Filing for divorce without a response from him party just take a little bit longer to ensure that you have done your due diligence regarding notification and his failure to respond. But as mentioned previously, you don't require his acceptance to get divorced.

If you are the one who filed, no need to call the court, you case supersedes his on this matter. He can contest all he wants. They both of you have to be in it to make the marriage work. Personally, I would try to get a split of assets or money if possible. It will give him something to think about if there are marital assets. If nothing else, it will force him to negotiate. His assets for him to stop contesting. FYI do not make this a negotiation for him to let you keep your greencard because that is not even up for debate. If you get some money from him, at least you can use it to party on his dime.

Written, vision, driving ... If you have a foreign DL, most states not all will waiver the "practice" period. Most states have reciprocate agreements with each other. Some have with Canada and other countries but not all countries.

No need for the immigration lawyer. File whatever the next step you need to file with immigration and deal with whatever USCIS response is. A lawyer can only guess what they have in their files about you that was said by your spouse. That said USCIS ignores most of those letters and comments by angry exes and soon to be exes. Correspond with him via paper or electronic means only. That way you have proof of all his stupidity. Besides your greencard, what is he trying to get from you? If nothing else, you might not even need a lawyer. Respond to every legal document sent. Else a default judgement might be entered in his favor. I think you are given more time to respond since you are out of the country. FYI he might try to pull a fast one by sending it to your last address, saying he did not know you are currently in the UK. If you think he has filed, check with the courts in the city where you or he lives. I think those are his choices of where to file. You will have to eventually come back to deal with the case. Even though he filed the case, you also have a say if this ends divorce or annulment.

Status changed to issue late today. Waiting for notification to pick up passport now.

Same status as mine as of Friday.

When you go to edit your timeline, you need to select the correct country in 2 places "Beneficiary's Country" and "US Embassy" to fix this.

Best guess is an error. The create dates for both images above are different.

As has already been mentioned several time, K-1 is more expensive than CR1. If you switch to the CR1, you will come closer to the cost of going through with K-1. This early in the process, I think you should calculate the effort involved in terms of cost, time, processes and proceed as you think fit. If a "stable union' is used to get benefits as a married couple, then I think you are walking too close to the line for comfort. Search the forum, some people had engagement parties and were considered too married for K1. Stable union sounds even more than engage especially with what you plan to use it for. My 2 cents .... no stable union
