If he is already an immigrant, there is no obligation to tell USCIS that you are getting divorced but you can write to them if you wish. Does he have a 2 year or 10 year green card?

You better talk to a lawyer since you may have to file for a waiver of your conditional residence if you are still a conditional resident. Do not cut corners and try to deal it yourself . A lawyer can walk you through the process to save your green card.

You do not need to. Just divorce him.
