What is Conditional Residence?

The Conditional Residence is granted to foreign spouses admitted to the U.S. with an Immigrant visa or via adjustment of status and married with an U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) for less than two years on the date of the green card approval.

The conditional residence, which is valid for a period of two (2) years, must be removed within ninety (90) days prior to the expiration date of the green card.

One applying for Removal of Condition must prove the following:

• Still married with the U.S. Citizen or LPR
• Reside and share life together as a married couple
• The applicant has not been convicted to any crime or felony during the two years of Conditional Residence
