Hi,

Can someone please give us some advice on how to resolve our problem. I am asking this questions on behalf of my sister and niece. My sister is married to a US Citizen and she has a daughter in the Philippines. The couple petition my niece (my sister daughter) and she arrived in the US (SFO port of entry) in March of 2007. In SFO Immigration, she was given a spousal document and of course she signed. I don’t understand why she was given a spousal document. She came in US as immigrant petition by her Mother and Stepfather. I thought when you have an immigrant visa, you automatic to get a green card good for 10 years. She is given a 2years conditional status. It states that her spouse has to file a petition to remove the conditional in her anniversary date which is 2009. I am worried because she needs to go back to Philippines to finish her college education and this might create problem when she comes back. Can you please give us some advice on how to straighten this problem.

Thank you,
roselyn
 
GC issued to family members are issued on the same terms as that of the principal immigrant.

The principal immigrant in this case is the child's mother who married a USC. If the mother was married for less than 2 years at the time her GC was approved she would have been issued a conditional GC valid for 2 years in 2007 and should file for removal of conditions in 2009.

The same conditions would apply to her daughter.
