What Form I-90 is for

Form I-90 is used to renew or replace a Permanent Resident Card (green card). It is not an adjustment-of-status application.

Permanent residents whose card is expiring, expired, lost, stolen, damaged, printed with an error, or needs updated biographic information.

Form content last reviewed 2026-07-29. Always confirm the current form edition on the official USCIS page before filing.

What Asal can help prepare

We support renewal or replacement applications and help organize copies of the card, ID, and any USCIS notices.

  • Prepare I-90 for renewal, replacement, or correction reasons
  • Organize green card copies, IDs, and name-change records
  • Assemble the packet and explain receipt-notice importance

What Asal cannot legally advise on

  • We do not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or case strategy.
  • We do not represent you before USCIS or immigration court.
  • We do not decide whether you qualify for a benefit — USCIS or the relevant agency decides.

If you are a conditional resident, or your status itself is in question, you may need I-751 or attorney review instead of I-90.

I-90 document checklist

  • Current or expired green card (front and back) when available
  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Name-change documents when applicable
  • Police report or written explanation for lost/stolen cards
  • Reliable mailing address for card delivery

Your case may need additional documents. We give you a tailored checklist during a free document review.

Fees and official sources

USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current I-90 filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.

Processing times for I-90 vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.

USCIS government filing fees are separate from Asal document-preparation fees and change over time. Always verify the current fee and form edition on USCIS.gov before filing.

How we prepare I-90 for Berlin Township clients

  1. 1

    Confirm why the card needs action: Common reasons include an expiring card, lost card, stolen card, damaged card, name change, or incorrect card information. The reason changes what evidence should be included.

  2. 2

    Gather card and identity documents: USCIS usually needs a copy of the green card if available, government ID, name-change records when applicable, and any notices related to the problem.

  3. 3

    Prepare the replacement request: The application should clearly explain the reason for renewal or replacement and include matching biographic information.

  4. 4

    Save proof while waiting: After submission, the receipt notice can be important while the replacement card is pending. Applicants should keep copies with their records.

Filing tip

Review official I-90 instructions for category-specific evidence and filing location.

Common problems we check before filing

  • Conditional residents generally use I-751, not I-90, to remove conditions.
  • If the card was lost or stolen, keep any report or written explanation.
  • Name changes should be supported with official documents.

Frequently asked questions

How long does I-90 preparation take?+

Most I-90 packets are ready within 24–48 hours after you provide all required documents. Complex cases with many supporting documents may take slightly longer. We give you a realistic timeline at your free consultation. USCIS processing time after you file is separate and depends on the agency's current workload.

Can you help me if I started my I-90 application somewhere else?+

Yes. We often help Berlin Township clients who started their I-90 elsewhere and want a second set of eyes before submission. Bring whatever you have completed so far and we will review it, identify any gaps, and complete the packet correctly.

Do I need to come to your Columbus office, or can you help Berlin Township clients remotely?+

Most of our work is done in-office at our Morse Road location so we can review original documents in person. Many Berlin Township clients find the drive worthwhile because of the thorough document review. Call (380) 269-7408 to discuss your situation before making the trip.

If you receive an RFE after submission your I-90, call us at (380) 269-7408. We help build response packets and organize the additional documents USCIS is requesting. Note that legal strategy for complex RFEs may require a licensed immigration attorney.
