It's debatable.

A lot of K-1 visas had been approved without interview. Most K-1 to AOS don't have an incredible amount of proof since they're only married for max 3 months, minimum a couple of days.

I wish I could go back and see what we had for AOS, but I can tell you it was next to nothing since we had been married for a month at the time of AOSing. ESPECIALLY compared to what we have after two years of marriage.


One thing I am curious about..


You say you've been married for roughly 18 months, but she just got her conditional green card a month ago. Is the process that backed up now or did something happen to where ya'll delayed filing for AOS?

Seems like a really large time gap from K-1 to AOS.

We initially applied at the 5 month mark but our package was lost. We applied again and it took 1 year to be approved.

Hm, your wife may not have necessarily committed fraud by marrying you. It sounds like she realized moving and living in the US wasn't what it was cracked up to be, so she bailed. Sorry I know that's not really that much more reassuring. But truly fraudulent spouses manifest other behaviors and it doesn't seem like your wife has displayed them. If you divorce her, then the rest of her immigration process (if she pursues it) is 100% her responsibility. By divorcing her before removal of conditions, you remove yourself from the equation. It'd be messier if you tried to divorce her during removal of conditions. Have you tried or considered marriage counseling? Do you know where she is?

Oh trust me it is fraud. I'm not posting all the details in this thread since I don't know who's reading but I have posted here under another name before and everyone pretty much agreed that it was fraud. I recommended counseling before and she refused. I know where she is because she came back yesterday. Once she left and I told her I was filing for divorce, she showed back up and now wants to work on it. Smh. I don't know what I'm going to do now.

What do you mean? Are you saying that the divorce is a benefit to her?

I'll try to be as brief as possible. I met my wife 3 years back and we've been married roughly 18 months. Things were great before she came (K1 Visa) but after she got here, the signs started to show. Withdrawn, no sex, changing plans etc....... We have no joint property, kids, or accounts. Anyway, she got her conditional green card roughly a month ago and decided to leave. I don't want to deal with the drama so I'm filing for divorce. Even though she's gone, she has stated that she doesn't want me to file divorce. The only reason I could think as to why she would say that is because she wants to remain married long enough to get her permanent green card. My question is if there is anything I need to look out for while going through the divorce process? I've read up on the VAWA thread and that seems like a route she might take as a last resort. Of course, I've never physically or emotionally abused her and I don't want any lies told on me. Furthermore, I could lose my job if she accused me of such things since I work for the government. I just want to start the divorce, move past it and move on with my life. Any advice would be appreciated.
