CASE: I-751
APPLICANT: Costa Rican
LOCATION: Houston, TX
Our client contacted our office in January of 2014 regarding his I-751 application.
He is from Costa Rica and married a U.S. citizen in May 2011. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in March of 2012. His conditional residency was expired in March 2014.
To comply with immigration requirements, our client and his wife had to file an I-751 Joint Petition to Remove Conditions. He retained our office on January 14, 2014 and our office prepared an I-751 application for our client with bona fide marriage evidence.
On January 21, 2014, our office filed an I-751 application to the USCIS with multiple affidavits from his friends and family members, joint bank statements, joint tax records, utility bills, joint lease, and photos of our client and his wife to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.
There was no RFE issuance or interview request for our client’s I-751 application. As a result, on July 21, 2014, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card.
