I-751 Waiver of Joint Filing Requirement
What is A Waiver of the Joint Filing Requirement:
A Conditional Resident has a two-year green card through marriage. The Application to Remove the Conditions is most often filed by the LPR and his or her spouse.
When the marriage relationship fails, the applicant and his or her spouse do not qualify to file a joint application to remove the conditions. A request for a waiver of the joint filing requirement is the solution. The LPR with conditions may qualify to file to remove the conditions on his of her own.
Am I Eligible for a Waiver

3. You entered the marriage in good faith, but you have been battered or subject to extreme cruelty by your petitioning spouse; or
4. Your conditional resident parent entered the marriage in good faith, but you have been battered or subject to extreme cruelty by your parent’s U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or by your conditional resident parent; or
