It’s been about 5 months since fingerprinting after filing to remove conditions on my green card, and I still haven’t heard anything.
Last year, after filing to remove the conditions on my green card, I have the electronic record showing it was received, and it’s now been about 5 months since I was fingerprinted, with no update at all.
How long does it typically take these days to receive a permanent green card? I’d also like to know if there’s a way to pay an expedite fee to speed things up.
There’s no option to simply pay a fee to expedite the process. There is a way to formally request expedited processing, but there are specific qualifying reasons for that. You can check the link below and see if any of the qualifying reasons apply easily to a conditions-removal case like yours, and proceed from there.
