:confused:

I think my husband married me for my money. What would happen if I divorce before the procedures are over. The finger printing part is already done ... Can I annulle the marriage.

Problems is I am already here in the states with all my belongings. The man I married for love has changed like Dr. Jekill and Mr Hyde.

I don't know what to do anymore sigh!

If you divorce before your GC is approved, you will lose your right to become a permanent resident based on marriage. Your marriage is the only thing that grants you the right to adjust your status to permanent resident in the U.S., and if it's over, your eligibility is over. I'm afraid, there's no way for you to keep your status in case of a divorce.

Sounds to me like you married your husband for a greencard.
This was totally unnecessary. I like this forum, because people are generally polite here, and reserve their judgements. It is not for you or anyone else to judge why the OP got married.
 
No I didn't marry for my green card. If I wanted in USA this bad I would have invested and created a company I got the money. I was divorced for 18 years and doing very well before this. I met him trough my travels here in Texas and he seemed such a good person. I trusted him 300 % and didn't even do any prenup aggreement that is how stupid I was if it was an arrangement marriage I wouldn't have been this stupid.

I am trapped now and very dissapointed :( .

You’re right. I should have been a bit more discreet.

I guess what prompted my reply was my difficulty understanding on a logical basis, what immigration benefit the OP felt entitled to pursue. Relative petitions exist for the benefit of the petitioner. Absent her marriage, the premise of the petition dissolves.
