Q: I married a guy for love. He married me for Greencard. He never moved in with me. What do I do?
I don't want to get in trouble with the law. I tried to get him to move in but he just kept making excuses. I finally get gave up,due to I was taking care of my Grandfather until he passed. I got married in 2012. I went to the first interview at immigration with him. I don't remember much because I had been up for 24 hours with my Grandfather. I think it was for a 2 year greencard,which now should be expired. I do not know what to do or where to go. Do I report him and if so will I get in trouble for waiting so long?
A: You need to file for divorce
A: This appears to be a sham marriage. I would suggest you contact and discuss the implications with an immigration attorney regarding how this may impact your situation. Regardless you should initiate a petition for dissolution of marriage or given the circumstances perhaps a petition for annulment of marriage if it was never consummated.
