Does the 2 years of conditional green card count towards citizenship?
As long as you become a permanent resident at the end of your conditional residence period, your two years as a conditional resident will count toward the waiting period for citizenship.
Can I renew my green card if I get divorced?
The vast majority of green card holders are mostly unaffected by a divorce. If you are already a lawful permanent resident with a 10-year green card, renewing a green card after divorce is uneventful. You file Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, to renew or replace the green card.
Why is my green card only valid for 2 years?
Why Your Green Card is Valid for Only 2 Years If your marriage is less than 2 years old at the time your residency was granted, you will be given conditional residence. Your conditional status will expire in only 2 years. USCIS uses this period to ensure that the marriage is bona fide (genuine and real).
How do I get a permanent green card after 2 years of marriage?
You and your spouse must apply together to remove the conditions on your residence by filing Form I-751. You should apply during the 90 days before your second anniversary as a conditional resident. The expiration date on your Green Card is also the date of your second anniversary as a conditional resident.
