plan to travel while awaiting lifting of conditional 2year residency

[w8inglongtime 29]

----------------------------------------------------

Thank you for explaining all of these.. yeah i know that i should file within 90 days before the GC expires. But can i mail it already 2 days or 1 day before it start the 90 days counting of the expiration date? because it will take 3 days or more before they can receive the mail. Does it matter to them if example i mail it in few days advance but they will receive it on the date within my 90 days period of my GC expiration. example if i will mail it on oct. 24th and they may receive it on oct. 27th which is the start of my 90 days.. can i do that? I'm just curious because we were planning to travel by January.. Please help me..

By the way.. is there possibility that you can be denied..? I have some of the requirements but not all of them.. What are the important requirements that i should be submitted? Thank you again.. i appreciate a lot for you help..

Answer to Question #1 :Even if they get it a day before it's due to be filed, they will return the whole package to you. Just mail it on the first day of the 90 day window for peace of mind. You don't travel till next year anyway so why the rush to send it before the clock start ticking?

Answer Question #2 : There is always the possibility of denial with every case. That usually is the case with very questionable cases or very "LEAN" evidence. Denial on ROC however are very rare. Scroll through all the months for this year filers on VJ and you'll see 99.9% of us got approved. You can tell us what you have as evidence and we will all chime in. Good luck

w8inglongtime is correct -

for the 1st question - no one really knows what they mean with 90 days, is it when package is mailed, is it when application is signed, is it..........? What we know is they go by the day the receive it, but I think most people play it safe and just send it on the first day they are eligible - this way we know they will receive it and not return it. If they return the application because it is early, then it will delay your process by at least 2 weeks.

As for the 2nd question - denials are possible, but if you are still married and living with your spouse, that's already good enough for approval. They need some evidence, but it is not always possible to provide all the recommended documents. In that case, it is always good to include a cover letter and briefly explain some of the reasons why some evidence is missing. For example, assume someone lives with parents and all utility bills are in the parents name. They can include that info in the cover letter which shows lack of utility bills as part of the evidence not submitted. Then, the parents could write affidavits explaining the situation from their point of view.

If you like to share the list you are going to provide, we can throw in our 2 cents and give you some feedback.

Be extra careful mailing too far in advance. There are plenty of posts reporting that USCIS sent the application back, because it arrived even just 1 day before the 90 day period began. So, don't hope for the U.S.mail to be slow. Sometimes you will be ( in this case unpleasantly ) surprised. You could mail on a Friday if Monday is the day, but I would not mail it on a Monday, when Thursday is your day.

As far as being denied is concerned, of course you could be denied. However, that would or could happen ( hopefully not ) only after the initial review long after you have mailed in the I-751. Initially you receive the NOA letter from USCIS confirming receipt of your application and the one year extension.

We were out of the country a couple of weeks ago and travel again on Thursday, while we are going thru the process. No problems.

There are only 2 requirements, or, better, conditions, on which the adjudication of your I-751 is based upon:

1) That you are still married to your husband

2) That you still live together.

If that's the case and you can show this by having a lease in both your names, a joint bank account, file taxes together as a married couple, there is no reason why your petition should not be approved.

Can anyone offer some general feedback on whether it's worth it for us to wait an extra two months (we'll be separated during that time as usual!) so that my husband can get an IR-1 permanent green card instead of a temporary one? We've been separated so much already it seems like it might be worth it not to have to deal with yet another round of stress regarding his immigration status. The ironic thing is that we are bereft at the prospect of missing the holidays together -- if we were gaming the system, we wouldn't care.

On that note, have any studies shown whether these rules actually catch the scammers? Because they mainly seem to make life miserable for real couples.

If you can, wait for the IR-1.
