Can I get my 10 years greencard or I will be deported?
I came to the US 4 years ago with F1 visa. The next year I met my husband and we got married. I got my 2 year greencard. He was travelling a lot but 89 months ago he left the country without telling me. After that I found FBI is looking for him due to some insurance fraud or something that they didn’t tell me. I was scared and my husband didn’t explain what was going on. So I allied for divorce and it is going to be finalized next month. Can I apply to get my 10 year green card while I was not married for 2 years? If not will I be deported? What will happen to me?

I see nothing prohibiting you from getting your ten (10) year green card even though you you are getting a dissolution from your marriage even though you have not been married for two (2) years. I suggest that you may want to consult with an immigration law attorney about the situation that you are writing about and what your legal options are with respect to seeking a green card to stay in this country.
