-Submit an application form
-Submit proof of your relationship to the US citizen or permanent resident sponsoring you
-Submit proof of your residence in the US
-Submit proof of your legal status in the US

What to do if your conditional green card expires
If your conditional green card expires, you will need to take action to avoid being deported and losing your status as a permanent resident of the United States. You will need to file for a new green card and go through the process of renewing your green card.
If your conditional green card expires, you will need to take action to avoid being deported and losing your status as a permanent resident of the United States. You will need to file for a new green card and go through the process of renewing your green card.
You should start the process of renewing your green card as soon as possible. The first step is to file an I-90 form with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This form is also known as the Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card.
The I-90 form must be filed within 90 days of the expiration of your conditional green card. If you do not file within this timeframe, you will lose your status as a permanent resident and may be subject to deportation.
After you have filed the I-90 form, you will need to attend an interview with USCIS. During this interview, you will be asked questions about your residency in the United States and your plans for the future. You will also be required to provide proof that you meet the requirements for a new green card.
If USCIS approves your application, you will be issued a new green card that is valid for 10 years. Once you have received your new green card, you can continue living and working in the United States as a permanent resident.
How to renew your conditional green card
If you have a conditional green card, you will need to renew it before it expires. The process is similar to the one you used to get your original green card. You will need to fill out an application and send it to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
You should start the renewal process about six months before your conditional green card expires. This will give you enough time to gather all the required documents and to submit your application before your card expires.
To renew your conditional green card, you will need to:
-Fill out an Application to Renew Green Card (Form I-90).
-Gather required supporting documents, including a copy of your current green card.
-Pay the application fee.
-Submit your application to USCIS.
Once USCIS receives your renewal application, they will review it and decide whether or not to approve it. If approved, you will receive a new conditional green card valid for two years. If your application is denied, you may be able to appeal the decision or file a new application.
What to do if you lose your conditional green card
If you lose your conditional green card, you should report the loss to the local police and get a copy of the police report. You should also contact the nearest USCIS office and file Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card. You will need to provide evidence of your identity and residency, as well as a copy of the police report. There is a filing fee for this form. For more information, please see the USCIS website or read the instructions for Form I-90.
What are the restrictions on a conditional green card
If you have a conditional green card, there are certain conditions and restrictions that you must follow in order to keep your legal status in the United States. These conditions are based on the terms of your entry into the country, and failing to meet them can result in the loss of your green card status.
Generally, a conditional green card is valid for two years, after which you will need to apply for a new one. During this two-year period, you must meet the following requirements:
– Maintain continuous residence in the United States
– Do not leave the country for extended periods of time
– Do not violate any U.S. laws
If you fail to meet any of these requirements, you may be deported from the United States and lose your legal status. Additionally, you will not be allowed to return to the United States if you leave without permission from the USCIS.
How to travel with a conditional green card
If you have a conditional green card, there are some special rules that apply to you when you travel. Read on to learn more about how to travel with a conditional green card.
When you travel outside the United States, you must have your passport and a valid green card with you. If your green card is expired, you will not be able to re-enter the United States.
If your green card is lost or stolen while you are outside the United States, you should contact the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate for assistance.
When you return to the United States after traveling abroad, you will need to present your passport and green card to the immigration officer at the port of entry. The officer will stamp your passport and place a date in the ” admission ” box. This date is your expiration date for your conditional permanent resident status.
If you are returning from a trip of less than one year, and your conditional permanent resident status has not expired, the immigration officer will stamp “Crowded Permanent Resident” in the admission box of your passport.
If you are returning from a trip of more than one year, or if your conditional permanent resident status has expired, you will need to apply for a new Green card before returning to the United States. You should contact the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate for information on how to apply for a new green card.
What to do if you have a conditional green card and want to travel
If you have a conditional green card and want to travel, there are a few things you need to know. First, you must have a valid passport from your country of citizenship. You will also need to obtain a travel document called an I-20 from your school or employer. Once you have these documents, you can apply for a visa at a U.S. consulate or embassy. When you return to the United States, you will need to show the Customs and Border Protection officer your passport, I-20, and visa.
How to apply for a travel document with a conditional green card
If you have a conditional green card, you need to apply for a travel document (called a “reentry permit”) if you want to travel outside the United States and return during the validity of your green card.
If you plan to travel, you should apply for your reentry permit before you leave the United States. It generally takes about four to six months to receive the permit, so you should apply as early as possible. You can apply for a reentry permit at the same time that you file your application to remove the conditions on your permanent resident status.
You may be eligible for a reentry permit if:
-You are a lawful permanent resident with a conditional green card;
-You have not abandoned your residence in the United States; and
-You are not under any order of removal.
If you are married to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, and received your conditional green card through marriage, you do not need a reentry permit to travel outside the United States if your spouse accompanies you on your trip.
What to do if your travel document with a conditional green card is lost or stolen
If your travel document with a conditional green card is lost or stolen while you are outside the United States, you should immediately notify the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. The embassy or consulate will issue you a new travel document. If you cannot go to a U.S. embassy or consulate, you may be able to get an emergency travel document from the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of Foreign Missions (OFM).
If your travel document is lost or stolen while you are in the United States, you should report the loss or theft to the local police and get a police report. You should also contact USCIS for guidance on how to proceed.
