Will my green card be revoked if I file for divorce?
Asked on Apr 02nd, 2013 on Divorce - Texas
More details to this question:
Will my green card be revoked if I file for divorce just 2 months after receiving my green card? I and my spouse are of Indian nationality and we are here since September 2011. We got married in India in May 2009. My spouse is working and I am a housewife with a 20 month old kid. My spouse’s company filed our green card and we got our green card on 24th January 2013. We are having issues in our marriage from a very long time and I want a divorce now. Will my green card be revoked if I file for divorce since it has not been 6 months that we have got our green card?

You should consult a lawyer who is experienced in immigration law. I think the revocation question would only arise if there were a claim that the marriage was a fraud in some way. But check with an expert.

It will not automatically be revoked however you need an attorney.

That is a question for an immigration attorney - you should consult with an attorney and ask that he/she review the paperwork related to your green card.
