If your husband was your sponsor, as far as immigration responsibilities, he has none with you as his obligation under the affidavit of support is with the government, not with you. Your spouse may well have other, non-immigration related obligations to you, which you should consult and discuss with a family law attorney.

Your husband is obligated to reimburse the government if you become a public charge. Your husband is not obligated under United Stares immigration law to provide you with a monthly income. That being said, you may be entitled to spousal support. You need to contact a family law attorney to discuss the matter further.

The affidavit of support filed by your husband on your behalf with the U.S. government does not obligate him to support you but to reimburse the U.S. government if you become a public charge. If you are seeking support from your husband, you should contact a family law attorney.
