"Right now I have a conditional immigration status and is pending a final review." "However, it now appears that my spouse and I are headed towards the divorce." "What will happen?" "Will I lose my legal status? Will I be deported?" "Is there anything I can do to save my immigration status?" To best answer that question let's take a rule at the general rule. General rule is that a foreign national can achieve legal immigration status here in the US through a marriage with what I call a US spouse. And when I say US spouse that means a US citizen or a person who is a US permanent resident. However, immigration laws only grant a conditional status when the marriage is less than two years. Now, why do the laws work this way? Well, one obvious reason is that the law wants to do what it can to avoid fraudulent marriages. Meaning, they're concerned about foreign nationals marrying US spouses in the hopes of achieving some kind of legal status, when they had no intention of remaining with that person. Now, in the effort to avoid that, immigration laws only grant conditional status for a certain period of time, in this case will be two years, and they grant an initial interview to see if you have at least the workings of a bona fide marriage. That is, a real marriage to them. If so, then they would give you a conditional legal status and that was pending a final review two years later, so that they have a history of two years to see if the marriage is really a real marriage or a bona fide marriage, as opposed to a "fake" or fraudulent marriage. Now, that means that the second interview is a little more aggressive, a little more strenuous, in a sense that, immigration officials then have a history of two years to review the circumstances of your marriage, to make sure that it's a real bona fide marriage. However, what happens if divorce occurs?
