Lawful Permanent Residents who were issued an Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551), commonly known as a "Green Card," with a ten-year expiration date on the front of the card and the card is either expired or will expire within the next 6 months.

You may submit your Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, up to six (6) months prior to the expiration date on the I-551 card.

• Completed Form I-90 (Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card).
• $110.00 filing fee: By money order or check made payable to: U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service (not just "INS").
• Two (2) color photographs (Requirements are specified on the I-90 renewal application)
• Expiring/expired "Green Card" (the original Form I-551 valid for 10 years)
• Photocopies of the front and back of your expiring/expired "Green Card"  
• Government-issued identification such as a state-issued driver's license, state-issued identification card, U.S. military-issued identification card; or country's passport  

• If you are a renewal applicant AND your name has changed legally from the name listed on your expiring or expired "Green Card", bring documentation of the name change, such as a marriage certificate, divorce decree or other court document.
• If you are a renewal applicant and you were issued your "Green Card" before your 14th birthday and you are now over 14th years old, you must be fingerprinted. You will need to bring a check or money order for the $25 fingerprinting fee (total of $135 for both the I-90 renewal application and the fingerprinting service).
• NOTE: If you have lost your card, please go to your local district or sub office for processing of your I-90 application.

• Take your completed Form I-90 and the other documents listed above to the INS Application Support Center (ASC) in your area which accepts I-90 renewal applications.
• When you visit the ASC, the INS will review your renewal application. If all is in order, your current card will be returned to you along with authorization to use it as temporary evidence of your permanent resident status. The INS will process your renewal application and, upon approval, mail you a new "Green Card" (now officially known as the Permanent Resident Card, Form I-551) valid for ten (10) years.
