ZOZO,

You will definitely have to send in the Divorce Decree as you technically cannot file for removal of conditions on your own until the divorce is final. You can only file earlier than 90 days before your second anniversary of your Green Card if your divorce is finalized - not just that you have filed for divorce. They are processing your application but when they look at it closely they will see that you don't have a divorce decree included and you will probably receive an RFE (Request for Evidence) for the divorce decree. If you are lucky you might not receive the RFE until next year and you will have time to get the divorce finalized and submit it, but I think you will get the RFE earlier than that. If you cannot provide it they will probably deny the petition or else return it and tell you that you are not yet eligible to file. You may wish to withdraw the application for now and re-submit it next year after you get the divorce decree. Your green card is still good for another year so you won't have to worry about being out of status.

You may wish to talk with an immigration lawyer about your case. I hope someone else on this forum will have some good advice for you as well. Good luck.

hi again...

i sent I-751 after i call 1800 and call immigration lawyer and both of them said that i can applay now with the Divorce petitione so i did and now my Divorce is final so i will send it to them but do you think i need to send more evidence?

i appreciate your time

thanks

sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you said your divorce would be final in May, 2009. If your divorce is final now, yes you do need to provide them with a copy of your final divorce papers. You may want to wait until they send you the request for them because that will make sure they get matched up with the rest of your file. If you send them in on their own they may not make it to your file. From the list of evidence you gave they should be able to determine you married in good faith. If they want more, they will also tell you that.

Good luck.

Was the I-751 that was submitted in March 2008 a joint petition?

If you received your Green Card in May 2007, how could you apply for removal of conditions in March 2008? Don't you have to wait till 90 days before a specific date in May 2009?
