Question regarding approved I-751 waiver.

So I was wondering especially you guys who did I-751 (waiver ) and got approved. PoppyGirl hon what did you do with yours? Thank you.

Keep the lot every last piece of paper, you might need it and I say might ie Naturalization ;)


I have every last receipt and logged phone call possible.

I agree with Poppy Girl. Keep everything until you become a US citizen *and* have a US passport in your hand. You never know when you'll need some bit of paper to prove something or other. I'm fairly confident that most of the long-time posters here will suggest the same.

Hi milan and poppygirl, I knew both of you got approval for 751 waiver. just curious when you filed 751 waiver, did they
1. throw the joint 751 away; cancel that case with receipt number and just work on the new document you filed with waiver
2. Or they would keep all original papers from joint filing and combined it with the waiver 751 documents you filed on your own.
Because most of the time , after divorce, its hard to get documents to support for waiver 751 from spouse.

Hi Poppy :-) and all
Thanks for the replies. I think if you filed I-751 jointly and got divorced while the I-751 is pending, u have to re-apply new I-751 but this time a waiver based one. Am I correct?

The new filing will be a new filing for the waiver and you will just have to submit the same paperwork as before., and any extra that is requested.
Basically you are starting from scratch again.

Did you not keep copies of all the paperwork you submitted on the joint petition?

yeah Poppy, just keep some of documents which we filed joint petition. Now i am waiting for divorce to be finalized to file waiver. its hard for me to get all documents since most of them are under his name. I dont know if when I file the waiver, will they refer or have a look at the orginal joint one ?

When you file the I-751 on your own, go ahead and include photocopies of ALL the evidence you included with the joint I-751, plus anything more you might want to add after that time.

Just assume they will not look at the original I-751, and give them everything they need to adjudicate the I-751 w/waiver.
