CASE: I-751
APPLICANT: Sri Lankan
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client contacted our office in early March this year regarding his I-751 application.
He is from Sri Lanka and married a U.S. citizen in October 2013. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in July of 2014. His conditional residency terminated in July 2016.
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 again on March 16, 2016 and our office prepared an I-751 application for our client with other supplemental exhibits.
On April 4, 2016, our office filed an I-751 application to the USCIS with multiple affidavits from his friends and family members, joint tax records, joint bank statements, utility bills, insurance policies, and photos of our client and his wife to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.
Once the application was filed, the fingerprint notice was issued two weeks later. There was no RFE issuance or interview request for our client’s I-751 application. As a result, on December 14, 2016, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card which removed the conditions.
