My Wife got to US on K1 Visa for a little over a year now. She got her 2-year green card in Nov. 2009 and I think it is almost time for us to thinking about getting her the 10-year green card.

question: is I-751 the form to use to file? and when should we file it if she got her 2-year green card in Nov 2009?

Thanks!

1. Yes - that is the form to file.

2. Depends on the date that is on her current card - file within 90 days immediately before that date. (this date could be different then when she received her GC)

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.
