My spouse won't sign the I751. I left for another person, I now live with.

Spouse believes I married for a green card. And is dragging out the divorce as long as possible

and I want it done as fast as possible. My CGC expires soon. They want me out of the US

what can I do?

You can apply for removal of conditions even if you're not with the husband / divorced, if you can prove to USCIS that your marriage was in good faith (not for green card).

Agree!

No wonder your spouse thinks that you got married to get the green card if you're still married even though you live with another person.

Moderator's 'hat' off . . .

You do need to file to remove the conditions on your green card within the 90 day window before it expires. You will need to file to request the waiver from the joint filing condition - it is part of the form itself at the bottom. You are in the process of getting divorced even if your husband is dragging his feet, You won't be able to include any documentation with the form as you don't have it, although you should state in a cover letter that you are going through a divorce but it is not yet final. When USCIS gets to adjudicating your petition, they will send you an RFE for the divorce decreee so you still have some time.

Best case scenario - you will have your divorce decree and will be able to provide it to them. Worse case scenario - you will not be able to provide it yet. You can request an extension on a decision until you do get the divorce decree. If the request for an extension is denied, you can appeal the decision or if they do start with deportation proceedings, you can request a stay from the judge until the divorce decree is obtained which will probably be approved unless your husband has clear cut evidence that you did not marry in good faith,

You should provide as much evidence as you can of good faith marriage. You should also be prepared for your husband to contest this and if he has evidence that you did not marry in good faith, may provide it to ICE.

well the bad thing is I said on the waiver I came to see the US and did not do it.

My husband has contacted ICE

and will not rush the divorce

I can't get a waiver because the divorce is not final he won't even do mediation.

I expire in less then 30 days

he is under no obligation to cooperate... maybe time for you to seek an attorney

YMMV
