Q: Was my removal of conditions done on time?
My conditional green card expired on January 20, 2022. USCIS sent me a I-797 notice of action and the received date by USCIS was also January 20, 2022. Was my removal of conditions done on time or will be considered late filling?
A: As long as you filed the i-751 within ninety days of the conditional green-card expiration date and because you have the 797 receipt, you should be fine.
Tia L. Smith and Kevin L Dixler agree with this answer
A:
I agree. If the USCIS has accepted the filing, then it will review it. It is when the petition is rejected that is often cause for concern. If the petition was filed let, then an explanation may make a difference. However, there are alternatives if the petition is rejected or subsequently denied.
The above is general information, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney client relationship.
