I have a two-year green card through marriage. What do I file to make it permanent?
Form I-751 removes the conditions on a two-year green card, and it requires documenting that the marriage or adoption on which the status was based remains valid and ongoing. Timing is tied to the expiration of the conditional card, and letting the window pass creates a status problem rather than a paperwork one. Cases where the marriage has ended are still filable but follow a different route and need advice.

The record should show a shared life over the whole conditional period rather than at a single moment — joint finances, shared residence, and documentation that spans the two years rather than clustering around the filing date. Thin or narrowly dated evidence is what prompts an interview or a request for more.
