Not funny at all. As folinskyinla pointed out, most people don't think about death and never consider that the USC spouse could die during the period of postponement. But s**t happens, and such an event would have doubly serious consequences for the intending immigrant
- no spouse, which could not have been prevented, and
- no 'Green Card', which COULD have been prevented.

Yes - I am paranoid but at least I know that I am.

Seems strange you cannot get a GC if the USC spouse dies, but if the marriage breaks up, you still can provided it was 'entered into in good faith.'
Btw if a perm GC is good for 10 years, what happens after the 10 years are up? Do you just automatically get sent a new one, like with credit cards?

The CARD is good for 10 years, but the status is "permanent" -- you just file an I-90 for a "replacement" card. BTW, that can now be done on line if you have a checking account.

As I can currently file in person at my local office though, if it continued, I'd probably do that.
Moot really as I intend to apply for Citizenship and hopefully? they will let me have it.....
(Not that I've done anything "bad" mind you).
