If you have enough time to read up on it and follow the examples (but use unexpired forms) you can do it. If you lack time, then you could pay someone - its rather easy otherwise. Good Luck

Of all the steps in the immigration process, the typical I-751 is probably just about the easiest to do without a lawyer. A change of address might be easier, I suppose.

Still, collectively we may know all about the ease/difficulty of the I-751, but we know nothing about your abilities and talents. Nor do we know about your financial situation. So we can't say whether or not you should use a lawyer. Some people can make careless mistakes that can cause them serious problems, so an extra set of experienced eyes may be useful. For example, if you've read the guides and you still think your wedding anniversary date has something to do with when you should file the I-751, then maybe you need someone to help you through the process.

Also, if you have an unusual situation, such as a marriage that's on the verge of splitting up, or some other situation where your proof of a bona fide marriage might be in question, it might be wise to consult with experienced counsel.

Totally agree with this response. Most people should not need help and this is the easiest of all the forms to complete. There are also threads in this area relating to what others have sent in as evidence

Why waste your money?

It's really easy to do it yourself and if you read on this forum you will find an answer to any questions you may have.

Good luck!

Hopefully you won't have to deal with Nebraska Service Center because they suck big time

I agree with others ..... it was very easy to fill forms ourselves . I was expecting them to be close to the original forms , but was not even close . My wife and I did everything ourselves , and just looked on here for help.

Good luck !

To be honest, I think it is just waste of time and money to hire a lawer to file immigration related application.

Nowdays, we can get whatever info that is helpful for your case for USCIS or Visajourney website.

Technically, only youself cares about your case, I do not think lawer is willing to spend enough time for your case and they only care about money.

I filed I-765, I-485 and I-751 all by myself after I looked through enought information through website of USCIS, however, if you can not read English, I would suggest you hire a lawer.

With the AOS, we paid an attorney $2000 to help us, because we didn't have a clue how to go about dealing with immigration. Now for the removal of conditions, we are going solo without an attorney becaue we are now more familiar with immigration. If you hire an attorney, you still have to gather all the info to give to the attorney to photocopy. Its definitely not worth it to pay an attorney to do something thats easy to do at home in my opinion.

I paid $1,500 for I-751 just because I did not bother to check the procedures. My lawer is great, but still my I-751 was prepared by paralegal (nice and smart but young girl). We all know that we need proof. Some proof which lawer suggested anyway was too late to get (travel tickets, etc-I actually never thought ot it as proof till too late and it was lost).

My lawer was confindent that affidevits are not nescesary (he has prob about 20 years of immigr experience and very good reputation). More financial docs.

The application per se is very easy. If I d checked this forum prior, i would send appl by myself.

Lawer's help might be handy only if were asked for interview (which I understood from my lawer are quite random and which I have learned from this forum could be abusive). If you get lawer at later stage (for interview for ex), it is same money.
