Employment Card Renewal

Holding a green card based on employment? Here's how to renew it:

  • Yes, You Can Renew! Employment-based  card holders can generally renew their cards.

  • Why Renew? Cards expire (usually after 10 years). Renew before it's too late to avoid a lapse in your permanent resident status.

  • Eligibility: Stay on U.S. soil and avoid actions jeopardizing your status, and you're likely eligible.

  • The Process: File Form I-765 with USCIS. Provide updates, documents, and the fee.

  • Timing is Key: Start well before your current card expires (ideally within 6 months as per USCIS).

  • Life Changes? Update your name, address, etc. during renewal.

  • Employment-Based Renewals: You might need proof of ongoing employment, but the process is generally similar for all green card holders.
