Default Withdrawing petition

Hope someone here can help me with this question.

A couple years ago I brought my fiancee here from the Philippines on a
k-1 VISA. We married and she received a conditional 2 year green card.
It expired a couple months back, but we filed a few days short of the
expiration date, so we barely made it. A couple weeks ago I received a
letter stating she had been extended and we should hear from them
within the next 6 months for an interview (we have already had one
shortly after she arrived here 2 get the 2 year card). So I am now
waiting on that, the 10 year adjustment of status interview. But we
have had lots of problems.

After she first arrived here, she left me for 2 months. She then came
back. After we had been together for about a year she left for another
couple of months. She then came back. About 6 months later, she left
again for about a month! Every time she gets made, she just runs off to
her sisters. Now for the past 3 months she has been living away from
me, in her own apartment. She has people staying there with her, men in
and out all the time. She also has another female now living with her,
to help pay rent I suppose. When I ask her who the men are, she will
always say a freind from work. Last week I went to her place in the
late evening a naked man came to the door! And he jumped on ME for
being there and bothering him!

I have taken all of this I can stand. I do not think it is fair for me
to have to go to any interview with her when the time does arrive. I
feel as if she only came here to be in the USA & closer to her sister.
She does work and makes maybe $15,000 a year. Can I withdraw my
affidavit of support and anything else? I even told her I was thinking
of divorce and she told me to do whatever I needed to do. What can I
do? As far as I am concerned she can go back home, or I should not be
the one having to keep her up at 125%. Some one please help! What can I
do?

Thanks in advance.

You should divarce her ass as soon as possible, write and inform
immigration about her, even better go to the immigration office and
tell immigration about it all, you do not want to support her for the
next 10 years.

bells should have been ringing the first time she left for two months...

Why the hell did you sign her paperwork to get a conditional 2 year green card ???

Your bed mate......

Once you've married you cannot withdraw the AOS. Not only that, but depending on which state the poster resides in, there could be alimony to pay even if he had married an American citizen.

Why don't people understand that marriage is a Really Effing Big Deal and that the AOS is but a small part of it?

Why don't men realise that marrying a woman from a poverty-stricken country might mean that the woman is getting to the US the only way she knows how?

You can't withdraw anything at this point. She has her green card. She can apply to remove the conditions on her own, even if you divorce. You are still liable for the I-864 even if you divorce, until one of the following happens:
1. She works 40 quarters of qualifying employment (usually about 10 years of full time employment;
2. She becomes a USC;
3. She leaves the USA permanently; or
4. She dies.

About the best you can do right now, if you want to get out of a bad situation, is divorce her, let her deal with her own immigration issues, and move on with your life. But you are still on the hook as her financial sponsor, no way around that one.

Best Wishes,
Rene
