I got married overseas and got my greencard when I entered the USA 7 years ago, got divorce 6 months later. A few months ago, I applied N-400 and had two interviews with USCIS. The last interview, they asked me a lot of questions about my marriage, I got a feeling they suspect my intention when I got my green card because the marriage only lasted for 6 month after I arrived in USA.

During my last interview 3 weeks ago, they asked me to provide all the "evidence" to prove the marrige and my wife and me "lived together". I don't have those records (banking statements, etc)because those are 7-8 years ago.

I went to my ex-wife's house and she moved a few years ago. What happend if I can't provide the evidence to USCIS for my N-400 application? They are going to take my green card back? Or they are going to deny my N-400 only?

Please help.
 
It depends if USCIS decides to further investigate the issue after denying your application..there's no way in telling.

How long were you married before you got the green card? When you got the green card shortly after entering the US, was it a 2-year conditional card, or a 10-year card? How long before your divorce were the divorce papers filed? Were they filed before you got the GC?

The bank probably can obtain the old statements if you go there and ask them. Other records may not be so easy though.

They have a higher burden of proof if they want to revoke your green card. It is easy for them to deny your N-400 if you don't provide the evidence they want, but revoking your GC would involve taking you to court and proving to the judge that you committed fraud.

I agree....with Jackolantern comments. However, this is a fake marriage....then your GC could be at a serious risk.

I also do not understand timeline, how did you obtain permanent GC if you only stay married in US for only 6 month. Typically, I think conditional GC on marriage case is issued for 2 years. Did you disclose your divorce to USCIS when you applied for a permament GC ?
