FAQ
No Direct Obligation to Report Divorce: You, as a US citizen, are not required to file anything with USCIS just to notify them about the divorce. Your wife would be responsible for informing USCIS of the divorce if it impacts her status, especially if she is on a conditional green card.
ICE accepts anonymous reports by phone and online. Call 1-866-347-2423, the ICE Homeland Security Investigations Tip Line, to report an immigration violation from the U.S. or Canada. If you are in another country, call 1-802-872-6199.
