No, your green card status will not be revoked or otherwise taken away if you get divorced from your husband. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or how I can be of further assistance to you in this matter.

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

If you have already been granted the greencard, and now decide to divorce, there will not be an issue with your US immigration status.

You get to keep your status even after you divorce your husband and there's nothing he or his employer can do about it.
