Renewal of Green Card while US Citizenship Application is in process


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I apologize if this has been covered before. My green card will expire in May 2022. I have decided to apply for US citizenship. Would it be an issue if I apply to renew my green card in the middle of the citizenship application process. Or should I wait until I renew my green card to begin the citizenship application process?

Thanks.

You remain a permanent resident even if your green card is expired. If you want proof of permanent residency in the meantime, you shouldn't need to spend money to file I-90 to renew your green card -- you should be able to get an I-551 stamp on your passport on the basis of having a pending N-400.
