My mother in law said that if my Wife ever did end it with me that she'd support me to go to school here, i could stay in the basement until i can transfer to dorm. Would that look good on the Waiver? My Wife and MIL would even write affidavits. My Wife and i just back from Florida too, our delayed honeymoon, tons of pictures. I just think this is crazy but i want to be prepared

So you were in Florida on your delayed honeymoon posting to us?

Are you for real?

No, i wasn't. I posted here about a week after getting back, that's when things went downhill. Please don't post here agin rebeccajo.

As for everything being annoyed at my financial aid, i pay taxes, every single week, so what the hell is your problem? Would you rather spend it on immigrant mexicans? I don't think so. I can get an education and become a meaningful part of your American society with this financial aid, which i intend to. And once i become a lawyer, you can call me...

Also, my Wife is my sponsor, my mother in law filled in the I-864a, and i am currently living with her. She advised me to start college in the fall, this way if things did come to the worst as she has seen her own daughter be crazy at times, i would be able to stay in the US and start a career. Having my mother in law vouch for me, is that a good thing?

I want to be married, my Wife says she doesn't anymore. My mother in law says if i want to stay in the US unmarried if things go wrong she sees no problem with that.

Trust me, i don't want this to happen. I'm not the one wanting the divorce, my Wife is so i want to be best prepared in case she means it.

I think that last posting was out of place and inappropriate for a grown person to write. Depending on the university, financial aid to overseas and USC students is made available freely and often with government grants.

As to the OP's questions, yes, it is OK to live and work wherever you want in the U.S. with your conditional green card. It is up to the USCIS to evaluate whether or not to issue the permanent one based on the evidence you present showing that a bona fide marriage had existed up to the point you fell apart as a couple.

And if i get a divorce, could i wait until 90 days before my conditional green card expires to inform the USCIS?

Out of place??? Its a perfectly legit question, did someone sponsor him to come to USA?? If someone did, then he/she should cover the burden, isnt that why one must sponsor or be sponsored in order to come to the USA??

No, that's to live. It's the land of the free as far as education is concerned. US Citizens and Permanent Residents alike, don't be immature. For your information i received a government grant, if that puts you at ease.

*BUMP*

Hello,

When the time comes for your removal of condion you need to get new Affidavits from your friends and families that know you since your AOS adjustment or longer. The affidavits need to support the facts that you are a legitamet couple, living together. You need to collect all new documents from now on till your removal that show joint bank accounts, utility bills credit card statements. Filed jointly Income tax , Car and House Insurance in both of your name.

My familes i can get it, hers might be a problem now. Her mother would thought i think. We filed joint tax together, we have joint bank and credit card. We live with her in alws so there is no house insurance, and she has a car on a joint loan with her mother, her mother would testify that i pay half of the bill though, sometimes all.

Wow..that was short. I really do wish you the best.

It's not a given, but my Wife has put it out there and i want to be best prepared. My original mindset was to go home if she did take action, but i have just been granted financial aid for college and would have such a big opportunity here, i would not want to let it slip over a failed marriage.

Are you sure of this? I thought i had to wait until the removal time presented itself, 90 days before the expiration of your conditional green card, no earlier?

If not, how do i go about getting the form now.

In the situation i am talking about, removing conditions independently, would they be useful to prove the bona fides of the relationship when entered?

Hi guys,

I have several 3rd party affidavits from when i successfully adjusted my status for a conditional greencard, one from a best friend of my Wife's, one from my mother in law, and others from my friends and family back home in England. However, they were never looked at.

When trying to remove conditions by myself, would these come in handy to help prove that our marriage was entered into in good faith? The one from my mother in law also states that we are living under her roof and are to do so for as long as we please.

If i show them in my removal of conditions interview, will the officer know that they were not seen in the green card interview, and in turn could it look like i'm trying to cover something up to them?

If you divorce before your conditional green card is up, do you have to take any action before the 2 year anniversary of removing conditions?

I have a question. If I am not mistaken, the law states that if a beneficiary can show that they entered into the marriage in good faith, they will be presumed to not be at fault if the marriage does not work out. My question is this: How would USCIS construe this if the beneficiary is the one who files for divorce? Will the beneficiary still be presumed to not be at fault?

It depends. Some states have no-fault divorce like Ca. We never went to court & we did all by mail. As long as you can support the good faith marriage by providing evidences to the USCIS then it's up to them if they'll approve you or not.. One thing that it matters to me is that in my application for a new passport (PI for instance), I need to be the respondent for me to obtain a new passport in my old name or new name..

I am very confused as to what you meant when you said you needed to be the respondent for a new passport. What's "PI"? Will you clarify for me?

PI: Philippines. For me to obtain a Philippine passport, I should be the respondent in my divorce to a foreign national. That was during my I-751 stage, I travelled back to PI and needed a new passport. But now I am a US Citizen. But when I submitted my I-751, I submitted evidences like a regular I-751 filers with all docs from my marriage etc..

Did you have an in person interview for the removal of conditions after divorce, and if so what was it like?

Thank you. Do you know if i would have to inform the USCIS right away? Or wait until removal of conditions, which is another year and a half away.

If a situation were to rise where my Wife and I split, even divorced, before my conditional greencard expires, would i be required to inform the USCIS? Also, with a greencard am eligible to reside in another state if i find work there?

Patience goldfee! lol.

I got my GC in the mail 2 days ago!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOLDFEE!

Capital One also has cards specifically for people new to the country and who have no credit history.

ditto. I got one from them just by applying online thru their site.

But they declined me

I don't like Capital One anyway (understatement) so I'm not that fussed I guess I'll look into a secured card

Bank of America looks best...

Are you sure?

I started with Capital One a few months ago. No credit history and was approved for a $500 limit. Had it for three months now, and its been increased to $1000. Just have to ensure that you pay it on time.

Pretty simple. Just apply online and you'll be approved with nothing more than your SSN.

The irony is, they denied my application!

Hmmmmmmmmm - that is strange. Perhaps if you call them and speak to someone over the phone. I've heard that works better.

I could call them but since i already applied i think there is a 2-3 month gap in between which you can apply again?

I was denied a store credit card also.

I am now a joint cardholder for my Wife's small credit card. ($500 limit)

heho

mombasa iam glad u made it home save:-))

here is sunny and we had nice weather in the upper 80...really cool

soooooooo iam in the final days.....tuesday is my big day..pls prayyyyyyy all for me iam soo worried...

Don't be worried Goldfee, everything's going to go smoothly for you!My prayers are with you on your interview day.

Congratulations to all the updated approvals and good luck to the rest of the interviews, it's only a matter of time!

I'm still waiting on my green card here, already have my welcome letter. Hopefully tomorrow as that will be 10 days since my interview.

Hi VJ Family, so my Green Card has been approved and should be with me next week. My question now is, how do i build a credit rating here in America? I tried applying for a couple of the lower end credit cards before i received my GC but nothing.. should i try again now? Say a $300 limit, use it, and pay off the full balance... over and over. Is that a speedy/steady way to build credit?

My goal is to have a good enough credit rating so that starting in 2010, if i so wished i can access school loans, car payments, and eventually in a few years a mortgage on a house for my Wife and I.

Any advice? I'm 20 so trying to get my head around the whole thing!

Thanks in advance,

Richard
