I-751 and other post arrival activities for a CR-1 person

[In_AR_From_TX 0]

Hello all

Before I continue a big thanks to all the amazing members on this board who helped me with my answers to questions and of course everyone's support.

So I have been away a while the reason for that is b\c my wife finally got her late in 2010. So I am trying to figure something out and I need a little help from the VJ community again. My wife and I were married in November of 2009, so we have been married for less then two years. Her green card is set to expire in 2012.

I know we have to file her I-751 but I am not clear on something. My question is do I file it 90 days before the green card expires in 2012 OR do I file it before our 2 year wedding anniversary which is in Nov 2011?

Also on a related note IF we are supposed to file the I-751 in 2012 (before her green card expires) can my wife travel back to her home country for a few months?

Thanks in advance to all

90 days before green card expires.

re: travelling - be back in USA before green card expires.

You file it 90 days before her conditional green card expires. Good luck on your journey.

Thanks for the info guys and clearing up the confusion.

So I guess the only thing that being married for less then two years matters is when immigration decides if they are going to issue a CR1 or an IR and as far as a re-entry visa for a CR1 person is not necessary if their green card is valid.

Thanks guys
