Legal Question in Immigration Law in New Jersey
I got married to a US Citizen last year. But we found to be not compatible to each other and planning to end the marriage. Do we have a chance to go for an annulment instead of a divorce on a mutual agreement? To be frank, we haven't really consummated the marriage(major reason). But have been hiding things from both families about it. And also I have a conditonal greencard that would last until 2011. I have enrolled in an university. If we get annulment or divorce, what are the chances of me to survive in US as a legal resident? Can I get an F1 status? I know that annulment and divorce can make the GC void. Please advice. Thanks.

If your marriage ends in annulment your conditional resident status will be lost. If your marriage ends in divorce - you might have a chance to apply to remove conditions from residency after divorce and based on a good faith marriage.
I understand that this was an "arranged marriage" - arranged by both families. I suggest, you consult a good immigration attorney and start planning your strategy for the future.
