Hello everyone,

A very basic question, but I cant seem to find an answer for it. My spouse arrived in USA and obtained a conditional green card / residence card upon the port of entry to USA. Obtained the SSN as well. Now we are wondering if she can go about find a job and work legally in USA before converting the conditional to permanent resident card.

Please let me know. Does USCIS have information regarding this. Thanks,

a permanent resident is a permanent resident... a conditional or not ... all a conditional permanent resident must do is prove a bonafide marriage relationship at two years. period. all benefits of residency are available the moment ant greencard is issued... so yes she can work
