Conditional Permanent Residence for Spouses -
Continued:
If a joint
petition cannot be filed, the "conditional
resident" can file a waiver where: (1) the: spouse is deceased; (2) the marriage was entered into in good
faith but terminated through divorce or
annulment; (3) the marriage was entered in good
faith but the
person was the victim of battering or extreme cruelty; or (4) the termination of the
status and removal
(deportation) would result in extreme hardship,
this
petition can be filed at any time.
Children who obtain status as either a "child"
or "step-child"
based upon marriage of less than two years
also "conditional residents" and must file to
have their "conditional status" removed. Where the parent
is a "conditional resident," the parent can include
the child in his or her application.
