I-751 Petition to Remove Conditions Lawyer in Dallas
Conditional Permanent Residents (CPRs) include those who received a green card based on their marriage to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident during the first two years of their marriage. They also include any children who received conditional permanent resident status.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requires a CPR to file an I-751 petition to request the conditions on the permanent residence be removed. In general, a CPR must file the petition to remove the conditions within the 90-day period before the conditional residence expires. Children who are CPRs may be included in their parents’ I-751 petitions.
If a CPR remains married to the US Citizen or lawful permanent residence spouse, they should file the petition jointly along with evidence of their continued good faith marriage.
What If My Marriage Has Ended?
A CPR should file an I-751 petition to have the conditions removed on permanent residence even if the marriage has ended in divorce or through the death of the spouse. USCIS may waive the requirement that the I-751 be filed jointly with the CPR’s spouse where:
- Termination of your CPR status and removal from the U.S. will result in extreme hardship,
- Your good faith marriage ended in divorce or through annulment,
- Your or your child suffered extreme cruelty or domestic abuse during the marriage, or
- Your spouse or stepparent passed away.
A CPR who does not file the I-751 jointly with the petitioning spouse still must show the marriage was in good faith.
Consequences of Failing to File I-751
The consequences of failing to file an I-751 petition where required may be severe. Individuals who fail to file an I-751 petition may be placed in removal proceedings and risk the loss of the permanent resident status in the United States.
