What is the name of your state? Mi
I received my 2yr conditional card few months ago, me and my wife (US citizen) are falling apart because of my needy annoying mother in-law. It appears that my wife is a robot controlled by her mother, who made her have an abortion and even quitting her job. That did not bother me much, but now my mother in-law is trying to convince me not to go to grad school because she doesn_t want her daughter to be away from her. I disagreed with her request and she got so upset and even started mentioning things about divorce. So I just realized that I am married to my mother in law and my wife can't even take a stand on my side. If I will go Grad school there are chances that we might divorce, if so, then, what are the chances of filling a "waiver for a joint petition in removing conditions to be approved?"
On the other hand if I go to grad school and stay married, we will be having different addresses, will that be a problem when we jointly file the I-175 Petition whid dues in two years later?

Just for more info, our marriage is real, including name changing, we filled taxes together, a big wedding celebration, we are living together (lease) we own a car, bank account and all bills etc.
 


If you do get a divorce you will be able to get your condition removed so long as you can show that your marriage was real in the first place...

Hi !
If you divorce, you could file anytime after your divorce is final to remove the conditions from your 2 year green card. You need to file for a waiver and prove that your marriage was real. If you are married after 2 years, you have to show that your marriage is real and still good. I don't see why not you couldn't go to school , since you'll still have the same official address , taxes , bills , insurence togheter. You just had to go to study to a different place. I assume tjhat you are going to keep in touch with your wife and you'll be able to show them corespondence, phone bills, e-mails, and ofcourse the fact that you spend vacations togheter. Another good proving act would be the hospital or clinic bill.
Good luck to you and succes in school.
