Case of fraudulent marriage

My friend who is a US citizen got married about 2 years back to a girl from India and got her a conditional green card. The couple have recently filed for divorce and my friend found out that the intent of the marriage was for the green card. Does anyone know any good immigration lawyer, who can help my friend fight his case to stop his wife from getting a permanent green card? Let me know.
 
There is no need for that. she got a conditional green card. and it will be very difficult for her to get that condition removed. and get the PERM GC...

goodluck
 
even she has permanent card, just let the issue go. revenge will actually cause more hurt to both people. move the life on and forget her.
 
A letter to USCIS describing the details of the marriage and the fraud will make it extremely difficult for her to ever obtain a GC in the US under any circumstances.

Remember, this will have major and permanent effects on this woman's life. She will be left with no alternative but to either leave the US - PERMANENTLY, or fight this with every resource she has available. This will cost her tens of thousands of dollars in attorney fees and she likely will be tied up with this for several years. I'm involved with several similar cases and in one case we were left with no alternative but to bring a defamation action against the former USC spouse. That could end up costing your friend lots of money too.
 
I don't see how you can withdraw an application for adjustment of status (if you've filed it already) just because you have a "feeling" of motives! It's another matter if you file for divorce and on that legal ground your spouse can't get her status adjusted. Your spouse can easily slam a lawsuit against you if you choose to deny her an adjustment of status. You seem to have gotten blinded with a thought of too much power--maybe you feel you can grant or deny your spouse an I 485 adjustment based on your hunches. You at least gotta go the legal way pal. But on the whole, it's best to let go and not get into something that could be financially and emotionally destructive for all parties involved.
 
He can't withdraw the I-485 since he did not file it, she did. However, he can withdraw the I-130 and that will automatically kill the I-485 (assuming that the I-130 has not already been approved). His failure to attend the interview may be fatal to the case though.
 
what about she claims extreme cruelty and takes relief under VAWA. she gets her GC any ways. May be May be needs a good lawyer. BTW, are you a lawyer?
 
Friend needs help!

Hi People,

My friend needs help in her case where her husband has left her in India and married again in US.

He has been fooling her all this time saying different stories.She has two kids who stay with her in India.

She wants to know if she can proceed legally.Does she have any options.

She is in her late 20's and its difficult for her to get a visit visa and come to US.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks.

Try and get hiss social security or any personal information and write a letter to the local US Consulate, she can probably write a letter to the US Consulate in India. That would be the best approach to start with.
 
write a simple letter explaining the situation and attach copy of his passport, marriage certificate, kids' birth certificate, H-1 visa number, F1 visa number, green card number, ssn, his new wife's name, address, birthday, a copy of his second marriage certificate (could get it from his local court house by giving just name) and other identification info. send the letter to US consulate and to his local BCIS office.

again, two marriage cerficates (new and old) are extremely important. If you could not get second marriage certificate, get some evidence of his new marriage such as wedding invitation, announcement, friend's statement under oath, wedding photos, etc. If he is not legally married again, you do not have a case in my view.

he is violating US law by having two wifes. If BCIS knows it. He could no longer get any visa or Green card or citizenship and is deportable.

if you fight on the US court for divorce, you might end up half of his asset plus alimony.

case of marriage fraud

My friend , a citizen, was married to Indian, who preplanned to divorce her once he is settled. She realized the fraud after she filed i-751 because he abandoned and disappeared later. She brought this to attention of USCIS about 3 years ago. And filed for annulment in US courts. Since then i have come across several similar cases. Anybody in similar situation?
 
I Just May Be

Well, it has not happened to me as yet, but I am having lots of doubts about my own marriage. Not sure what I can do at this point. I can't prove anything and I do love my husband very much.

I pray for you that your husband should love you as much as you love him. If, if by any remote bad luck, your suspicion turns out to be true, please don't let him get away with it. Too many UScitizens are deceived this way and since nobody is perisistently trying to stop the permanent green card, more and more aliens are encouraged to take this path. Marriage is too precious for some people, not a game. For such people, life gets destroyed forever. As some people in the previous threads are advising 'to get on with your life and not to seek revenge', for some people like my friend who is devastated, it is not easy. Also it is not a matter of revenge. It is a matter of sending message that the frauds cannot get away with it, that they cannot build their american dream on the ruins of another's.
Thanks.
 
I certainly hope he is being truthful. If not then I do not plan to let him get away with it, no matter how much I love him. Can any one tell me, if u recieve your GC before the end of your 2 yr anniversary , do u recieve a CGC or a PGC?
