Hi, I'd like to remove the conditions on my greencard myself (divorce), so I have 3 major questions:

1)I need to write a letter to the migration officer. It's a non-abuse case, but still we had a couple of really bad stories after my ex-husband hired a lawyer and I didn't have one: for example he showed me a fake non-suit paper announcing that he had filed a non-suit when he actually hadn't ( he didn't want me to give an answer within 3 weeks' time, so nothing would depend on me after that), so he and his lawyer decided to show me a fake paper that hadn't been filed, I knew about that after looking at the register of actions of our county online. Should I mention that case in the letter to the migration officer and can this be used against him later?!

2)I was corresponding with his mother and his mom also wrote letters to my mom, is it OK legally if I attach the copies of these letters? For example the copy of their letter to my parents after we got divorced? My ex also forwarded me his letter to his lawyer and his lawyer answer to him. Can I attach this letter or it is considered to be their private correspondence even if he had forwareded it to me himself (it was his own will).(in the letter he is asking the lawyer not to file the divorce as we were going to have marriage couseling sessions, the lawyer is answering that it was ok and nothing was filed but on the next day I was served with the divorce paper).

3) During the divorce he and his family were very manipulative. For example when we got married we got a puppy I loved very much. When my husband filed a divorce against me he asked his mom to come home and take the dog away while he and I were having a marriage counseling session. After he brought me home after the session(I didn't have the local drivers' license)he went to his parents' place and they didn't pick up the phone and didn't give the dog back untill I signed the divorce paper they gave to me.

Should I mention that in the letter? The reason why I am asking is that I am afraid is that after that they can start some kind of a case against him and I don't want to be involved in any kind of trials.

They do not want all that extra information.

The letter should be short explain you are filing via waiver because you are divorced. Include the divorce papers and evidence that the marriage was entered into in good faith.

Another question: what exactly do I write on the check $590?! Thanks.

Did you read the I-751 instructions?
Make the check or money order payable to U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Spell out U.S. Department of Homeland Security; do not use the initials "USDHS" or "DHS".

Thanks, I read the instuctions. I am going to fill in the money order form in USPS, it requires not the name only, but the address, too.

Online sample from the internet search

First, it's better to pay with a personal check, since it's traceable and free. But if you chose to pay with a money order, I think Walmart's money orders are cheaper than USPS'. The address to put on the money order is also in the instructions:

If you live in Alaska, American Samoa, Arizona, California, Colorado, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, file with the California Service Center at:

If you live in Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Washington, D.C., Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, U.S. Virgin Islands, and West Virginia, file with the Vermont Service Center at:

Thank you again, I saw those addresses and noticed that there were mailboxes instead of direct addresses there, so I wasn't sure if there is any address of a head office I should mention or addresses with POboxes are acceptable on checks and money orders, too. I thought they were for sending the petitions only. Just wanted to make sure. Thank you:)
