If you ARE divorced, you were supposed to file to remove conditions ASAP after divorcing. If you ARE divorced, you need to file the ROC and you should probably call USCIS and explain your mistake and ask for advice. Again...only if you already ARE divorced.

You were supposed to ROC right after your divorce. Start now and make some calls to make sure everything will be ok.

:thumbs:

ROC = Removal of conditions. You were a conditional LPR upon adjusting status. You now have to file to remove conditions in order to get your 10-year green card. Since you are divorced, you will have to file your removal of conditions paperwork with a divorce waiver (meaning you will not be filing jointly). You will need your divorce decree as well as evidence that the marriage was entered into in good faith.

USCIS number: 1 (800) 375-5283

Your filing for ROC after a divorce? Did I miss that? Once the divorce is final you can petition for removal of conditions. See the form I-751 instructions. AHMap posted the following, Oct 2011. http://www.uscis.gov.../i-751instr.pdf on page 2 it explains how to do things.

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=745218a1f8b73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=4ca43a4107083210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD other link did not work for me. USCIS site i751 divorce

f You Are No Longer Married To Your Spouse or if You Have Been Battered or Abused by Your Spouse

If you are no longer married to your spouse, or if you have been battered or abused by your spouse, you can apply to waive the joint filing requirement. In such cases, you may apply to remove the conditions on your permanent residence any time after you become a conditional resident, but before you are removed from the country.

The evidence you need is to prove that you married your husband for love, not for immigration purposes. Those old copies will be fine because you are divorced so you guys of course will not have present paperwork/accounts/contracts together.

Gather all paperwork, pictures, anything you can think to show that your marriage was made out of love.

Did you change your address with USCIS? It is the law to do do. Please do that ASAP. Otherwise, the mail will be going to what ever address they have on file. Please call USCIS, ask to speak to a "tier 2" person and discuss your situation with them. You really need to file that ROC ASAP.
