Question about dates for filing for removal of Conditions

[alibaba16 2]

Hi - My husband entered the US on Sept. 20, 2011 with a CR-1 visa. We were married in Sept, 2010, so less than 2 years prior to DOA. In his passport, there is a handwritten date on the admission stamp next to his visa which says 18 Sept. 2013. I assume this is our 2 year "anniversary date". His green card also has an expiration date around that time.

So if I'm not mistaken we will need to file the I-751 packet around June of 2013.

Question #1: Do we need to do anything before this time? My husband is under the impression he needs to send in some sort of letter around now (1 year after arrival)? I can't find that info anywhere and I think he's probably confused !

As far as evidence, I'm not worried - he works, we own a house, have a newborn, bank account, etc. I don't plan on sending in piles of info as it's pretty obvious we have a life together, but is there anything else we could do just to make the process faster.

Question #2: we plan on visiting his family next spring - do you think he'll have trouble coming back into the US on his passport and green card if it's well before that 2 yr anniversary date?

Thanks so much!!! Was glad to be able to take a break from all this paperwork over the last year, but looks like there'll be a bit more coming up...

The date that matters is the expiration date on his Green Card. Your window opens 90 days before that date. Nothing has to be filed before that.

And no, he will not have any issues re-entering the U.S. as long as he has his passport and Green Card (not expired) with him.
