Green Card Renewal Overview
Green card renewal may be filed if you card was valid for ten years and is about
to expire or has already expired. If your Green card is lost, mutilated, stolen
or destroyed you should replace it. If your name or any other biological information
has changed since your Green Card was issued you should renew it. If you have
taken up Commuter status, or were previously a Commuter and are not taking up
permanent residence you should renew your Green Card. Also, apply for a Green
Card renewal if you have an old edition of the card.
United States permanent residents or Green Card holders must understand the
importance of Green Card Renewal. Expired Green Cards holders may be considered
"out of status" and may be denied entry into the United States. Keeping your
proof of permanent residence current and valid is imperative. Check the
expiration date printed on the front of the card You should renew your Green
Card immediately if your Green Card was issued over 10 years ago and is expired
or is about to expire. Complete and file your own Green Card renewal application without the assistance
of an immigration attorney with the Green Card Renewal Application Guide. It was
developed to help a United States permanent resident (Green Card holder) to file
his or her own Green Card Renewal application.
