Removal of Conditions
What is Conditional Permanent Residency?
Conditional permanent residency is a temporary status granted to certain individuals who obtain a green card through marriage or investment. This status requires the individual to prove, after a period of two years, that the marriage or investment was not entered into solely for the purpose of obtaining the green card.
To remove the conditions on their residency, the individual must file a petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within 90 days of the two-year anniversary of obtaining their green card. If approved, the individual’s residency becomes permanent without conditions.
