My husband and I submitted his I 751 in november, which was already a few months late with a fee waiver because currently we only have one, minimum wage income. Our packet was returned to us, stating there was not enough documentation of our financial situation and they would need the $600 fee. We finally have enough since getting our tax return but we are going on one year of his green card (2 year) being expired (July). How screwed are we? Should we be expecting a letter that says he's being deported? What will happen if he is sent home? Will he be able to return?

From the time we submitted our forms till AOS approval (112 days).

Re-file the I-751, with better documentation of why you need a fee waiver.

Cross all your fingers and toes.

Refile the I-751 and include payment. Deportation is very unlikely. Worst case would probably be having to file to adjust status again. Get it filed and hopefully it gets accepted.
