H4 Alimony and spousal support in Texas

[zeebourne786]

Hi Forum,

I have been married for 2 years but due to some unavoidable circumstances I am going through a divorce. I am filing for divorce from India as we got married there. I am on H1B and my wife is on H4 visa. Here are my major concerns.

1) Currently she is in India, can she fly to US and claim Alimony/college tuition/attorney fees even if I am in India?

2) I don't want to get in the mess of filing divorce in USA as it is very expensive and I cannot afford my own lawyer forget about her attorney fees.

3) what is the procedure to notify USCIS that I have divorced her and no longer responsible for her.

4) The reason I am delaying to go back to India is the freaking section 498a and domestic voilence case threats from my inlaws.

I just want to get it fixed and move back to my country. It's disgusting to see how the girl's parent can give you nightmares with these laws.

I have gone through lot of forums to research this but I have found conflicting view about this. So Murthy forum is the final door to knock. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

1. She cannot enter US on H4 when you are in India.

 

 

Contact an immigration attorney.
