soon. If there are further questions, or if we need updated contact information, you will be contacted. 
For more information, please visit TRAVEL.STATE.GOV.   On average now long after issued status is the visa ready for pickup?   Thanks all!!!

OMG OMG OMG
 
I'm watching 90 day fiance with my wife and my phone buzzes, I get an email and I don't think anything of it.
 
Its the NVC, I was really surprised to get a response so quick, its only been 5 days.
So I'm reading it and I'm like, o its going to be nothing.
 
And I read this.
 
 
OMG OMG OMG
 
Now I really wish I had gotten everything together much sooner, I won't be mailing my documents until Wednesday hopefully.
 
You other guys didn't have to send your documents though so I'm wondering what will exactly be expedited here, if the NVC will review faster or send it right away or what.
 
 
 

My case was expedited due to medical reasons, otherwise I don't think it would have been that fast. 

Yay!,

Yay!,

In my experience it doesn't. I wrote a letter to my congresswoman and filed an inquiry.  It caused no additional delays. My case was approved 8/22 after 253 days at Nebraska. 
 
Actually, I got the approval before a response to the inquiry. Finally about a week after the approval they responded to the inquiry 

you guys should look into this site as well. It has some useful information. Good Luck

Getting AOS bill email is not that important, as long as website let you pay the bill. Make sure to print out document cover from  both AOS and IV payment portal. You will need that. Once you have all the document covers, you can send all documents to NVC

A couple hours ago when I checked there was nothing but, I just logged in now and I see the pending transaction.  

It took a few hours before I got the email. So possibly later on today for you.
 
I guess I can wait a few days being that I waited 8 and a half months at Nebraska lol. I am just anxious to get this process moving, I miss my hubby.

At this point I'm impatient for everything
 
 

I told him I was able to choose an agent online but I made a mistake, which is true, and I edited it even though it says you can't make changes. That's when he offered to check and do it for me.
