I converted my i751 from based on marriage to divorce waiver while pending (2 years pending) @SAHIL NIRMALIA
gbagba EllahSep 16, 2024
wow congratulations 🎊 I have the same thing going
Luis ortizSep 16, 2024
@Mel W I am almost in the same situation. Almost, because I am not divorced yet. I am separated from my wife, and at some point my n-400 status and my I-751 is pending for 14 months.
Luis ortizSep 16, 2024
@Mel W Considering your situation, I could get a divorce and file for divorce, that's what I think is best. Anyway, I'm not with that person.
Luis ortizSep 16, 2024
@Mel W My i-751 has been out for 14 months and my n-400 has been out for 2 months.
Mu SaSep 16, 2024
congratulations
Verah AnsSep 17, 2024
@Luis Ortiz you need to withdraw your N400 since you will not be eligible to apply based on 3year rule. However, it’s possible to convert you jointly I751 to divorce waiver.
Verah AnsSep 17, 2024
@Mel W Congratulations 🎊
a vSep 17, 2024
did u file N400 based on 3 yr rule? divorce waiver or abusive waiver?
regardless I was thinking about applying N400- let me know
Luis ortizSep 17, 2024
@Verah Ans I have been a resident for 6 years. I had a first I-751 which I lost because I didn't go to the interview. I lost that one and some others.

@Mel W Congratulations!
Verah AnsSep 17, 2024
@Luis Ortiz oh. that makes sense! if you don’t mind me asking. did you travel abroad with your extension letter without trouble?
Luis ortizSep 17, 2024
Since 2019 I have been traveling with my extension letter.@Verah Ans
Luis ortizSep 17, 2024
If your card has expired and you have an extension, you must present both at the time of entry to NYC.@Verah Ans
Mel WSep 17, 2024
I filed N400 on 3 yr rule but withdrew it along with changing i751 to divorce waiver by letter. @a v
a vSep 17, 2024
did they cancel your N400 after u changed it to waiver- coz I have seen few people who applied N400 on divorce waiver got @Mel W approved with their citizenship.. they didn’t get any crazy questions at all.
Mel WSep 17, 2024
I asked them to withdraw it because it was based on marriage (3yr). they confirmed withdrawal and cancelled my interview. I’ll apply again next year. I didn’t want to take any chances @a v
Verah AnsSep 17, 2024
@Luis Ortiz thanks.
Luis ortizSep 17, 2024
I understand your situation now. But they sent you your green card, right? @Mel W
Luis ortizSep 17, 2024
@Verah Ans One day like tomorrow, the 18th of this month, I will be celebrating 6 years in this country. I am married and have been living there for 2 years.
Mel WSep 17, 2024
it’s on the way now @Luis Ortiz
Ksenia 3Sep 19, 2024
@Mel W Your story is just like mine. I also applied for n-400 twice and went through waiver process for N-400. Thank you for sharing!
momm momoSep 20, 2024
@Mel W please explain what a divorce waiver means? I have pending 751 ?
Mel WSep 23, 2024
@momm momo not sure you got a response to this but it really is just another way of filing. you can simply write a letter to uscis, the same office processing your case with your case number and let them know you want to switch to a divorce waiver. they will likely send you an RFE asking for the divorce decree.
