    Your spouse entered the U.S. on a K-3 visa? She subsequently sought adjustment of status?

    As you have given no indication that this is not a bona fide marriage, if your spouse intends to remain in the U.S. there's a good chance that she will be able to do so. You sponsored your spouse, so you are on the hook to support her if she cannot find employment. Those are issues you will want to discuss with your divorce lawyer.

    You can file for divorce in the county in which you live. If you married in Vietnam and it may become an issue in the future, you will need to check with a lawyer in Vietnam to see how that nation would treat a U.S. divorce judgment and whether there is any need to register the judgment or take other legal action in Vietnam.

    You can seek custody, as can she. As it appears that she is the primary caregiver, that would normally give her an advantage when seeking custody.

    Given the facts I would strongly suggest that you retain a divorce lawyer who is familiar with immigration law issues.
