Re: battered wife(conditional green card )

As long as you are able to prove that when you married your husband, it was an honest or "bonifide" marriage, you should be able to change your conditional permanent residency to permanent residency. Many times, abusive spouses hold the green cards over the heads of the victim spouses. You might need an attorney for this.
