How do you withdraw an application for US citienship you placed for a former spouse?

My ex wife has deserted me. She was an immigrant from Venezuela. I had applied for her citizenship, and paid for the application, and received an approval in the mail, which gave her a number which began with an ';A'; if i recall. We never went any further with it, never went to an inteview, and eventually divorced. Can I withdraw her application? Out of curiosity, what will legally become of her?How do you withdraw an application for US citienship you placed for a former spouse?
You can notify the INS that you are divorced. You'd need to be married a minimum of two years for the application to be valid. You can't withdraw the app, only she can do that, but the INS can withdraw it if they think it was marriage fraud.How do you withdraw an application for US citienship you placed for a former spouse?
Number one, you didn't apply for citizenship for your wife, you petitioned for her, so she could qualify for an application of permanent residency. You must attend an interview, so it hasn't been approved if you didn't. Since you are not together, are divorced, she cannot benefit from that petition anymore. When an application for permanent residency is denied, the person is put in deportation proceedings. It doesn't mean necessarily that she'll be deported, but it's possible.





To clarify another person's answer, you do not have to be married for two years to become a permanent resident. If you are granted residency based upon a marriage that is less than two years in duration, you are given conditional residency. After two years with conditional residency, you have to apply to have the condition removed. If you are divorced at that point, you can still become a permanent resident, you just have to show that it was a valid marriage from the beginning.
