We are thrilled to announce the approval of our client's I-751 Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence based on her continued marriage to her U.S. Citizen spouse. This approval means that our client will now receive a ten-year green card, granting her the stability and security of permanent resident status. Additionally, she now has the option to apply for U.S. citizenship.
Understanding the Removal of Conditions Process
For those who receive a conditional green card through a marriage of less than two years, the initial green card is only valid for two years. To transition to a regular ten-year green card, it's necessary to file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence. This process involves demonstrating that the marriage is genuine and ongoing.
Key Steps in the Removal of Conditions Process:
Filing Form I-751: This form must be submitted within the 90-day period before the conditional green card expires.
Evidence Submission: Along with the form, substantial evidence proving the authenticity of the marriage must be provided. This includes joint financial records, proof of cohabitation, and affidavits from friends and family.
Biometrics Appointment: The applicant will be required to attend a biometrics appointment for fingerprinting.
USCIS Review: USCIS reviews the submitted documentation and may request an interview to further verify the information.
Approval: Upon approval, the conditions are removed, and a new ten-year green card is issued.
Our client navigated this process successfully, and we are proud to have assisted her every step of the way.
