QUESTION
Will get deported if I haven’t applied for removing condition because we don’t have money to pay for it yet?
Asked on Jun 25th, 2017 on Immigration - Washington
More details to this question:
My green card will expire soon and I don't think we can afford to pay for the condition removal or whatever it is called. I came here in the US almost two years now with a spouse visa. I don’t know about it and I'm kind of scared that they will deport me if my green card is expired. I don't want be away from my husband and kids.

You will pay a lot more to rectify your status if you do not file a timely I-751 petition to remove condition.

If you don't file, it will be more difficult to remove conditions later, after your conditional permanent resident status expires, because you will have to show why you did not file timely. I recommend that you scrape up the filing fee or borrow or something, but it is so much better for you if you go ahead and file timely.
