Remove conditions on a green card
Family
A green card through a marriage younger than two years is conditional. Form I-751, filed in the 90 days before the card expires, removes the conditions and makes your residence permanent.
The forms
The petition to remove the conditions on a two-year marriage green card.
Requirements
The steps
90 days before the card’s expiration date — the check computes it from your card.
The receipt notice extends your status and your proof while USCIS decides.
Some cases are decided on paper; others get an interview. Approval replaces the conditional card with the permanent one.
How it works
In English, Spanish, or Portuguese. The software puts your answers on the official USCIS forms.
Your evidence is sorted into a numbered exhibit index, and every field, signature, and document is checked for completeness.
Download the assembled packet and file it yourself — or have an independent licensed attorney review and file it for you.
Pricing
Your exact technology fee depends on your petition type and is shown during the free eligibility check, before you pay anything. USCIS filing fees are set by the government and paid by you directly to USCIS.
