When a family (husband, wife and children ) all on green card and if they go for divorce, will that affect citizenship requirements ?

Will my wife break her Continuous Residence or Physical Presence requirements?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
The difficulty in your situation is that your wife's second trip and the contemplated third trip being so close to the second one may raise questions as to whether your wife is meeting the requirement of continuous presence in the US, but the other major concern if you are thinking of leaving her behind when you take another trip of some duration is that she is also required to be in constant residence with you under the three-year rule. Given your situation, your wife should go with you if you have to leave, but try to amass as much evidence as she can of US ties such as US property – real and personal, tax returns, US bank accounts, state license or identity card, utility bills, insurance, membership in associations or societies, etc. Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

Should the company be big to sponsor my GC? If yes, can they do the visa for me and what kind of visa would that be?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
No, the sponsor does not need to be a large company. As to the visa possibilities - there are quite a few, and discussing the requirements of each of them on this site would take too much time. Considering that your prospective sponsor does not have much experience with work visas and employment-based immigration, both you and the company need an immigration attorney. The process is rather complicated, and trying to wing it on your own or with an "immigration consultant" usually results in a lost opportunity and in lost thousands of dollars paid as filing fees to the government. The initial consultation should not cost you more than $150-$200; and most attorneys will let you pay their fee over a period of time, in amounts you can afford.
