Hello Journeyers,

My husband had a Conditional Green Card (he came on a K1 Fiance Visa) that expired last summer. We appropriately filed the I-751 petition for removal of conditions within the required time frame and received a notice that his Conditional status had been extended another 1.5 yrs while we wait for the I-751 to be processed. 

 

I was filling out some bank paperwork which asked whether my husband is a Citizen or Permanent Resident. I'm assuming that he is not one until he gets his 10 year Green Card. Is that correct? Or is he considered a permanent resident as long as the conditional residency is valid?

 

Thanks!

He is still a legal resident.  His status didn't expire when the green card did.  Even if his extension letter expires, his status remains intact as an LPR..

Thanks!

you dont become a citizen until you naturalize and take a oath. it is not because he has a 10 yr green card.
