We guide lawful permanent residents through the I-90 process to renew or replace their green cards quickly and accurately.

I-90: Renew or Replace Your Green Card

Your Green Card is not just a document—it’s proof of your lawful permanent resident (LPR) status in the United States. If your Green Card is expired, lost, damaged, or contains incorrect information, you need to file Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card.

At Ram Law Firm, we help clients navigate the I-90 process with ease and confidence, ensuring you maintain valid documentation and avoid issues that could affect travel, employment, or other benefits tied to your immigration status.

When to File Form I-90

You may need to file an I-90 to renew or replace your Green Card under the following circumstances:

  • Your card is expired or expiring within 6 months
  • Your card was lost, stolen, or damaged
  • You never received your card after it was issued
  • Your name or other biographical data has changed
  • Your card contains incorrect information due to USCIS error
  • You were automatically converted to permanent resident status and need a new card

Note: If you’re a conditional resident with a 2-year Green Card, do not file Form I-90—instead, you’ll need to file Form I-751 or I-829, depending on your situation.

Why Timely Renewal Matters

An expired or missing Green Card doesn’t mean you lose your permanent resident status, but it can significantly impact your ability to:

  • Work legally in the U.S.
  • Travel internationally
  • Prove your immigration status to employers, government agencies, or law enforcement
  • Apply for U.S. citizenship through naturalization

Our legal team ensures your I-90 is filed correctly and on time, so you’re never without proof of your lawful status.
