I-751 Marriage Based Immigration Question

[Jim101 0]

Just so I understand this correctly:

Within 90 Days prior to the expiration date on my wife's Green Card we need to send the USCIS form I-751 with a Cashiers Check for $625.00 and then she will have the actual permanent "Permanent Resident Card." My wife arrived on a K-1 Visa.

Does that sound correct?

Hope all is well with all of you and best of luck to everyone!

Not really no, you need to read the guide. You need evidence with that and you will have biometrics and possibly an interview as well. Please read the guides.

The $625 amount is correct if you are also requesting to remove conditions for one dependent child.

You are correct on the 90 day requirement. Make sure it is within those 90 days, not a day early or late. I highly recommend you send in a personal check so you can see it clear in your bank account (and also keep it for your records).

As Inky said - read the guides and browse through the threads (especially pinned ones) on this site. Very resourceful and can answer a lot of your questions.
