Complication at Citizenship Interview
Hi,
Wanted to share my experience and see if anyone had a similar situation who could give me some advice.
I just recently had my interview for citizenship. I filed based on 3 years of marriage.
My spouse and I have been separated for the past year but still stayed married. I talked to him before I filed if he was okay with us staying married or did he want to get a divorce. He wanted to stay married and told me to go ahead and file.
Long story short, at my interview, of course I told the officer my spouse and I were still together and didn't mention about the separation. The interview went well and I got approved. He scheduled me my ceremony for the coming week and told me to wait in the lobby for my name to be called to get the appointment letter. I was waiting for about 10 minutes, I saw the officer who interviewed me came out and called me back in. He then asked me to come back into his office. He stated that he just received a letter from my spouse stating that he and I don't live together and have been separated. I was in complete shock. He then changed my case to "Decision cannot be made" and said I will receive in the mail another appointment letter for both my husband and me to come in for another interview. I asked the officer what would happen if he doesn't want to come in. The officer said if my husband doesn't come in my case would be denied and I wouldn't be able to apply for the next 5 years.
At this point, I don't care about the case being denied anymore. Do you think they would dig deeper and possibly take back my green card and deport me? The officer only mentioned 5 year suspension but I'm very worried.
I talked to my lawyer and he said he knows some cases who also lied and got denied but he doesn't think they will go further than just denying the application but I'm still very worried.
Has anyone have a similar experience? I would really appreciate some input.
I made a mistake and I regret it but I'm worried about being deported. As of right now my status online is still shown as "Approved". :(
