Married a U.S. citizen to get a green card (with conditions)? Here’s how to remove them:
File on Time (Crucial!)
-
You have 90 days before your conditional green card expires to file Form I-751 with USCIS. Missing this window can lead to removal proceedings.
Gather Evidence of Your Bona Fide Marriage
-
Proof like joint finances, leases, tax returns, and friend/family affidavits strengthen your case.
Complete and File Form I-751
-
Include all required documents and the filing fee (waiver possible if struggling financially).
Biometrics Appointment
-
Attend a USCIS center for fingerprints, photo, and signature verification.
Interview (Possible)
-
Be prepared to answer questions about your marriage under oath (with your spouse).
USCIS Decision
-
They’ll review everything and notify you of their decision.
-
If approved, you’ll receive a new, 10-year green card without conditions.
