Could you please clarify a few things?:

 

What was your original visa? (CR1, K1, F1, etc.)
Are you doing Removal of Conditions (751) based on a marriage to a USC?  It sounds like you are, but just wanting to confirm the details.

Please fill out your timeline so we can assist you better going forward.

 

If your GC is expiring in June 2023, and it was a conditional GC that was only valid for two years because you married a US citizen, then your window to apply will open 90 days PRIOR to the expiration date on your GC and you will need to follow this page:

Yes she is. Since I can’t find c9 in the category option, where do I find the C9 option?

I currently have an F1 visa and I have OPT until June of 2023. I don’t have a green card yet and that’s what I’m applying for. I just don’t see where C9 is not an option unless it’s mentioned somewhere inside the application

You are in the US seeking to adjust your status to that of permanent resident. You posted your question in the forum for those outside the US going through direct consular processing. Your thread has been moved from that one to the forum which reflects your process

This is from the I765 Instructions.

 

Adjustment of Status Categories y

1. Adjustment Applicant under Section 245--(c)(9). File Form I-765 together with Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, or if filing separately, submit a copy of your I-485 receipt notice or other evidence that your Form I-485 is pending. NOTE: If you are an asylee or refugee and have applied to adjust to lawful permanent resident status on Form I-485, file Form I-765 under category (a)(5) as an asylee or (a)(3) as a refugee. Do not file under eligibility category (c)(9). You will need to pay the filing fee or obtain a fee waiver for Form I-765 if your Form I-485 is still pending with USCIS and this is not your first EAD as a refugee or asylee and you did not pay the Form I-485 filing fee for any reason.

2. Registry Applicant Based on Continuous Residence Since January 1, 1972--(c)(16). File Form I-765 together with your Form I-485 or, if filing separately, submit a copy of your Form I-485 receipt notice or other evidence that your Form I-485 is pending.

3. Renewal EAD for National Interest Waiver Physicians: If you are requesting a renewal EAD based on your pending adjustment of status application and an approved National Interest Waiver Physician petition, you must also include evidence of your meaningful progress toward completing the National Interest Waiver obligation (for example, documentation of employment in any period during the previous year, such as copies of W-2 forms). If you did not work as a National Interest Waiver Physician during any period of the previous year, you must explain why and provide a statement of future intent to work as a physician in a qualifying location.
