McBean Immigration Law, a legal firm specializing in immigration matters, recently addressed this issue in a short video. The firm's lawyer, in a recent video, emphasizes that the timing of a divorce relative to other immigration milestones, such as obtaining a green card, is a key factor in USCIS's assessment.

She highlighted cases where a divorce shortly after receiving a green card could raise concerns. The lawyer also stressed the critical importance of transparency in immigration applications. "Such a bad idea," she stated regarding the omission of children from applications. The video underscores the need for complete and accurate information when applying for immigration benefits. The video serves as a valuable resource for immigrants navigating the complexities of the US immigration system, highlighting the importance of seeking legal counsel for personalized guidance.
