I married someone 2 years and 7 months ago. When we got married we worked right away on getting him a lawyer to get his green card. Three months after we married he got his provisional green card. A year into our marriage he became very distant and we began to have problems. It is now 2yrs and 7 months and he has his permanent residency. He now has told me that he is gay and knew about it 1 year and half ago, but did not say anything to me because he couldn't risk going back to Russia. He has dragged me down in his deception and I have endured 1½ of emotional abuse and not having a real marriage. He told me that his lawyer advised him that if I wanted to divorce before the permanent green card was in effect he could have filed a spousal abuse report against me. Does this sort of thing happen where the spouse who is sponsoring the green card has no rights? I live in California.
