Congrats!

If it has been 15 months how close to second wedding anniversary are you? If you are past that milestone before entering the USA, then you truly will be out of immigration hell.

A person entering on an (IR-1) visa gets unconditional 10 year green card. Or if 2nd wedding anniversary happens between (CR-1) visa issuance and entry to the USA, show the marriage cert to the POE officer, and the officer should code you for the 10 year card.

If less than 2 years married upon entry then your immigrations project wont be over until you lift conditions on the conditional greencard.

Thanks YuandDan,

My husband will be here before our second anniversary. I know about lifting conditions and that the process is not completely over however, I don't mind the wait on the lifting of conditions, my husband will be here in the USA with me which makes a BIG difference to me because we have been apart from each other for 15months, waiting for the lifting of conditions together is a heck of a lot better then being apart :)
