Removal of Conditions (I-751)

Keep Your Green Card. Protect Your Future.

If you received a 2-year conditional green card through marriage, you must file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, to maintain your lawful permanent resident status. This is one of the most important steps in your immigration journey — and filing it correctly is essential to avoid delays, requests for evidence (RFEs), or potential denial.

At Nakimax Immigration Services, we help you navigate the I-751 process with clarity, organization, and professionalism.

What Is Removal of Conditions (I-751)?

When you obtain a green card through marriage within the first two years of the marriage, USCIS issues a conditional green card that is valid for two years.
To maintain your status and receive a 10-year permanent green card, you must file Form I-751 during the correct time window.

Failing to file on time can result in losing your status and being placed in removal proceedings — so timely, accurate preparation is critical.

Who Should File Form I-751?

You must file if:

• You received a 2-year conditional green card through marriage

• Your conditional card is about to expire

• You want to become a lawful permanent resident (10-year green card)

You may file:

• Jointly with your spouse, OR

• Individually (waiver) if:

  • You are divorced

  • You are separated

  • You are a victim of abuse or extreme cruelty (VAWA)

  • Your spouse has passed away

  • The marriage was entered in good faith but ended

Nakimax can guide you regardless of your filing category.

When Should You File?

USCIS requires you to submit your I-751 within 90 days before your conditional green card expires.

Filing early, late, or in the wrong category can cause unnecessary delays. We help ensure your timing and documentation are correct.
