Prompt Title: renew green card

Renewing your green card in the United States involves several steps. Keep in mind that my knowledge is current as of September 2021, so you should always check the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website for the most recent information. Here's a general outline of the process:

1. Check your green card's expiration date: A typical green card is valid for 10 years. You should apply for renewal within 6 months before your green card's expiration date.

2. Prepare the necessary form: Complete Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card. You can find this form and instructions on the USCIS website (www.uscis.gov).

3. Gather supporting documents: You may need to submit additional evidence, such as a copy of your current green card (front and back), passport-style photographs, and other documents as required by the instructions for Form I-90.

4. Pay the filing fee: Check the USCIS website for the current filing fee for Form I-90. As of September 2021, the fee was $455, with an additional $85 biometrics fee for a total of $540. However, fees may have changed, so verify the current fees on the USCIS website.

5. Submit your application: You can submit your Form I-90 and supporting documents online through the USCIS website or by mail. If you're mailing your application, follow the mailing instructions provided on the USCIS website.

6. Attend a biometrics appointment: After submitting your application, you'll receive a notice to attend a biometrics appointment at a USCIS Application Support Center. During this appointment, your fingerprints, photograph, and signature will be taken.

7. Check your application status: You can track your application status online using the USCIS website. Use the receipt number provided after submitting your application to check your status.

8. Receive your new green card: If your application is approved, you'll receive your new green card in the mail.

Remember to check the USCIS website for the most up-to-date information and follow their instructions carefully.
