Immigration issues are becoming common in marriage dissolution actions. In the 2017 case of Choudary v Gazzarapu , 65 Conn.L. Rptr 4, 131, The court ruled that a divorce should not be delayed because one spouse needs to remain married for a fixed amount of time to secure immigration status. When one spouse needs residency status, a divorce can cause serious immigration problems, but it can not be put off indefinitely.
