HCP laws for permanent residents?

[Sam1]

Wife went up to the DMV today to apply for her HCP, and they told her she was ineligible because she was a conditional permanent resident (she does have a green card).

We were under the impression that a green card holder, was able to get the HCP, without regard to the conditional status.

Does anyone know if this is the actual law, or a case of uninformed DMV workers?

This doesn't really say one way or the other... http://www.tn.gov/safety/driverlicense/dlcitizen.shtml I don't know how the conditional status is distinguished from unconditional. I assume it states that on the card?

Can she apply to have the conditional status removed? http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=745218a1f8b73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=4ca43a4107083210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD

Uninformed DMV worker. I got my HCP when I was a conditional green card holder. The conditional status is for married people that have been married for less than 2 years and it's there to make sure the marriage isn't a scam marriage.

TY Mike, we'll push it on up the chain.


@ peejman, we have to wait until January before we can file that. It's supposed to be 90 days before your conditional status expires. Edited November 20, 2012 by Sam1

What??? You meant to tell me that a state worker didn't know what he/she was talking about???

That is [u][i][b]SO[/b][/i][/u] difficult for me to believe.
