What he's telling you is that the affidavit of support is still enforceable, even though you've divorced. This was spelled out in detail in the I-864 affidavit of support you signed. You wouldn't have been shocked by this if you'd read the contract.
What you want to do is not a simple correction of the FS-240. You're asking that the FS-240 be cancelled and the child's US citizenship be revoked. Department of State does not do this lightly. There is a complicated process involving several divisions within DoS. The process is described in 7 FAM 1441.6.

You need to understand that the US Embassy in London is NOT going to issue a B-2 to a single, unemployed recent college grad with few ties to UK. She never should have applied for B-2 but should've come on VWP. Pretty much only retired people stand a chance of getting a B-2.
She needs to disclose her rejected visa and see what ESTA says - if it says denied, give it a couple of months and have her try ESTA again.
Saying you're both against marriage will NOT get her a way to be with you - glad to see you're coming around and realizing marriage may well be the only way to be together.

You have been detained for shoplifting, charged with petty theft and paid the fine. You did not do that because you were accused mistakenly, but because you were guilty as charged. You are a thief.
Yet you did not disclose this, wrongfully assuming the Feds are too stupid to find out within a comprehensive FBI background test.
Tell you what: if I had been the I.O. I would have seen this as a deliberate misrepresentation and declared you a persona non grata for the rest of your natural life. If I were you, I would thank my god for sparing me deportation and keep my mouth shut for another 3 years. If I was the judge getting your complaint on my table, I would order you deported before going to the bathroom.
You apparently have no idea how lucky you got.

What in the world?
I've seen you say some ridiculous things, but this might top the list.

Weirdest.comment.ever.

Regardless of the circumstances its a violation of the I9 rules to specify any particular document, Period. I don't know about the "evil" part, but they are violating a Federal Statute by specifying a document. You decide if you break the law are you a criminal?
They can ask for an updated I9, but the employee decides which documents off the I9 list a, b, or C they provide. Suggested, demanded, hinted, whatever... they are not supposed to do it. That is what I am saying and the law backs me up.
If you read the case that was cited earlier in this thread the Government fined them 290K for doing just this, asking immigrants, because they were immigrants for specific documents... and that is discriminating based on national origin sorry you cannot see that. There doesn't have to be a threat of termination its simply treating someone different because they are an immigrant.
Its clearly laid out that you hand them the form and they pick the documents... very simple stuff. Reading is fundamental and the warning to the employer is in a box at the top of the instructions.
HR people at minimum should read the X*&^% I9 form, since the administration is running around fining people and doing so many audits.
In my own circumstances, Did i ask my spouse write HR a letter? NO. did he need to no, I just sent a link to HR after the third time they suggested what documents I should send, and a link to the AILA website with the instructions on I9 audits. case closed.
Had the situation been turned around and they asked for my spouses GC after proferring the DL and SS card, I would have encouraged my spouse to speak up and helped writing a response to HR since English is not the spouses first language.
personally I think our spouses face enough hurdles in the process of getting established here, they don't have to put up with extra scrutiny because of ignorant HR people.

The employer CAN NOT ask specifically for her green card. That is up to your wife what document she wants to provide as long as it complies with options in I-9 form. I NEVER showed my GC, always just SSN card and DL and that was enough.
Read the form I-9 - instructions are in the front and stand your ground - HR sometimes needs to be told what is legal and what not.

The sad thing here is that they didn't even look into what it would take to get her here legally until after she'd already left the country on a VWP Overstay and was detained trying to enter again.
Seriously, the system didn't fail them, they failed by depending on assumptions.

Previous post is correct, you CANNOT work without authorization from USCIS. (EAD or GC)

Easy fix:
Employer: I'd like to see your green card please, ma'am
Employee: If you're verifying my legal status to work on the I-9, here's the documents you require as per Lists A, B and C. At this time, I've chosen not to include my green card but I believe you'll find the rest are in legal compliance.
See? Painless. Nothing wrong with the employer ASKING. If they are offered other legal alternatives and begin DEMANDING the green card or threatening to terminate her employment for failure to show it, then it's time to politely remind them that they have a legal obligation to stick to the lawful requirement and avoid the penalties associated with failure to do so.
Why on earth would you want to make working life more difficult for your spouse than it needs to be? The squeaky wheel may get more oil, but it's also likely to be changed sooner.

1. Possibly, ask at city hall
2. You can get married anywhere in the USA
Government offices will be closed for as long as the people electing them continue to vote for the people in charge. If the people of SF made it an issue and UNelected the people who seem to want long holidays at taxpayer expense...it would change.

If she turns 18 before mom naturalizes, 5 years residency rule applies.

We've had several cases on here where the parent was asked for proof of health insurance at the interview, and at least one denial that I remember. I've no time to search for them now, but I am sure you can find them.

I recommend printing off a copy of I-751 and the Instructions and read it a couple of times, then carry out what they ask for, Removal of Conditions is about Both of you proving that you have a stable and commited marriage, that you both live at the same address and co-mingle finances. USCIS are not interested in employment.
Just follow the instructions and you will be fine.

You never answered if you have a marriage certificate or not.
You cannot file any spousal things without one.
Your not filing for a visa if you are in the USA and staying in the USA. Go home to Canada. If you file for a visa you have to have the interview in Canada the medical in Canada and deal with all of that.

To me its not worth the risk of losing everything. If they feel you are not using the green card as its intended purpose they can remove it from you.
Its only 3 years to get citizenship if you stay married. I would just stay and get your citizenship and then go to Canada so you already have dual and she can work on hers. Then you can go visit the US without hassle. US immigration is way harder than Canadian, to me not worth losing the time and money already put in when you could move back to Canada with US citizenship in a couple of years if you so desired.

You don't have a status that will satisfy most DMV's. You will likely have to wait until you have green card in hand.

Cancel the payment method. If the Lawyer used a check they can put a stop payment on it.

Not gonna happen. But at least you got your AOS paid for.

Wow... this is a very imflammatory thread.
I think the original OP suggested that having a child in this process is ridiculous.
Can we agree that "most people" who are in this process intend to live in the same country?
Can we also agree that "some people" in this process will never get a VISA?
Can we agree that for "some children" who will have to live a life without daddy in the country or mommy in the country ... that child might suffer in many ways, not only economically, but socially and psychologically?
If we can agree that it would not be in the best interest of the childto live without both parents due to some bureacratic mess, then perhaps careful timing of childbirth for some couples is not such a bad idea.
We can probably all agree that some people like to swim upstream... and that will never change because there are some people who are more admant about getting what they want when they want it regardless of consequences or potential outcomes.

As far as I am aware person is not allowed to work on B1, it is a business visa to attend business meetings, training etc.
Person you are trying to bring on B1 cannot officially work.
