MyNameIsEarl

Thanks guys. I didn’t have an attorney for my temporary gc interview and I filed it by
myself. I filed the joint filing without an attorney too. 
 
My recent infopass appointment made me worried, the officer was not nice at all and my ex said she wrote letters to uscis against me. She also filed DV case on me which is dismissed, she also tried to pull lots of things during and right before separation like going to multiple DV shelters and complaining on me, complaining to her therapist that am a psycho blah blah and made therapist call me, text family and friends that am hurting her and even texting me all of a sudden that I married her for gc and ruined her life blah blah
 
I don’t think she can prove anything as she is the one who cheated on me, attached those proofs in waiver, after calling cops multiple times on me without any proof they finally filed a report on her and cps kicked her and my step daughter out of state to her grandma because of my ex’s drugs issues. I admitted her in multiple rehabs and attached bills in the waiver, but she recently wrote an email to my counselor that am bad blah blah and she should stop seeing me. Considering all this, am not sure how far she went to kick me out of states. 
 
Days before our separation, we were on a cruise in Caribbean and she was high and called security and told them that I married her for gc, trying to push her into the ocean and kidnapped my step daughter. They took few hours to figure out my step is with sitter, my wife is the one planned the trip and she is high. She pulled lots of stuff like this and again am sure she can’t prove anything but I just wanted to be on the safe side if VO surprise me with odd questions/behavior. 
 
 

Ok, I see why you would need an attorney. I tagged somebody that had a similar situation to see if they could be of any help.

If not it were me, I would hire a competent attorney to be with me at the interview. 

Why do you feel you need an attorney to begin with?

The presence of an attorney (and which specific attorney) has no impact on a decision made in your case.  It is decided upon based on your totality of circumstances, and that's it.

Any I-751 can be changed to a divorce waiver even at the time of the interview.  I'm not sure why you even need an attorney.  Just explain that the divorce was after initial filing.

see....what you FAIL to see...which is so clear, is that a person has rights....its not a simple thing where 'if it doesn't work, send it back"........yeah maybe in your case, but sad for you, however people have rights, and by the way your talking, you aren't that far behind this guy whos threatening his wife to get her thrown out.

Umm because she wants to , it is HER choice!!,NOT her husbands OR your's
.and THIS made me spit my coffee, LOL

Well, then you should know that USCIS is only concerned with the intent of the alien upon entering the marriage. If there are issues after marriage and the adjustment of status approval the alien is not bound to remain married in order to preserve residency status.

Sheraz, I feel sorry for your spouse You sound like a slave owner on plantation! You are saying: "She has got a benefit through me and even if I am an ###... she has to stick around or go back" (something tells me that even if you are a USC, you were raised in a culture with a far cries for democracy and western values).
I dont know your family situation, but I am sure that most USCs marry "normal" foreigners with some life established in home countries (career, social status which is often higher than USC can offer here). USC dont marry some trash from a street in some 3rd word country. Usually these aliens are from middle or upper-middle class in those countries (which maybe financially less than upper-middle class here but not a rule). Plus, apart from any financial aspects of life, in most countries the stereotype about Americans is as of good-hearted straight-forward casual hard-working family-oriented people (as opposed to always drunk Russian, mucho Latino, harem-holder Arab, always-on-a-budget Swiss, penny-counting French, time-obsessed German, shoes-with-holes-but-bank-account-with-000000 Indian, etc).
The alien has uprooted herself and came here for a better life. Yes. Because a good husband is a better life. I am sure there is some people who marry for GC only (but I think it is a self-inflicted torture lasted a few years to pretend, to lie, to have sex, to cook, ... for a person you dont have any any any feelings. Somebody really has to be so wronged in a native country). To go back home after years here, it is the same as to start from the beginning. I dont think it is fare since if marriage fails; it is usually due to both parties (not the alien only). Plus, divorce rate here is close to 70% but it is about 30% for marriages between USC and foreigner. So much for a marriage fraud, ah.
But I am sure that some USC marry with the same as Sheraz mindset-they dont bring a spouse to this county (the spouse who has the same rights and benefits as otherwise American spouse) but they bring a spouse-slave (powerless submissive attachment to a USC spouse). I think this 30% divorce rate is made of these relationships in bulk.
"Angry spouse" letter to CIS (without any factual evidence of the fraud) is just a testimony to immaturity and selfishness of the author. There are civilized ways to end a marriage. Mismatched expectations are pain for both. Exercising power by writing a letter to CIS (just because he can-without otherwise any factual basis) is suatable way for actually a very helpless and weak personality. Only a weak person has a need to prove that he is a strong one. A weak person cannot move on without doing some collateral damage.

what little understanding you have......closed minded......we aren't in Pakistan you know? where the woman has to walk behin the man like a dog on a leash.

Yes, right away.
 
Yes you can, you need to send a letter to the USCIS office handling your case requesting that your i751 case be converted to an i751 waiver case based on a devorce. Use the mailing address on your receipt notice to send the letter to.
 
Send a copy of your receipt notice and a copy devorice decree in the letter.
 
You can also convert your i751 at your interview by giving your interviewing officer a letter requesting to convert your i751 case, but best to do convert it right away.

Yesterday in Irving. Well, the receptionist was friendly and the 1st screener was okay too. it took me somewhere between 1.5 to 2 hours. 

Lol.  That's a long wait. Hopefully they don't change my status to 'ready to be scheduled for an interview' as well. I can't wait another 3 years.
 
Actually, I am in the middle of divorce. Filed this August and it might take another 2-3 months. So, that I will have my final papers by the time I go for my next i-551 stamping.
