Been married for 2 years and waiting on FBI name check

[omar 0]

Hi,

Tomorrow it will be 2 years since I married my wife (US citizen). I've been on the FBI name check stage since January of this year. When the GC finally does go through, will I receive a non-conditional 10 year green card or a conditional 2 year GC? Isn't the 2 year conditional GC issued when you are married less than 2 years? Which I won't be after tomorrow. Also, any ideas when I should expect the name check to be over? It's already been almost a year!

Thanks,

OK

Howdy

Our second anniversary is tomorrow as well. We're still waiting for my husband's green card because of FBI name check. From what I understand, if you've been married for two years or longer as of the date that the application is approved, you receive a 10-year card (i.e., no need to remove conditions).

Here is a link to the most recent page of the name check thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...694&st=2160

Join us over there for a kvetch-fest!

To answer your other question, unfortunately, there's no way to know when the name check will be completed (my husband has a common English name). It's been almost two years since we applied for AOS. We could get good news next week, or two years from now. That's really the worst part. We've contacted senators and written letters. No one can do anything, and we're just told to be patient. And fork over lots of money to renew interim benefits.

It's starting to make me grumpy.

Then help the stats for the board

I am not sure how long the name check should take but there used to be a reg that the FBI had to complete it within 120 days. Have you tied and info pass?

Have you placed an inquiry and look at it this way--you;d get the 10-year card God willing. We've been married almost 3 (3rd anniv in 2 weeks!)!!! We're stuck too...we haven't even had an interview...
