    Question Divorce While on Spouse Visa

    Hello, I am looking for some information for a friend who married a US Citizen in Missouri and is currently under a spouse visa. If she gets divorced before she obtains her Green Card, what does that mean for her immigration status (she also has a child who is a US Citizen). Also, what is the effect of the divorce if she does already have her Green Card?

    Thanks

    Default Re: Divorce While on Spouse Visa

    The effect of a divorce is to end a marriage.

    If somebody is divorced when they don't have permanent residency or when they're a conditional permanent resident, it is at best more difficult ot gain permanent residency. What that means in a specific case depends upon its facts.
