How many years after marriage can you get a divorce?

If you get married to a girl from a different country and take her to the United States, after how many years can you divorce her?How many years after marriage can you get a divorce?
Your question is vague so it is hard to say. You can get a divorce at anytime of course.


Now if you are talking about marrying someone for citizenship, which is illegal, it depends on their status before the marriage.





For example The processing time for a marriage based Green Card varies depending on the Service Center where your petition has been filed. The process may take up to 12-18 months. After which you have a temporary marriage based green card you.





The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) grants Conditional Permanent Residency for two years, after which you need to file for Removal of Conditions to get a permanent Green Card. The USCIS does a second check on the marriage after two years because marriage is a relatively easy route to get permanent residency in the U.S.





So in this case after getting your green card the person would need to stay married for two years to receive a permanent green card.





However none of this excludes you from being scrutinized by law enforcement and potentially being arrested if the marriage is for anything bu loveHow many years after marriage can you get a divorce?
The minute you land in the US you can get a divorce. But of course you will probably be up for charges after that, unless you can prove that she was trying to rip you off and you found out en-route to the US. The marriage can be voided in that case.





If you are marrying the girl so she can become a US citizen, then you are stuck with her. ALL divorces from overseas marriages will now be automatically scrutinized by the Department of Homeland Security to make sure that nothing illegal was done. If so, she will be forced from the US, and you will be charged with a felony.





In general, she will get a green card sometime with the first 2 years, and be eligible to become a US citizen within 5 years. If you divorce her after 15 years and 3 or 4 children, they will probably ignore you. If you divorce her the day after she gets her green card or US citizenship, then be prepared for a world of hurt and 10 years in a Federal prison.





In other words, it is no longer a game used to ';make citizenship'; through marriage. Marriage is now forever.
LOL, ask Britney Spears.





You can get divorced at any time. But did she become a citizen as a result of your marriage? Then you are entering a gray area. Consult a lawyer. And if you are marrying someone just as a favor to get them over here, don't do it. You really don't need that kind of hassle. it will end up costing you money and aggravation.
HELLO??? you can divorce her as fast as you can get to a lawyer...move it pal! oh and it doesn't matter what country she is from.,...for you. She may get deported back to her home. Did you marry her to get her into the US???
