Can you file for divorce while processing an I-751?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
So sorry to hear about the problems with your husband and your plan to seek a divorce. In general, one must file a joint Petition to Remove Condition (I-751), based upon continuing to reside together as a married couple, or one must file a Petition to Remove Condition with a request for a waiver of the usual requirement that the I-751 be filed jointly, based upon the existence of a final divorce decree. It would be wise to consult with an immigration attorney about the Removal of Condition (and to a domestic relations attorney about your rights relating to termination of your marriage).

Do I have to start at the begining of the immigration process?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney David H Stoller (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Stoller & Moreno, P.A.
My suggestion would be that you speak with a US immigration attorney before taking any action. Sounds like you were a resident alien (a/k/a lawful permanent resident) for an extended period of time and may have "abandoned" that status as a result of your absence from the US for as long as you were away. On the other hand, you may not have abandoned that status if the only purpose for your extended time away was to attend school and then return to the US. The easiest way out of this situation is for you to not be considered to have abandoned status and for the US consulate to provide you with evidence that you maintain status as a resident so that you can return to the US. If that does not happen, the you may likely need to have mom or dad file a visa petition on your behalf and start all over again. Having some effective advocacy here may assist greatly with the hoops that you may need to jump through in order to find a workable solution to your situation and I would suggest that the best place to start is with a good immigration attorney. Good luck.
