so, right now he has his conditional card which is valid for 2 years, or he has the LPR card, which is valid for ten years. Give more details.
If he has the conditional you can still withdraw the petition, and call USCIS and thell them that you are in divorce proceedings.
If he is a LPR , I don't know, talk to a lawyer.
In any case, you have to proof that he married you just for his papers, did he have girlfriends during the marriage? was he married in his own country?
did he abuse you?
get a lawyer.

I had a friend who married an english woman and divorce her 4 years latter. He was cheating on her and used up her savings. He got a divorce and tried to leverage her citizenship to take the rest of her savings. He threaten to report her in as marrying him for her green card.
You have to ask yourself if you truely believe he married you for the green card or you are saying this because you are mad. I do not know you or your circumstance . THink hard before you report him to the INS. I am not saying not to report him in, but to report him in for the right reasons. Conscious has a funny way of come back at you 10 years latter. I do wish that if he did marry you for false pretenses, that he is kicked out though. I told my Friend's wife to move back to England and pick up whats left of her life. SHe decided to take the revenge root and she went to hell for over a year fighting for the pettiest thing. Divorce is not who wins, No one wins.
Its who lose the least. I hope your ex gets what he deserves and that you can move on.
PS. If you still think of reporting him in, I think an Anullment is better. ASk your lawyer about that. An anullment means the marriage never happened.

I agree with Rocio. You would have to have proof that the marriage wasn't made in good faith at the time the marriage took place.
If your spouse has a green card with conditions (i.e. two year GC), he can file a waiver to remove conditions on his own., but he must show that the marriage was entered into in good faith at the time the marriage took place.

In case of K-1 visas granted to spouses of US citizens, if one spouse leaves his other spouse within a period of five years from the date of marriage without a reasonable and justifiable cause then the visa/green card/permit to stay in USA is cancelled viva-voce and without prejudice to the affected party the right to contest it in a court of law - Warner, Immigration Solicitor, Twenty Dollars.

If you're in the States and he wants a divorce, this is a dumb move on his part, if he wants to stay in this country. You two have to stay married for at least two years before any divorce occurs, otherwise his greencard will be revoked and he will be deported.

Let me tell you
If he divorce you, let him do it. Don't stop him but before he do it with out him knowing report that he used you. Go to INS office and go to get an advise about this issue.
I am sure they will believe you because you can proof that he used you.
He will be questioned about the divorce yes.
Why he divorced you so he is probably will get in trouble.
But you need to report him, that he used you just for the green card... And he is possible to loose his green card. but you have to act as quick as you can.
But if you divorce him then the INS won't question him at all on anything and it will work against you.
So you let him divorce you and do it peacefull because if you don't then it will be against you and if he want to become an US citizen if you divoced him it will be easy for him to get it.

It certainly sounds as though he abused your trust in order to obtain his green card, and didn't have any intention of carrying out the wedding vows. Using a fraudulent wedding to obtain a green card is illegal, and you could certainly report him to the authorities. Good luck.
