The I-751 petition is used by conditional green card holders to remove the conditions on their permanent resident status. It is typically filed by individuals who obtained their green card through marriage and need to prove that the marriage was entered in good faith.

The I-751 petition is a critical step for conditional residents to transition to unconditional permanent residency. It confirms that the marital relationship is genuine and not solely for immigration purposes.

Form I-751 is used by individuals with a 2-year conditional green card to request the removal of conditions and obtain a permanent 10-year green card, usually based on marriage to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
