Thinking of using a photocopy of your green card when renewing with Form I-90? Here's a quick guide:

Do:

• Make a clear, legible photocopy of both sides of your expiring green card.

• Include it with your Form I-90 application package.

Don't:

• Submit a blurry or unclear photocopy.

• Forget to keep your original green card (USCIS might request it).

Remember:

• USCIS accepts photocopies, but they'll verify it against their records. Discrepancies can cause delays.

• You might need additional documents depending on your situation.

• Follow all USCIS instructions carefully when filing Form I-90.
