    ImagineMe got a reaction from Jordanian Bride in Why does the US hate AOS from tourist visas?   
    I have a now ex chinese wife who abandoned the marriage when she thought she was going to get her 10 year greencard without an interview. She started immigrating her brother on false pretenses by getting him here on the tourist visa, then going to a lawyer in Chicago, which decided to have him start going to church in the US here, then file for Religious Asylum. She is also hiding her father here after he entered on a tourist visa. I've learned that anyone and everyone wants a quick way into our country and will use that tourist visa as a start. I think that's why it can be difficult to attain one.

    I had already retrieved it because I had all the evidence I needed to make my decision. I want to use it on my own vehicle in case it ever gets stolen and I can recover it.

    I'm sorry this is happening to you. So stressful.
    But, it's good to know she is communicating with you even if it is only through lawyers. 
    Wishing you strength, a quick sale on your house and a pain free divorce.

    Yeah she definitely isn't missing as she responded to the email my lawyer sent her with a lawyer of her own. She just isn't communicating which is unfortunate. I don't know her plans but I'm doing my own from here on out. It's likely we will be selling the house we bought together, so I'm packing non essential stuff in preparation.

    Hmm I didn't know that. Maybe I misunderstood but thought she said she had the credit with Korea to become a citizen. They own a home on the ocean in Jeju. Maybe she didn't become a citizen but own the home? Not sure what the laws are there for owning something while not a citizen. 
    Luckily I don't have to deal with it anymore as far as I'm concerned. That's why I mentioned this whole thing is a rabbit hole that I dont want to go down. Do t know how she could pursue her greencard if there is an interview as the notifications are mailed to the house. Even if there is no interview, it will be mailed to the house as well. I wonder if by that time I should contact immigration if she hasn't come back and setup to return the card? For now, I'm waiting for the divorce to play out. I'm totally done with being a roommate in a marriage.

    Basically wife left with her friends Sunday Sept 26th to have dinner with her them that was turning out to be an all night thing( she did this the night before as well with different friends and didn't come home until mid day Sunday the 26th) and I told her to come back home. She became defiant and hasn't come back home since. Her father and brother are also here staying with me since their arrival in June. She blocked me, her mother and father, and brother on wechat because they are part of the problem with being pressured on various things, such as trying to immigrate her brother by means of a lawyer to have him become a Christian to use the asylum clause and remain in the US. She brought her father here because he fled China due to fraud and cannot go back as he will face the court. 
     
    So she is escaping everyone due to all the pressures and had mentioned that she may do this. So I was always trying to make things easier on her and get her a psychologist to talk to as she asked for.
    I have my lawyer starting a divorce but she may default on that as she doesn't want to be found.
     
    She got a new passport from China in 2019 as her old one expired. So I do not have the info on that passport so I can look up the I-94 info to see if she left the country. The application for the 10 year greencard didn't require the passport so I need to know if there is a way to find out? I imagine I should call immigration to let them know about all this?? We gave her a week to possibly clear her mind and come back but it appears she is wanting to stay away. 
     
    I know there will be gaps in information I just entered here so I will answer questions as best as I can. Just not sure what my next step should be. First file a police report to report her missing? 
    With all the information I have gathered since summer, I'm possibly thinking this could turn out to be fraud. It's a long story and a rabbit hole so this is what I have for now that is relevant.

    ImagineMe reacted to carmel34 in Possible abandonment of marriage   
    She can continue the ROC process with a divorce waiver on her own.  She can and maybe already has filed a change of address notice with USCIS so her interview notice, or notice of the interview waiver, and eventually her 10-year green card, will be sent to her new address.  So sorry you are going through this.  Filing for a divorce with no knowledge of where she is can be difficult, but not impossible.  Your divorce attorney will know the procedure which varies depending on your state divorce laws.  I hope you can move past all of this drama and heal.  Good luck to you in the future!

    Hi there! I am so sorry that you are in this situation. I think that you’ve been given very solid advice! 
    I cannot stress how important it is that you DO NOT check on her i94 form. These are federal documents, and you can get in trouble for doing that without her consent. I know you have a good heart in doing it, but as @African Zealot has said, the best thing to do is to get a burner phone and text her something like “I don’t want to keep you in our marriage if you don’t want to, but if you don’t respond within (insert time frame) with (say for example her birthday, something that she’ll know) I’ll file a police report for your safety. I have also started divorce proceedings” and then you move on with your life. Work on you. She doesn’t need you to remove conditions. You don’t have to contact immigration; just receive whatever mail she gets (don’t open it!) and that’s it. Move on.
    Also, I would tell your lawyer about the father- brother situation (them living with you ). I’m all about helping people, but it seems that there might be some fraud involved, so I would make sure they leave my house by a certain deadline. Just my two cents. 
  15. Thanks

    She would have, in theory, authorized or checked her own travel record for that.   It does ask you to attest to being the passport holder when you check the record.

    Yeah only their own story of what's going on. But I'm not worried about what her and immigration will have to deal with if she were to stay. I started the divorce process and trying to get things in line to fight to keep the house.
    Yet I had to do that in order to get the AoS done?

    The I-864 is already in effect because your wife was issued the 2-year GC. The I-864 obligation only ends when the immigrant:
    Becomes a U.S. citizen; Has worked, or can receive credit for, 40 quarters of coverage under the Social Security Act; No longer has lawful permanent resident status and has departed the United States; Is subject to removal, but applies for and obtains, in remove proceedings, a new grant of adjustment of status, based on a new affidavit of support, if one is required; or Dies Also: https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-864.pdf Page 7

    No.  You are obligated by the I-864 you submitted until one of the following:
    1.  Immigrant becomes a citizen
    2.  Immigrant has gained 40 quarters of SS work credit
    3.  Immigrant has lost status a a legal resident and departed the US
    4.  Immigrant dies
     
    It might in your best interest for her to become a citizen as soon as possible.

    I would try booking the flight online and bypassing speaking with someone all together. When booking a ticket she has to provide her Greencard info so I would imagine that she’d be able to purchase the ticket.

    ImagineMe reacted to Quarknase in Chinese wife wants to return from China   
    Agree with this. But I recommend booking directly through the airline (online), third party might seem cheaper at first but beware if there’s a cancellation then they’ll give you the runaround...
    Airlines (afaik) are responsible to put you on the next available flight to your destination if your original flight was cancelled. I’m sure those rules vary by country, but I was told (once in India, once in Europe) that they have to put you on the next available flight, regardless of airline (if you’re at the airport that is).
    @ImagineMe Let us know how it turns out!

    Legal permanent residents were never banned from Entering the US regardless Of their marital status. I’m sorry the airlines have been so incompetent.
