Use this form to replace your Green Card.
Before filing Form I-90, use our Check Naturalization Eligibility tool below to see if you are eligible to become a U.S. citizen.
Check Naturalization Eligibility
DO NOT submit this form if you are a conditional resident seeking to remove conditions on your Green Card.
If you are a conditional resident, you must submit one of the following:
Beginning in January 2021, if you are applying to renew your Green Card, your Form I-90 receipt notice (also known as Form I-797) will say the following and can be used with your expired Green Card as evidence of your lawful permanent resident status:
This notice provides evidence of your lawful permanent resident status for 12 months from the expiration date on your Form I-551, Permanent Resident Card (also known as a Green Card). You remain authorized to work and travel. This notice, presented with your expired Permanent Resident Card, is evidence of your status and work authorization.
If you do not have your Green Card or your card expired more than 12 months ago, you will need evidence of your lawful permanent resident status while waiting to receive a new Green Card, and we may issue you an Alien Documentation, Identification & Telecommunications (ADIT) stamp after you file this form. Additionally, if you applied for naturalization at least six months before your Green Card expired, you may be able to receive an ADIT stamp valid for up to 12 months instead of filing a Form I-90. If you need assistance, contact the USCIS Contact Center.
If we already accepted your application to renew your Green Card and you have not been issued a biometrics appointment notice, we will mail you a new receipt notice to use with your expired Green Card as temporary evidence of your lawful permanent resident status.
If you do not receive this receipt notice or your notice is lost or damaged and you have a USCIS online account, you can print a copy of the notice for your records. If you need to demonstrate proof of status or have a need to travel, please reach out to our USCIS Contact Center.
As a lawful permanent resident, you must have a valid, unexpired Green Card or equivalent documentation with you at all times. Applying for naturalization does not change this requirement.
Form Details01/20/25. Starting May 29, 2025, we will accept only the 01/20/25 edition. Until then, you can also use the 04/01/24 edition. You can find the edition date at the bottom of the page on the form and instructions.
Dates are listed in mm/dd/yy format.
If you complete and print this form to mail it, make sure that the form edition date and page numbers are visible at the bottom of all pages and that all pages are from the same form edition. If any of the form’s pages are missing or are from a different form edition, we may reject your form.

If you file Form I-90 on paper, we will scan the documents into our system for electronic processing. If you do not already have a USCIS online account, we will create one for you once we receive your paper application. You will receive a USCIS Account Acceptance Notice with instructions on how to access your USCIS online account.
Note for Attorneys and Accredited Representatives: You should have only one USCIS online representative account. When you receive an Account Acceptance Notice for a paper form filed at a USCIS lockbox for your client, please ensure that you enter the same personal information that you provided on the Form G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Accredited Representative, submitted with your client’s original application, petition, or request. If the information you use to access your online representative account does not match the information you provided on the Form G-28, you may be unable to access your client’s case.
Even if you do not use your USCIS online account, we will continue to process your properly completed and signed Form I-90. You will receive notifications and updates about your application by mail through the U.S. Postal Service. If you need assistance, contact the USCIS Contact Center.
If you move, you must update your address with USCIS. You can do so through your USCIS online account or by filing Form AR-11, Alien’s Change of Address Card (online or by mail).
You can find the filing fee for Form I-90 by visiting our Fee Schedule page.
If you file your Form I-90 by mail (paper), you can pay the fee with a money order, personal check, cashier’s check, or pay by credit card or debit card using Form G-1450, Authorization for Credit Card Transactions. If you pay by check, you must make your check payable to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
When you send a payment, you agree to pay for a government service. Filing fees are final and non-refundable, regardless of any action we take on your application, petition, or request, or if you withdraw your request. If you pay by credit card or debit card, you cannot later dispute the payment. Use our Fee Calculator to help determine your fee.
If you are submitting multiple forms, pay each filing fee separately. We are transitioning to electronically processing immigration benefit requests, which requires us to use multiple systems to process your package. We may reject your entire package if you submit a single, combined payment for multiple forms.
