Apply for i751 - married but live separate

[stan K 0]

i was looking around in the forums but couldnt find any such case.

what happens if you are married but live in different state from each other.

i have to file my i751 in few months so i am undecided on when i should move out. (due to job reasons)

wife will be joining me a few months later.

If you can document well the reasons why you need to work in different states right now and show that it isn't a permanent situation but only a temporary one, it shouldn't cause any problems. Be prepared to explain the hows and whys of the separation as living separately may trigger an interview. If you are still together as a couple you will file together jointly and if there is an interview, you both attend the interview. I am not sure what you mean by 'undecided about when to move out'.

i meant i havent moved out yet...

but i would like to in a few months.. however in a few months i will also be filing for my i-751.... so things could get complicated.. and i am a tiny bit worried that by the time i-751 is being looked at, i might be called in for interview... and i will be living in different address... i hope no interview again.

i already had interview for the 2 yr card.
