What Is Green Card Renewal?
Lawful permanent residents may need to renew their green card if it is expired or will expire soon.
A valid green card is important for proof of lawful permanent resident status and may be required for employment, travel, and identification purposes.
The process involves preparing and submitting Form I-90 to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Who May Apply?
Common situations include:
• Individuals with an expired green card
• Individuals whose green card will expire within the next 6 months
• Individuals who need an updated card due to normal expiration
Each case is unique and requirements may vary depending on the situation.
If you are unsure about your situation or require legal advice, we recommend consulting with a licensed immigration attorney.
