    Sometimes if you were in the US on different status before adjusting, the Social Security card may say "Valid for work only with DHS authorization". This means, employers ask for some other document to perform I-9 verification, such as Green Card and extension letter. The drawback of this is, not all HR at companies know how extension letters work, and start panicking thinking LPR doesn't have authorization to work while I-751 is pending. To avoid all of this, it's best to have unrestricted social security card. You can get it while on conditional GC or 10 year GC by going to SSA office. They can issue Social Security card which doesn't have any extra wording. This card, along with valid drivers license or state ID, can be used for I-9 verification. In this case, LPR can decide NOT to show GC and extension letter to employer and has a right to this. Employer can verify eligibility to work using unrestricted SS card and DL, and it makes things much easier and drama free.

    Ok thanks for clarification

    Your husband can get unrestricted social security card and state ID or driver's license. That's all he needs to show to employer for I-9 verification. No need to show GC and deal with explaining how extension letters work to HR.

     

    Your husband can apply for citizenship under 3 year rule when becomes eligible. That's 3 years minus 90 days from Resident Since date on GC.

    Of course, he needed to live with you all this time in marital union, haven't had trips longer than 6 months and meet physical presence requirements, be of good moral character and pay taxes.

     

     

    What do you mean an unrestricted social and drivers license? We still have yet to hear from the removing of conditions we filed we are preparing to file for citizenship he has yet to get his GC we filed for removing of conditions and have yet to hear anything

    Based on USCIS timelines, it seems like we'll be applying for citizenship before receiving removal of conditions.  I read that once we apply for citizenship, we will basically have an interview that will cover ROC and Citizenship at the same time. Can anyone confirm this?

    I thought we would be able to apply for citizenship too base don us being married for 3years however he has only been a permanent resident since Oct. 2020 so 2 years in October of this year so unfortunately we have to apply to remove conditions first.....

    LuFlolady! Hope all is well!  We applied for permanent residence last November and will be applying for citizenship in October of 2022. We're celebrating our 3rd anniversary May 4th, what a journey, but worth every single minute!! 

    hey checking on you hope you guys are well.... We celebrated our three year anniversary July 3rd however we cant apply citizenship yet because he has only been a permanent resident since Oct 2020(COVID)  so we will lift conditions instead.....

  6. Good morning, I have read thru the guides for naturalization and I just want to make sure I understand correctly.... My husband and I have been married for three years (2019) however he has only been a permanent resident since oct. 2020 (because of COVID and things shutting down) so in essence he has only be a Permanent Resident for 1 yr 9 months.. does this mean he cant do Naturalization and we have to Lift Conditions instead? Thank you in advance!!!! :)

    The green card expiration date has nothing to do with filing for citizenship.

     

    If he meets ALL of the requirements to file at three years (including having been a permanent resident for at least three years minus 90 days), then he can file for citizenship 90 days before the three year mark. 

    Thank you!
