Removal of conditions in 6 months - unemployment of spouse

[germanela82@gmail 0]

Hello everyone,

this forum seems super helpful but also gives me anxiety ;-) I feel for everyone here, looking for advice or someone to say: YOU'LL BE FINE!

I'm here to get some advice:

I have a Greencard and in 6 months, me and my wife need to file for removal of condition.

My partner is a producer/writer and we had a health scare. She's now thinking about taking a break and going on unemployment until we go into production in fall.

We are certain she will be back on her feet late summer but it would be good for her to take a break and to rest.

Will a stint on unemployment affect my petition?

Thanks for the help :-)

She cannot "go on unemployment" unless she is laid off. If she leaves voluntarily, she won't qualify. Perhaps her doctor can apply for her to go on disability for medical reasons, however.

Hi,

i understand. Thanks. But if she was laid off and gets unemployment would that affect my green card ?

Thanks for the response

I hope she's better soon

No, the affidavit of support was submitted for AOS (or prior if CR1). The removal of conditions focuses on evidence supporting your marriage, no evidence of continued employment is needed.
