Green Card Renewal
Attorney in Dallas, Texas

A green card is a legal document that permits a non-U.S. citizen to gain permanent residency so they can live and work legally in the United States. Although some green cards have no expiration date, most expire after ten years. As long as you wish to continue living and working lawfully in the country, you must apply for a new green card before or when your card expires.

Eligibility for Renewal

Having a green card (or permanent resident card) allows you to live and work legally and permanently in the United States. As a lawful permanent resident or green card holder, you must replace or renew your green card if:

• Your green card has expired.

• Your green card will expire within the next six months.

• Your green card was stolen, misplaced, or destroyed.

• You received your card before you were 14 years old, and you are now older than 14.

• You have decided to take up actual residence in the United States.

• Your status was automatically converted to permanent resident status.

• Your green card contains incorrect information.

• You have legally changed your name.

• You didn’t receive the previous green card issued to you.

An experienced attorney can help determine whether you are eligible and enlighten you about the best time to apply for green card renewal.

When to Renew

The time frame for renewing your green card mostly depends on your immigration status and other surrounding circumstances. However, to minimize the possibility that your green card expires before getting a new one, it is advisable that you start the renewal process at least six months prior to the expiration date. A knowledgeable attorney can enlighten you about the renewal process and help you complete and submit your documents.

The Renewal Process

A green card renewal can be done online or by mail. Here are the steps involved in the green card renewal process:

• Complete your renewal application either online or by paper.

• Gather your supporting documents.

• Obtain and complete your forms.
