There’s no “grace period” after your green card expires. You’re technically out of status. Here’s what you need to do:
-
Renew ASAP: File Form I-90 to renew your green card before it expires to avoid a gap in your lawful status.
-
Renew Promptly: While there’s no official grace period, USCIS usually gives some leeway for renewal. Don’t push your luck – renew now!
-
Unlawful Presence Matters: Staying in the US without a renewed green card can lead to serious consequences like deportation.
-
Consider Other Status: If your green card expires, you might still be able to stay legally with a valid visa or work permit.
-
Travel Woes: A green card is needed for smooth re-entry after traveling abroad. Renew before your trip to avoid issues.
