The United States Government explains how to renew, correct or replace your Green Card. For your information, to carry out this task, you will need to fill out Form I-90.
Then, once you have gathered the necessary information to complete the Form I-90, you must calculate the cost. Another thing you need to take into account is if you need to update your home address with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Renew your Green Card online in the U.S.
First of all, get the latest version of Form I-90. Only current acceptable editions are accepted by USCIS. Visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-90 for more details. There are several reasons why a person may need to renew their Green Card. Among the most common cases, there are:
- Name change or to correct other information
- Loss, theft, or damage Permanent Resident Card
- Replacing an expiring card
In case you are not aware of this, if you are a conditional permanent resident, you can only replace your card. So, only lawful permanent residents can get a renewal. Conditional permanent residents must get either Form I-751 or Form I-829.
How much does Green Card renewal cost?
The cost of your Permanent Resident Card renewal will depend on the reason you need a new card. The easiest way to find out how much the filing fees are is to check the USCIS tool.
USCIS has a fee calculator to find out the cost of your Green Card renewal. All you have to do is select the Form you will be using. For example, Form I-90 for lawful permanent residents and Form I-829 or Form I-751 for conditional permanent residents.
Check USCIS official website for more details about the Green Card fee calculator: https://www.uscis.gov/feecalculator. Apart from Green Card renewals, some citizens may need to update their address with USCIS once they have applied. Do so at: https://www.uscis.gov/addresschange
