Green Card Renewal

Green Card Renewal

If you are a lawful permanent resident (LPR) of the United States, you may be eligible to renew your green card. You can renew your green card if:

  • Your green card is expired.
  • Your green card is damaged.
  • Your green card has been lost or stolen.
  • Your name has changed.


To renew your green card, you must complete Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card. You can complete Form I-90 online or by mail.

If you are completing Form I-90 online, you will need to create a USCIS account and pay the application fee. You will also need to upload your passport photo and supporting documents.

If you are completing Form I-90 by mail, you will need to print the form, complete it by hand, and mail it to the USCIS address listed on the form. You will also need to include your passport photo and supporting documents with your application.

The processing time for a green card renewal can vary, but it typically takes several months. Once your application is processed, you will receive a new green card in the mail.

Here are the steps involved in the green card renewal process:

  1. Complete Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card.
  2. Pay the application fee.
  3. Upload your passport photo and supporting documents.
  4. Mail your application to the USCIS address listed on the form.
  5. Wait for your application to be processed.
  6. Receive your new green card in the mail.

 

If you are unsure whether you are eligible to renew your green card or if you have any questions about the renewal process, you should contact an experienced immigration attorney.
