Hi,

I filed my i751 singly 3 years ago. Too bad I lost the copy. Now I may need that as evidence for my N400 interview. anyone knows how to get another copy of filed I751?

Thanks

Are you asking about the form itself or the NOA? The NOA holds much more value in it since it is an official document generated from USCIS. I would schedule an infopass and try and see if you can get copies of items you need. Did you get extension stamps in your passport? Those would help too.

Sorry to hear it has been 3 years.... wow!

Yes, 3 years :(

I'm asking about the form inself, because what I need to prove here is that I filed I751 under "the marriage entered into goodfaith but terminated with divorce...", not filed jointly.

can you be more specific with infopass steps?

Thanks

Well, as I mentioned, the NOA will hold more value since the form you can fill out as many times as you want, and print as many copies as you want. If you file the N-400 after the 5 years, USCIS officers could care less if you are married or not. I beleive your NOA letter will indicate that you filed for removal of conditions not jointly but I can't be sure about that.

As for the infopass, you can schedule online https://infopass.uscis.gov/ and see if they can provide you with any letter or information that would support your original petition.

If she didn't file the I-751 jointly then she would have to wait until she's been a PR for 5 yrs and meets the other criteria to file N-400. To the OP: you say you "MAY NEED".....Why do feel you need the I-751? Do you have any divorce documentation? USCIS most likely will have the orginial I-751 and supporting documenation in your file. I would assume they approved your removal of conditions since you applied for naturalizaiton and have had a valid green card ever since your conditional one expired.

Yes, I applied N400 based on 5 year rule.

I said "I may need..." because I just want to prove USCIS that I didn't file the I 751 jointly by the time we were separate, but maybe there's no need to prove this since you said USCIS should have the original I 751 in my file already,

And yes, they did approve my 10yr GC without interview.

Thanks

forgot to tell you that, I do have my divorce decree, but didn't file it with my I 751 because by the time to apply for I 751, my divorce was not finalized yet (it took 6 months) although the separation started 3 months prior to the day I applied for I 751.

So, timeline is:

- 7/ 2007: filed for divorce, separation started

- 10/2007: filed for I 751, not jointly

- 1/10/2008: I 751 approval, no interview

- 1/26/2008: divorce is finalized

Thanks again
