Archive for the 'I-751 Removal of Conditional Status' Category

Fiance(e) Immigration Journey

So these are the steps or the filings that a fiance(e) will normally do when he or she decides to go for the K1 or fiance(e) petition, from being a “fiance(e)” to finally becoming a citizen.

  1. I- 129F Application for the fiance(e) to come to the USA, this is the first step done by the petitioner/US citizen. If it gets approved, fiance(e) will have interview at the US embassy with her requirements
  2. I- 485 Application for Adjustment of Status,  this is done by the “fiance(e)/applicant” after the wedding to the petitioner/US Citizen
  3. I- 751 Application for Lifting of Conditional Status, this is filed by the “fiance(e)/applicant” 90 days  before his/her two year conditional permanent resident card  expires
  4. N-400 Application for Citizenship and Naturalization of the now Permanent Resident “Fiance(e)” after three years of residency

Of course every time you file you will have to pay the filing fee which is not cheap at all.

Anyway, I have completed the first three so I am now going to the path to citizenship. Hurray for me !

Will Post More Info

I know I haven’t posted anything here for a long time, but I do have a lot of infos to put here like my sample letter during my adjustment of status, and during the removal of my conditional status and also the requirements and papers that I have submitted.  I still have to find those papers though. I have put them in a box that I have yet to find.

Please bear with me. :)

Filing for the Lifting of Conditional Status

I filed for the lifting of my conditional status last week and my, that wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I am still quite busy so I will just post what form and documents we filed, how much I paid for the filing fee.

A fiance or fiancee visa doesn’t guarantee a permanent resident status once they get here. I entered on a fiancee visa so even though I was already granted a greencard, or a permanent resident card, in reality, it really is not a permanent resident card since we are kinda like on a probation period. Before our two-year greencard expires, we need to file for the lifting or for the removal of its conditional status. So it’s filing time again, paying time again ..
