Re: i485 application & H4 spouse visa
(1) The divorce is not valid;
(2) you may try visiting USA on H4 Visa. However, at the port of entry, they may question you about validity of marriage. You may state that you wish to contest the divorce filed by your husband and that you want to claim spousal support from a US court.
(3) If they do not allow you entry, you may seek cancellation of H1B visa of your husband on the ground of fraud and cheating.
(4) You may also consider registering a criminal case against your husband in India and bring a copy of the FIR / Look Out Notice / Arrest Warrant alongwith you for appropriate action against you husband through authorities in USA.
