I 've got my permanent GC for 3 years I adquired it though my marriage . I have been married for 4and 1/2 years. We are having many marital problems. He has been physical and verbally abusive. I have been married because I love him, so never have courage to call the police or report any abuse. I have been advised by friends to seek help for my safetly, and I am on my way to start to see a psychologist. My problems does not end here, since I married him I was able to revalidate my carrier credential from my country and in few months I will obtain a licence to practice my profesion and probably make 3-4 times more money than him. I suspect that because of this, when I applyed for removal of the conditional GC they required more information to prove that my marriage was in bonna fe. I did send about 100 pictures and more letters from people that know us. I was thinking to apply for Citinzenship soon, but on the light of my marital problems now my priority is to find emotional and physical safetly. I am also worried of what would happen to me if I do not go to the police to document the abuse and then when I divorce INS will start again with questions about my intentions. I am planning to move away from him so I will be safe. We do not have children toghether but we have my daughter from previous marriage with us, she sees him as a father and calls him Daddy. He has refused to see a profesional to help him with anger management neither wants to go to counceling. I do not have too much proves of his beheivor except for one visit to my PCP where I mention the abuse and I did show her the bruises. SHe documented everything and advised to leave him, but I still was having hope in our marriage. THis happened several months ago. My daughter is now 11 yo and she witness and listening to all the verbal abuse from him. Lately he started again to get upset for anything, and also bolling my daughter. I am scare of him now. I did not want to call the police because of what could happen to him. One of his favorite subjects is to acuse me of married him only for the GC. He will threat to report to inmigration his believes. He also will scream and complain about my carreer, telling me that all what I had acomplished has been because of his help. I always work and provide for the house, and now I bring to the house more money than him. He has been w/o job for 4 months and I has been the only income in the house.
How far can he go to harm my GC status? If I apply now for citinzepship, will I have to bring him to a new interview or prove that we are still living toghether? What do I need to do before filling divorce to keep my inmigration status safe? WHat will be your advise to avoid problems with inmigration. I was excited with the possibility of becoming a citizenship of this wonderful country. I has been living here for several years and I am happy to stay and continue working with my profession. I would like to have your advise asap please. I am still living with my husband.
