Could a 2 years temporary Green card be extended while waiting for a divorce from ur US spouse ? ...?
Answer:
What I know is that she can still file the petition for removing her conditional status even though she's divorced.
She can get the information about that by reading the instructions of I-751 form at the USCIS website:
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/m...
And the following is the brief information of what she needs to submit for the petition:
If your marriage was terminated other than by the death of your spouse, you must submit the following:
USCIS Form I-751 (Petition to Remove the Conditions on Residence)
Copy of USCIS Form I-551 (Permanent Resident Card)
Evidence that you entered in the marriage in good faith, and not to evade the immigration laws of the United States. Examples of such evidence includes, but is not limited to:
Leases showing that you and your spouse lived in the same place
Documents that prove that you and your spouse owned property together
Birth certificates of your children
Copy of your divorce or annulment decree
Evidence that you were not at fault in failing to file the petition on time, if applicable.

And I'm not really sure if she can wait to file the petition until her divorce is finalized. She needs to contact an immigration lawyer and ask what she needs to do.
The instructions of I-751 says that if people have some good reasons why they need to file the petition after their green card expires, the USCIS is not going to deny the petition. But I'm sure that the petition is highly recommended to be filed before the expiration date of the green card.
Are you and goldengal the same person?You seem to be asking the exact same questions.
No,it can't be extended,her marriage wasn't in good faith.Time for her to go back home.
Is she a green card wife?
Send her back to country of origin.
I can think of one case where it may be extended. That is in the case of spousal abuse where the abused spouse entered into the marriage in good faith.
Thanks for the points dude.
It possibly could be if they are self supporting and meet the guidelines.
If not - they have a snowball's chance in a very hot place.
if she is divorcing him and she got her greend card due to the marriage she could now be denies and sent back. law states 7 yrs of marriage or fraud.
If she has a conditional greencard (2years) she can file for removal of conditions on her own, she doesnt need her husband to do it but she still has to prove that the marriage was entered in good faith. Check here for the procedure
