Good luck to you and your baby. God bless.

Hello Everyone!!!

The mediation turned out to be one of the most difficult days in my life. I left drained after 8 hours of negociations.

I obtained sole legla and physical custody of my baby and my ex-spouse got some visitations rights (he said he would come twice a year to visit but that he was not going to visit this year until summer)He signed a notarized letter for baby and I to leave the US.

He believes he will cut off my credit cards after we leave...

I married a winner...

Love you all!!!

i should clarify that your legal representation must be seperate from his. his lawyer cannot represent both of you in this matter.

I keep receiveing messages from you all and thank you so much for making me feel less isolated

The news of the day are that exspouse lost his job today. This may change the deal for the mediation tomorrow but I don't know yet. On the phone he said he intended to be very reasonable tomorrow at the mediation. Hopefully he will...

Hi,

I got married to a US citizen early 2008 after receiving a K1visa.

We have a baby born -preemie- 5months ago.

My husband has left the household 2 months ago stating he was going to a hotel.

He told me over the phone that he was filing for divorce citing inrreconciliable differences. I am alone in our flat in the US with my little baby boy & feeling acutely distraught. I have no family in the US. I do not work as my husband was providing for us. I cannot drive & feel extremely alone & isolated & helpless just caring for baby.

What can I do to go back home with baby? I am getting worn out here alone with baby. He wrote me an email to drive us to the airport the day after he left. I know he wants joint legal custody and not pay spousal support for me when I go back. He has been so inhuman I do not have any breastmilk for my baby and the harsh weather conditions where we live are starting to affect baby and me.

Can you please help? Who can help us? I just want to go home with my baby.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I got a lot of support coming our way: THANK YOU!!!

We are in Minnesota. I am going to a mediation tomorrow to meet exspouse and his attorney and try to find an agreement.

If a anyone knows anything about mediations please help: tell me what you know about it and if anyone has advice please I'm listening.

One precise question: do I have to sign there at the end of the session or is it possible for me to ask a little time (a day) to review the agreement?

I also wonder if it's okay for me to ask for an interpreter because even if I am fluent in English there arte legal terms that I do not get immediately.

Thank you all

Too, you must realize, your husband is on the hook as far as financial support as far as the USCIS is concerned. The Affidavit of Support that he signed, means just that, and divorce does not cancel the fact of that support.

WOW I think this situation is starting to get at me: I had tears reading the supportive replies, thanks for helping even with words.

(And to answer the question above, yes, I have a temporar green card since August 2008)
