What Form I-751 is

If you got a 2-year green card through marriage, you file Form I-751 to remove the conditions and get a 10-year card. You need to show the marriage was real from the start. If you file together with your spouse, you also show your life together.

Can I add photos to my I-751?

Yes, many couples do. The instructions do not require relationship photos or set a number. Choose photos that show your life together during the last two years.

Note: the passport-style ID photos on the I-751 checklist are something different. Check the current checklist for those.

How to organize them

  • Pick photos from different times during your 2-year card.
  • Write the date, place, what was happening and who is in each photo.
  • Put them in date order and remove near-duplicates.
  • Check the current I-751 instructions before you file.

Send photos with your other records

USCIS examples include owning property together, a shared home, shared money, children and letters from people who know you. What you have depends on your situation.

File type and size

If you file online, follow the upload rules on screen. USCIS’s general tips say each file must be 12 MB or smaller, in PDF, JPG or JPEG. Case Album keeps each photo PDF under 11 MB. If you mail it, follow the mailing instructions.

This is general information, not legal advice. Check the current USCIS instructions for your form, or ask an immigration attorney about your own case.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need photos for Form I-751?

No, they are not required and there is no set number. Photos from your 2-year card period can support records like a shared lease and bank accounts. The passport-style ID photos are a separate requirement.
