Green Card -Renew, Expired, Or Lost

If your Green Card has expired, been lost, stolen, or damaged, it is crucial to take the necessary steps to renew or replace it. The Green Card, also known as the Permanent Resident Card, is an essential document that serves as proof of your lawful permanent resident status in the United States. It is important to maintain a valid and unexpired Green Card to ensure you can continue to live, work, and travel in the country without any issues.

To renew your Green Card, you will typically need to file Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The application process involves providing personal information, supporting documents, and paying the required fees. If your Green Card has been lost, stolen, or damaged, you should also report the incident to local law enforcement and obtain a police report. Additionally, it is essential to notify USCIS about the loss or theft and follow the necessary procedures to replace your Green Card promptly. Failure to renew an expired Green Card or replace a lost or damaged one can result in complications, such as difficulties in obtaining employment or reentering the United States after traveling abroad.
