CASE: I-751

APPLICANT: Burkinabe

LOCATION: Mayfield Heights, OH

Our client contacted our office in December of 2019 regarding his I-751 application.

He is from Burkina Faso and he married a U.S. citizen in August 2016. Through his marriage, he obtained a 2-year conditional green card in March 2018.  His conditional residency terminated in March 2020.

To comply with immigration requirements, our client and his wife had to file an I-751 Joint Petition to Remove Conditions. He retained our office on December 27, 2019. 

On January 3, 2020, our office filed the I-751 application. The USCIS eventually issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) to demonstrate the bona fideness of our client’s marriage with his wife. We filed an extensive Response to RFE to the USCIS with more bona fide marital documents on February 2, 2021.   

As a result, on May 5, 2021, the USCIS approved our client’s I-751 application and our client received his 10-year green card which removed the conditions.
