Hello,
I got married in June 2009. Am from Pakistan, here on spouse visa for 2 years resident & she's a citizen of UK & here since 1970.
She's having an affair with her old boyfriend & I want to divorce her.
If the divorce takes place then what happens to my visa ?
Do I have to go back ?
Thanks in advance.
Shahid

Please confirm that you are a permanent resident or conditional resident. If you are, then the divorce should not affect your immigration status, other than the time for you to qualify for natz.

Good luck.

As long as you married in good faith, and have evidence of cohabitation and co-mingling of funds, you can divorce and file the I-751 removal of conditions immediately afterwards. The basis for the CR removal will be "good faith marriage ended in divorce.

Consult with a immigration attorney, should not be a difficult case to document. Sorry to hear you have marital problems, hope this helps. Good luck.
