Q: How Long Does It Take to Renew a Green Card?

A:  The green card renewal process can vary depending on USCIS workload and other factors. When you file Form I-90, you will receive a receipt notice that provides a 36-month extension of your green card’s validity. This extension helps you continue to work, renew your driver’s license, and travel while waiting for your new green card. To avoid delays, make sure to provide all required documentation when applying.
