Removing of Conditions while Spouse is Deployed

[Angeli 5]

Hi everyone. Hope you are all doing well. I just have a quick question regarding I-751 Removal of Conditions form. According to the instructions, it should be filed jointly unless if the situation qualifies a waiver. Deployment is not one of those. I will be filing for ROC while my husband is gone. What would I do? Would a copy of his orders suffice this requirement? I would appreciate any of your feedback. I am also asking for this information not only for myself but also for a friend of mine so your information would help a lot. Thanks very much. Apologies if there had been a similar inquiry before.

He will have to still sign the 751 and can be sent from his deployed location. (or sent back to you and you send everything in to apply) You guys can call the military helpline.(1-877-247-4645) The only thing that changes with him being deployed is that if the interview came up before he came back, he wouldn't have to attend because of the deployment.

I see. Thank you so much.

He doesn't need to sigh the I-751 once he was deployed abroad. Read what USCIS said about that.

Q. My spouse is in the military and stationed or deployed abroad. Will U.S. Citizenship Services (USCIS) accept the Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence (Form I-751) without my spouse’s (the petitioner’s) signature?

A. Yes. USCIS will accept the Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence (Form I-751) without the petitioner’s signature if it is accompanied by the required evidence listed in the form instructions, along with evidence of the military member’s assignment abroad (such as a photocopy of the official orders or a letter from the military member’s commanding officer). Contact the Military Help Line at 1-877-CIS-4MIL (1-877-247-4645) to notify USCIS when your spouse (the petitioner) returns to the U.S.

Thank you very much for the response. It's a relief knowing that we still have things here and there to finalize before he leaves in a few days!
