Can you sue your spouse after divorce?
In general, yes you can sue. Whether you will be successful or the judge will toss your case out of court is a different question altogether. You may also be required to pay for your ex’s lawyer for filing a frivolous lawsuit. A lawyer can help decide whether you have a legitimate case or not.
How long do you have to stay married to keep citizenship?
There’s yet another benefit to being married to a U.S. citizen: Three years from the date you become a permanent resident, you can apply for U.S. citizenship, so long as you remain married to and living with the citizen. Most green card holders have to wait five years before applying for U.S. citizenship.
Can I keep my green card if I get divorced?
If you obtained your green card through marriage to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, a divorce (or annulment) may pose a problem. The good news is that there is nothing in the law saying that, once you are divorced or your marriage is annulled, your efforts to get a green card are automatically over.
What if my spouse and I live apart from each other green card?
It is possible to get a green card when you are living apart and having marital difficulties, so long as you have not gone so far as to get a legal separation (which is possible in some, but not all U.S. states) or actually gotten divorced.
Can I stop my husband from getting his citizenship?

Can a spouse visa be Cancelled?
