    Default Immigrant Wife Left With Our Child

    Hello everyone,

    Here's my situation, I'm an American citizen who married a lady from the Philippines. We married in the Philippines in May06. She received her conditional permanent resident visa in April07. May07 I flew her here to the United States. Shortly after she arrived she gave birth to our baby.

    Just recently, she left me and she took our baby without telling me to go live with her relatives in another state.

    Before she left we had an argument after which she told my family that she was scared and that she didn't feel safe living with me. Our argument (more specifically, name calling). She also contacted a domestic violence shelter and told them that I was abusing her. They have not contacted me.

    She has manipulated my family and the shelter so that she could leave without fear of being deported. I was not abusive towards her, if anything she was the one who was abusive towards me.

    Over the phone she tells me that she left so that she could save the marriage. She told me that I need counseling. She has made it very clear that she will not be coming back. She said that once I finish my obligations here then I can move to where she is and then we can seek marriage counseling.

    I know that I've been fooled. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, please give me advice on how to proceed with this situation.

    Someone, anyone please help. I want to be a part of my child's life.

    Hi. I just found this buried in somebody else's thread. It's a shame you didn't post it as a new thread, as you would have received some timely responses.

    If you are still in need of help, please share a follow-up.

    If you have not yet done so, you need to consult a family lawyer about getting a child custody and visitation order in place, so you can see your child while this is being worked out.
