My question involves a marriage in the state of: Pakistan. I am a Pakistani national. Female. Got married to my husband who is Pakistani and us national. Around 7 years ago. Married life since the beginning wasn't exactly a smooth ride but lately it has become very painful. I am living in a very abusive atmosphere and have suffered domestic abuse at the hands of my husband and his sister. I have green card from last 4.5 years because of the marriage and going for the nationality interview in less than 3 weeks. My husband didn't let me work so I rely for financial aid from my own family. I have 3 kids all less than 10 years old and one of them is infant. Husband has beaten me and kids often. I am sick of our relationship and i am thinking of getting out. I think he has sensed it and has started to mentally torture me by continuesly creating frightful atmosphere at home.
I wanna know my rights interms of my green card and nationality and kids, when I go down the route of applying for divorce.
Our marriage happened in Pakistan according to Pakistani law and Islamic law. I do not know what is the situation here in terms of documentation because he never told me anything truthfully if i asked.
What should I do. Where I should begin. If i decide to ask for divorce. We live in the state of Ohio.
Any help would be much appreciated.
