Hi,

I came to USA on 2006 December on H1B visa status. I am married and I have issues with my wife. I am staying here alone and she has never been to USA. My and her families have been discussing the divorce issues and they can’t solve the issue. So, my wife’s parents filed a police case on me and my parents last week. These are the cases they filed on us
420 - 498 a - 506 – 323. So, my parents applied for bail in India. I have a lot of questions on my mind. I am married in Hindu culture.

1) Can I apply for my divorce from USA? I don’t want to go to India because they filed police cases on me. If yes, what is the process? Please, let me know the details.
2) I have a H1B visa renewal this April. Will my police cases in India cause me any trouble in INS for visa renewal status?
3) I am working for an American client and they are willing to take me as a permanent employee. Is my family issue and police case in India going to affect my job here if they transferred my visa status to new American company?

Please let me know if I need to take some precautions regarding this issue. I hope some one will take some time and help me with these issues.

I really appreciate all your help on this!

Thanks Surya

What's the nature of the charge? Was it against you or your parents or both?

They filed the police cases against me and my parents also (both of us).
