After obtaining her visa and do not open package, there should be a note on how to pay the new immigrant fee. Pay that, either before she goes or after she's in the USA, you have up to a year to do so, and then welcome her home with a big hug. :)

Its about the I-751 coz i filled for CR-1 it was saying that in the 2 year anniversary of her ARRIVAL, 90 days prior to that i need to submit the I-751 that will extend the 2 years to 10 years. and if you fail to submit it within that 90 day window she will be deported back :-( If you submit it to early they will reject it. I guess they wanna see if your marraige is working fine before they accept it.

ok - i was confused, thinking 'to renew residency' implies that residency already exists.

since it doesn't exist for her, yet (she's not in the USA, has no green card) I was even further confused,

thinking she had to do something about renewing residency in her currrent location.

it's ok - no worries but

for filing for a 10 year card, i suggest you not waste any brain sweat on this until the first card, the 2 year card, is in her hands.
