CASE: I-751
APPLICANT: Spanish
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client contacted our office in early December 2012 regarding his I-751 application.
He is from Spain and he married a U.S. citizen in June 2010. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in April of 2011. His conditional residency terminated in April 2013.
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 December 18, 2012 and our office prepared the I-751 application for our client with documents we requested from them.
On January 28, 2013, our office filed an I-751 application to the USCIS with multiple affidavits from his friends and family members, joint bank statements, utility bills, insurance policies, and photos of our client and his wife to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.
After 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 July 22, 2013, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card.
