Jacobson & Han LLP (greencard4you.com) Los Angeles Immigration Attorneys Warn U.S. Residents About Green Card Renewal Requirements www.greencard4you.com Jacobson & Han LLP, Los Angeles Immigration Attorneys Warn U.S. Residents About Green Card Renewal Requirements www.greencard4you.com. In August 1989, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS - now USCIS) began issuing "Green Cards" with a 10-year expiration date and required permanent residents to renew their Green Cards every 10 years. In addition, a "Green Card" that is too old, with out-of-date photographs or is damaged, cannot effectively serve as evidence of current immigration status, registration, identity, and employment authorization or re-entry documents. Current Green Cards have an expiration date stated on the front of the card and expire every ten (10) years. The USCIS puts a 10-year expiration date on "Green Cards" for Permanent Residents, not Conditional Residents (2-year expiration date), to protect against counterfeiting and tampering and to ensure that those individuals who may now be inadmissible, removable or deportable are brought to the attention of USCIS. www.greencard4you.com - 2008-05-06
