However, you must protect your rights and if you entered into the marriage in good faith and the marriage was bona fide when you married, you can apply for a waiver of the requirement that your husband file the I-751 with you. Your question is very case specific. It is imperative you consult with an immigration attorney to protect your legal status in the United States.
