Green Card Renewal is Really a Very Easy Process

Many people think that green card renewal is a very tedious and lengthy process. Actually, it isn’t such a tedious process, provided you know how to go about your green card renewal. These cards, which are also referred to as permanent residence cards by many are only meant for people who have obtained their permanent resident status in the United States. The cards are issued by the government department, which is often referred to as the USCIS or the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The green cards display the photos of the holders, along with their names and other personal details.

Green card renewal is very important because all legal residents of the United States are expected to carry a green card, and mind you, there is no point in carrying an expired green card. Foreigners who fulfill the eligibility criteria are granted permanent resident status, which will not expire with time. However, the green cards, which are essential for proving their legal status, are valid only for a period of 10 years. Hence, green card renewal on time is crucial, as your legal status depends on that.

The process in detail

The very first step in the green card renewal process is filing form I-90, which is for replacing your Permanent Resident Card. Please note that this is applicable for those who hold green cards that have 10-year validity. People who are conditional residents, meaning those who hold green cards that have a 2-year conditional validity are not eligible to apply for green card renewal using this form.

In case your green card is damaged by water, or fire or whatever, or, in the unfortunate instance of you losing your green card, you can still file the green card renewal application Form I-90. To make it a lot easier, Form I-90 can be now filed online itself by participating in a simple eligibility quiz. Don’t forget to submit a photocopy of the green card you hold currently along with your green card renewal application. One piece of good news is that there is no fine or penalty for renewing expired green cards. However, if you are a bit lethargic and allow your cards to expire, you can end up with serious problems. In such cases, the USCIS decides that you no longer deserve your legal status, and you are likely to lose it.

Once you have filed the I-90 application by filling them online, the USCIS will review it. The green card renewal process is all set, and don’t be surprised if the USCIS asks for any supporting documents. Of course, they do this only if they feel they need some more supportive information in order to approve the application. The last step is approval of your green card renewal application, after which the new green cards are mailed to your address (the address you provided while filing your application) and you are done.
