Do you know what’s the filing fee to remove condition? Do you know which form to use?

Please read the guides, and use the USCIS website.  If you’re confused or unsure of the processes, you should look into an attorney.  No one here minds assisting, but you seem very unaware, and that could be to your detriment.

 

The fee is $680. The form is i751.

Thank you very much! I have never used an attorney for any of my paper work. I’m coming from a K1 visa, got my 2 yrs green card and now I’m removing my condition and I never received a RFE( request for evidence). The only reason I would get a lawyer is, if my case was complicated. But, I’m just here like everyone else asking questions. Because I’m sure many people here already been through the process.

 

I read on the website that it was $680, but I just wanted some clarification, because a family member was telling me that’s not it.

 

Thank you again.

you can always use citizenpath website to fill out your form it takes about 20 mins and their customer service is amazing I think their fee to fill it out is $80+/- but you can use this code for 20% off RAFP10891 the form itself is easy but with their help you are 100% sure it is filed correctly. Good luck

Again, it was just for your well being.  The process, for a simple case, is doable without an attorney, but to not know what the form is used, made it seem as though you were less informed than you actually are, which made me concerned that you might run into problems, which no one wants.

 

Fees and forms should always be taken right from USCIS as they are the most accurate and up to date.

Thank you very much🙏🙃🙂! Sometimes in life we just need clarification from someone who has been through the process or a person who was already informed on what needs to be done. Just to make sure we are on the right path. However, I do appreciate you looking out for my best interest.

I agree with the advice in the previous posts. The I-751 petition is relatively straightforward & can be done without an attorney, unless your case is exceptionally complicated. And there is plenty of good advice on this forum for simple clarifications with the process.

 

I just want to clarify one point regarding the I-751 filing fees. The filing fees is $595 + $85 biometric fees per conditional resident petitioner. So the total fees will be $680 if you are the only conditional resident applicant. However, if you have any conditional resident children also applying on the same form (this wasn't clear in the OP), you would also need to include additional $85 biometric fee per conditional resident children. 

 

USCIS has a new Online Fee Calculator tool to avoid any confusion with the filing fees. The filing fees & biometric fees can be paid together as a single payment using check/credit card/money order.

Good luck!
