  • Applying for marriage based green card while renewing H1B visa

    Hello,

    I am on an H1B visa right now. My first 3 year term of the visa will be complete in Oct 2016 and my employer will submit the necessary paperwork for a renewal.
    Additionally, I got married on Oct 2015 and my spouse is a US citizen who wants to apply for my green card. However, we are having issues in our marriage since it was arranged and I feel that a divorce might be inevitable in the next year if things do not get better.

    1. Should I still apply for the green card since I know that only a conditional one is given for the first 2 years after marriage? If Yes, what would happen to my green card if I divorced my husband?

    2. Or should I stick with the H1B renewal which will be for another 3 years?

    I would really appreciate any help given on this issue.

    Thanks so much.

    1. If you divorce your spouse, you will not be able to get the permanent green card, unless there is a clear evidence of physical violence etc.

    2. Yes
