Posting for sibling - divorce/child custody

Posting for my brother. Also posted in r/legaladvice but was told to post here also incase anyone had similar experiences.

My brother (28M) (US Citizen) married his wife (32F) (from Hungary) nearly 2 years ago. He sponsored her fiancée visa and she currently is a GC (conditional) holder. A few months after marrying, they got pregnant and now has a beautiful one and a half year old.

My brother works full time and she is a stay at home mom. During the pandemic he worked from home and is extremely involved in the daily care of their child. However, his wife is an emotionally and verbally abusive person and not only has she been this way towards him, she is extremely rude to my mother, my sister and my fiancé. She hates being a stay at home mom. In her home country, she claims she worked and was able to live independently. When my brother offered to hire a nanny or send their child to a daycare a few times a week so she can have some “me time” or work, she gets offended and she explodes, and flat out refuses. She blames it on the fact that she hates America. The saddest part of this is that my family and I have done so much to be as supportive as we can, but she will typically bar us from seeing/contacting my brother and the child, reject support and continues with her “America sucks, everyone is against me” attitude.

My brother is going to try to take her to marriage counseling because for the sake of his child, he wants this all to work. However, he believes that should counseling not work, he will ask for a separation and eventually a divorce. His greatest fear is that she will take their child back to her home country and he will never see her again.

What should his course of action be? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
