removal conditions on 2 year green card

[Ok,and I am assuming that on income tax returns they will be able to see where i worked and will finde out that i did not lived with my husband.Should i better work on cash without any records of emploement? And if i will do so,will they be able to see that i am going to school in New York and by that prove that i did not lived with my husband??? Or it will be better to work on check and pay taxes,so they could see i am lawfull resident? Reason of leaving my husband to go to school is good enough for them?? or they will tell me why i didnt go to houston or around area where my husband (texas) instead going all the way to New York. Will it help if i will come back right before my green card expiration,or they will be still suspisious???

What, in your opinion, would be the best explanation for leaving my husband???

Hi!
I am in a similar situation but only I need to go back home for the summer while my I-751 is pending. We have already submitted it but we have to part for a few months. I don't know if that is ok with USCIS. I hope so.
Anyway in your case I don't understand if you have already submitted your I-751 or not. But if you work for cash then whata re you gonna put on your taxreturn form? BTW they can't really know where you worked from the 1040 form because you do not put your employer's address there. The only paper with an address is the W2 form but they do not ask you for it. And even if they did the employer's address may differ from the place where you actually work. The address on the W2 is the one of the corporate office which may be anywhere in the US, not the one that you work at. Don't worry about that!
Explain them the truth if they inquire. Prove that you still keep bills together and keep in touch and visit and that's it! If you wanna go to school noone will blame you!! This is actually the kind of residents the USCIS wants to promote to citizens! Not some "noone guy" with no education working for fastfood joints for life!!!
But there is one thing that I wonder about: do they call the married couple again for an interview as with I-485? Cuz if so it will be hard for me to get on a plane and come back here, you see.
Please if you know anything about that let me know!
Thank you!

Hi,

I know that they can process your case without interview,if all papers look good! In lots of cases( i know a person personally) they just need you to take fingerprints and pictures, but if your papers look suspisious they will schedule an appointment with an officer as with I-485. But I know that pending process for I-751 take a year.So if you submitted yours reasently than i think u will be abble to return on time.Also if i were u i would check if u need permission to travel.From my understanding period when you I-751 is pending,they consider you as nonstatus.Because u dont really have green card yet.So u would check with them about travel rules while your case is pending.And also i think u will be abble to reschedule your appointment if u will not be abble to make it.I did it myself when i had appointment for I-485.I bought nonerefundable and nonchengable ticket and after a few days i got a notice about apoinment.I sended them a request about reschedule and left without responce from them.To be honest i was fricking out,but when i came back thay did reschedule my appointment and everything was OK.You just have to give tham a good reason.

i did not submitted I-751 yet,because i just got my green card month ago.But if i will go to another state from my husband i am planning to work on check and pay taxes,because i think it will be more valuable for USCIS than working on cash and hiding my taxes.But I was afraid that they will see on tax returns that i work in different state from my husband.If u say thay cant really say from the 1040 form so that is ok. Can thay check on theirs computers that i really went to school?? And should i use a credit cards and be on the lease where i am gonna go to school or should i still keep quite.??? When u were submitting I-751 did u need to submitt supporting papers as well automaticly or they ask for it? Do u think the process of getting green card for 2 years if more diffecult and they pick on it more than process of getting 10 year green card?
Please let me know if u know anything about that!

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the reply!
From what I understand you just gor your conditional green card and wanna move to another state to study and live on your own without your spouse. If that is so you will have some hard time providing evidence that you keep your marriage "alive". My lawyer asked me for all papers for the I-751 package. It was a BIG paskage, much bigger than the one with I-485. It included all bills with both names for the months after the I-485 interview till the date of the I-751 application. This is like 1 year and 8-9 months. Sorry, I know it is a lot! I mean the gas bills, the rent teceipts plus a letter from your landlord that you have really lived together for that time, all the bank statements fromm the joint account, from any joint insurance or anything else that you share, Any receipts of hotels you stayed together at, plane tickets etc. Anything that proves things you have done together! Anything you can think of! The more the better!
And I do not believe they can check on a computer just like that where exactly you have worked, if you were paid cash or if you hid your taxes.They do not care about that, this is IRS! Haven't you filed a 1040 before? Check it and see what it looks like, there is no employer's address on it! It is only on the W2 form but they won't ask you for it! So don't worry about it! Work wherever and however you want but make sure you provide the abovementioned documents! If anything else botheryou let me know! I might help!
Good luck!

removal condition

Hi,
thanks for your reply,it halped me a lot!!!!

What if i will be abble to provide all nessesary information about being married with my spouse (bills,rent,insurance, itc.) but will they be abble to check somehow if i physically lived with my husband? Is it any way for them to track my records where i was living physically??? Like using credit cards or something like that?


thanx

I am not sure about it. Of course they should have their ways of checking stuff if they want to. The question is whether they will want to.
But I absolutely do not believe it that they check every case that way (I mean if the couple phisically lived together and so on). It is impossible to check every case but they probably check some cases. I do not know which ones. If you want to be certain talk to an experienced lawyer. They know more about that kind of stuff (just to be on the same stuff).
But there is something else. In some cases they call the couple for an interview again (just like with I-485). And as far as I know this happens when the I-751 package somehow "stinks" (if you know what I mean).
So you just make sure that you got all the papers (the more the better) and you should be allright). When the time comes send the I-751 package and then wait. If you get in any kind of trouble seek an experienced immigration lawyer from a big city!
And why did you say that the process takes a whole year?!
I checke the processing times at http://www.immihelp.com/timings/california.jsp and it says 6 months over ther for the California center. A whole year is just too long! But anyway...we'll wait and see!
Good luck!
