Thank you! Maybe I was getting mixed up and over analyzed. I thought it would mean I have to send it out so it will get there ON May 3rd....

 

So sending it out on May 3rd is best? What if I send it and it isn’t within 90 days? Like 85 days... I’m adding in scenario in case I am a few days late 

 

thank you again

i think you are being confused by the within 90days??

 

within 90 days of 2 years anniversary, that means you can file even 1 day before your 2 years of being conditional lpr... of course nobody will file 1 day before their 2yr lpr.
