Hi everybody,

In a few months time I will be a 3-year LPR. I just removed my conditions (I-751) based on extreme cruelty waiver perpertrated against me by my US citizen husband (who turned out to be a complete psycho in recent years) and have received my new 10-year green card.
My question is, would I be eligible to apply for citizenship on a 3 -year basis next year, based on I-751 cruelty waiver that was granted to me?
I'm so glad that we're no longer living together and that I don't have to put up with this nonsense anymore.

Thanks
 
OK, as per my knowledge you have to consult an experienced lawyer. Other wise it will bit on your back when you go for interview.
 
We all know about the VAWA act and how it is abused, you are trying to hide it under "Extreme Cruelty", there is no "Extreme Cruelty" Green Card.
Thanks for possibly scamming yet one of our another fellow citizen.
Welcome to ever so generous America.
To answer your question 'NO' you can't file on 3 years (Extreme Cruelty... LOL) basis, you have to be not only married but also required to be living with the US Citizen spouse to qualify under 3 year basis.
I hope that "complete psycho" will have enough courage to push his congressman to introduce a bill to amend the Non sense bill called VAWA act, that provide protection to Foreign alien women (mostly from Russia) and no protection for the US Citizens who are scammed by these con artists staging abuse cases.

Actually, that is completely WRONG and assumes facts not in evidence and is highly biased and offensive. Yes, there is abuse of VAWA but it was passed for a reason in the first place. Don't jump to conclusions, you were not there.

Thank you, BigJoe5! You are indeed a true gentleman!

Namecheckvictim, or whatever your name is, do you hate all women? Did you mother and father never taught you how to treat a lady? And you don't like Russian women, too?
You sound very racially biased, you shouldn't even live in America, go back your homeland and spew your hatred from there!

.., you are trying to hide it under "Extreme Cruelty", there is no "Extreme Cruelty" Green Card.

Keep your personal biases to yourself instead of instigating such claim towards other forum members.
To answer your question 'NO' you can't file on 3 years (Extreme Cruelty... LOL) basis, you have to be not only married but also required to be living with the US Citizen spouse to qualify under 3 year basis.
Incorrect. Read the act as referenced by BigJoe.
