My divorce with my wife is pending. She is in India. As I am in US, I withdrew 5K from her account as I know her password and have all cheques and credit/debit cards.
Now she is going to complain to authorities. Will there be any serious problem may arise for me/ my visa/ green card?
The money which I withdrew from her account was given by me only. My fault is that I withdrew money and put that into my account and got her account blocked.
Please guide what could happen ?

Hopefully you'll be charged with stealing/fraud.

You withdrew money that you were not entitled to withdraw. The money is not yours and you didn't have permission to take it.
Technically you have committed theft and should be arrested and charged with the offense. If you are convicted you may well have your applications for a visa rejected on the basis of your criminal record.
If you need to ask whether it is a crime or not not only are you a criminal, but you also have no conscience. You should be deported immediately.

If your name was on her account, no you can not get in trouble. If your name was not on the account, yes, you are in a lot of trouble. That simple act of removing and blocking her account can fall under several laws such as theft (a felony because it is over 5 grand), swindle, bank fraud (which is a serious felony), and in some instances they could file a charge of identity theft.
Any felony conviction will loose you your visa.

If you are still married and she had not blocked you yet, it should be legal. If you are in a community property state I know it was legal. Tell her to shut up and take her divorce and go.

Well it all depends on if your name is on her account. If you name was not on her account, then it very well could be a crime.

Whats yours is yours before you met, however you needs to handle your affairs legally.
You could be in trouble, was you name on her account?
Go to legal aid they are free.....tell them what happened....they will be able to give you good advice.
Good Luck to you..........

It's her money, no matter who gave it to her. You'll likely be ordered to pay it back and if you don't your wages can be garnished.

Sounds like you need to talk to your attorney.
