Divorce before i-751 is filed, will she be sent home?
Hi guys, my brother in law (American) married a foreigner, they've been married about two years, she cheated on him and wants to divorce (she left him) but of course he's her sponsor, so if they divorce will he remain her sponsor even though she is working? Does he have the power to strip her green card and send her home? She does have her 2 year conditional green card and the date has not yet arrived for her to file for her conditions to be removed. Thanks!

Not possible. Once this happens, women run straight up to filing VAWA (Violence against women Act.). They claim bartered women syndrome and they are granted temporary legal status and might be given a 10 years green card if she’s got a good lawyer like me. 😕. Sadly there’s nothing you or your brother in-law can do after y’all gave her 2 years conditional GC. that’s all she needs to leverage on and stay here forever.

Soooo he does have the power to send her back home because of the divorce or will she automatically deported because she cheated?
If it's a yes then sponsorship is out of the question then

Wooooowwwww LaShae that's messed up!

Yea Val. Aint nothing you can do. she leverage a smart move on your brother in-law. Watch next time before y’all make marriage moves. Too many scammer out there for GC. You would have gotten a way out of this if she doesn’t have a 2 years GC yet. But it is what it is. Your family is her GC guardian angel. 😉

Lol petty! But what about sponsorship? Will he still be considered her sponsor or all bills on her now? Cuz that would really be messed up!

By law, I-864 your brother in-law filed is valid for 2 years so your brother in-law is responsible for your monetary need until the expiration of the 2 years conditional green card. So it’s messed up as you said.

there's nothing what she can do...even she got a lawyer..he got the power to send her back...she ruined her opportunity...

Val don’t say I didn’t tell you. Prepare your brother in-law mind for VAWA. She will DEFINITELY claim protected status under VAWA. Simple.

Ok well thankfully I think the 2 years may be up pretty soon! Thank you guys for your help!

she can absolutely stay. I had a friend who got divorced before filing I-751 and now she has a 10 year green card. USCIS says that they understand that people can fall out of love, basically what they had to do was to proof it was bonafide and reason for divorce.
Val PalJun 3, 2021
Yea @Liz O but he felt like she may have possibly used him to get here
Lola KJun 3, 2021
oh no.. did she enter with a K-1 visa?
Val PalJun 3, 2021
The 90 day visa...not sure if thats K-1
Val PalJun 3, 2021
Yes I googled it...it is the K-1 visa

when times comes for renewal she has to file a waiver based on divorce. there is no rule in immigration for divorce, every day people get divorce. the only rule exists if marriage was done in a good faith , if she will be able to prove that she will get 10 yrs card. your bro in law should not be worried about anything , he need to get divorce and live his life..

nope. he's not gonna be able to send her back home.
I know what I'm saying.
she will file a waiver by her self abd sleight get the 10 years green card.
but because she cheated 🙄he's not gonna be able to send her back home.
Val PalJun 4, 2021
Update: like i said she moved out and she's continuing to live her life and now she's asking the family for money, wanting them to co-sign on a new apartment and she wrecked one of her husband's vehicles and he had to pay for it to get towed, hundred of dollars and you guys are telling me there's NOTHING he can do? And Mohammed clearly her cheating before their 3 year anniversary multiple times speaks volumes, she clearly had 1 objective and it surely wasn't to love through it all (considering he treated her right). This is ridiculous and I hate she is getting away with it, when people decide to help each other out and marry for status is one thing but to play games with someone who truly loves is another level of deceit...sounds like he needs a good lawyer

people surprise me . I’m not on anyone’s side but to each relationship there are two sides of the story . Why do US citizens alway resort to threatening spouses about green card withdrawals? the person sacrificed to move to a foreign country too. Someone else commented about “battered women syndrome “ abuse comes in different forms and are more rampant than people think .citizens blackmail and threaten spouses about deportation everyday in order to control their lives. there should probably be more laws protecting foreigners than there are right now .

And this situation its not the case, he told me himself he doesn't care if she stays or leave he simply no longer wants to be held responsible for her financial choices...our family (the one I married into just like she did) we're open with one another and she no longer speaks to me because she doesn't like to hear when she wrong...anyway we're well off the point at hand I pray the best for them both but I'm completely against false charges being raised against people and dishonesty on a while, integrity seems to be a lost quality

what Liz said. she has the 2 year card, she can divorce and file for a waiver. so long as she has evidence of the marriage - bank statements, pictures, joint documents etc…she can easily get her 10 year. it’s sad but your brother in law will no longer be responsible once divorced. He has nothing to worry about

i said that because o know someone had the same situation exactly pretty much.
and he tried to send her back home and wasn't able to.
she's illegal but she didn't go to where she from yet 😕
Val PalJul 24, 2021
It sucks but I will definitely update because he has recordings of her admitting what she did etc, let God have His way!
