Hi everyone,
So my wife has been here in the USA for 1 month. We were married December 15, 2021 in the Philippines.
I just paid the $220 uscis immigrant fee today (I got a letter in the mail, I have no idea why this wasn’t included with all the fees from before...)
I believe with the cr1 she will receive a 1 year green card at some point in the next 2-ish months.
Is there a way to get this changed after December 15 (we will then have been married for 2 years) so she can get the 10 year green card?
We plan to spend a lot of time overseas starting March or April of next year and having to come back before October of next year will complicate things.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Also we live really close to the southern border so if we need to cross to update anything we can do that pretty easily.
Thanks!
