I-751 Removal of Conditions Approval for Nigerian Client in Cleveland Ohio

CASE: I-751

APPLICANT: Nigerian

LOCATION: Cleveland, OH

Our client contacted our office in August of 2018 regarding his I-751 application.

He is from Nigeria and he married a U.S. citizen in March 2016. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in January of 2017.  His conditional residency terminated in January 2019.

To comply with immigration requirements, our client and his wife had to file an I-751 Joint Petition to Remove Conditions. He retained our office on August 22, 2018, and our office prepared an I-751 application for our client with other supplemental exhibits.

On October 16, 2018, our office filed an I-751 application to the USCIS with multiple affidavits from his friends and family members, joint bank statements, joint taxes, utility bills, insurance policies, and photos of our client and his wife to demonstrate the bona fideness of their marriage.

Once the application was filed, the fingerprint notice was issued two weeks later. However, the USCIS issued the Request for Evidence (RFE) to demonstrate the bona fideness of our client’s marriage with his wife. We filed an extensive Response to RFE to the USCIS with more bona fide marital documents on November 19, 2019.  

As a result, on January 6, 2020, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card which removed the conditions.
