CASE: I-751
APPLICANT: Chinese
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client contacted our office in June of 2015 regarding Response to RFE for his I-751 application.
He is from China and married a green card holder in August 2013. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in January of 2014. His conditional residency was terminated in January 2016.
To comply with immigration requirements, our client and his wife had to file an I-751 Joint Petition to Remove Conditions. They single-handedly filed the I-751 application to USCIS in January 2016.
However, on June 6, 2016, the USCIS issued the Request for Evidence for our client’s I-751 application. The USCIS requested our client to provide more bona fide marital evidence. To get legal assistance, our client retained our office on June 14, 2016.
Once retained, our office prepared the RFE response. On June 22, 2016, our office filed a Response to RFE to the USCIS with multiple affidavits from his friends and family members, joint bank statements, joint tax records, utility bills, joint lease, and photos of our client and his wife to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.
As a result, on July 8, 2016, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card.
