    I’m a real life 90-day fiance who has jumped through these hoops.

    Depends on what your definition of forever is. Technically, after getting married and getting the conditional greencard (no minimum time of being married and valid for 2 years) there is a pathway to have the conditions removed and be a US citizen even if the couple divorces before the 2 year mark.

    So, it takes 2 years from the issuance of the greencard (so meaning they can be married for longer) before one can apply for the conditions of the first greencard to be removed. If you meant US citizen, it takes 3 years of being a greencard holder before they can be considered for US citizenship.

      You ever been accused of being a user for the green card? Like the US is some magical location draped with money. Are you still in US? Congratulations.

      Also went through this (now a citizen and still with my husband).

      But I’ve seen people get divorced while still in the process of removing the conditions and citizenship. The most common reasons of divorce I’ve seen is 1) Some of them are victims of abuse cause it turns out their husbands were terrible people, 2) others truly just want the green card/citizenship. Most of the time, people stay together cause they do truly care for their partners. But reason #1 is as common as #2 which is sad.
