CASE: I-751
APPLICANT: Jordanian
LOCATION: Ohio
Our client contacted our office in December of 2013 regarding her I-751 application.
She is from Jordan and married a U.S. citizen in November 2010. Through her marriage, she obtained a 2-year conditional green card in December of 2011. Her conditional residency terminated in March 2014.
To comply with immigration requirements, our client and her husband had to file an I-751 Joint Petition to Remove Conditions. She retained our office again on December 20, 2013 and our office prepared an I-751 application for our client with a lot of exhibits.
On January 2, 2014, our office filed an I-751 application to the USCIS with a birth certificate of their son, joint bank statements, joint tax records and photos of our client and her husband to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.
We then got a receipt notice and the fingerprint notice was issued two weeks later. However, USCIS issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) on May 6, 2014. The USCIS requested our client to submit more documentary evidence to prove the bona fide nature of her marriage with her husband. In response to the RFE, our office prepared the response and gathered more joint documentary evidence to demonstrate the bona fide nature of our client’s marriage with her husband during last two years. We filed the RFE response on May 30, 2014 to USCIS.
Eventually, on July 1, 2014, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received her 10-year green card.
