[APC 0]

Hi,

Can anyone answer my question, please?

My history:

J1 visa student since 06/2003

12/2004 - got married

01/2005 - applied for AOS

12/2005 - AOS interview (Manchester, NH - everything was OK only background check not completed. They promised to submit my name again. After couple of my phone calls I received a letter stating that they were still working on it.

now 09/2006 - it has been almost 2 years (and 90 days) since i applied for Adjustment of Status and I never received my conditional 2year Green Card becouse of the Background Check and I do not know what to do.

Should I apply for I-751 to remove conditons now?

Thanks

ACP

ACP,

Remove conditions from what?

You should find out what happened to your adjustment of status. If AOS is still pending, then you have not yet received lawful permanent resident status.

The good news is that, regardless of the dates when you initially filed paperwork and had an interview, if your marriage is two years old at the time you are eventually granted lawful permanent resident status, then that status will probably be unconditional and there will be no need to ever file an I-751 (unless you're adjusting from a K-1, in which case you may be granted conditional status regardless of the age of the marriage).

If you actually received conditional status, then you would file the I-751 for removal of conditions during the 90 day window prior to the two year anniversary of gaining conditional lawful permanent resident status. Again, the date of filing an application doesn't matter, it's the date status is finally granted that's relevant.

ACP,

Remove conditions from what?

I was wondering the same thing, there is absolutely no information on your profile other than that your local office is in Manchester, NH.

ACP, You are leaving us in the dark, and we are flying blind. Tell us more about your situation.

now 09/2006 - it has been almost 2 years (and 90 days) since i applied for Adjustment of Status...

At this point I would be hoping the AOS gets approved after December.

1. No, you should not apply to remove conditions from your residency, because you haven't been granted residency yet.

2. As someone said above, if I were you, at this point I'd be hoping my AOS wasn't granted until after the two-year anniversary of my marriage.

3. That said, have you considered getting your Congresspeople involved? It seems like it's been nearly a year since you last had any information on your case, is that right?
