Kinda hard to find info on sending something that isn't required.

LMAO! So embarassing. And my poor husband...I have been driving him crazy asking him to help me sort this documentation. Wow. I am so relieved tho, because I was about to spend my next days at Kinkos making copies. Now I have to buy an album to put all of our nice pics in

If you can, apply for N400. Future is not predicted.

I know some people don't want to lose their original citizenship but I'm just curious as to why you don't want to naturalize as a USC instead.

I just don't feel it is the right time for me yet for many reasons. I am just not ready. I will. Probably between now and the next 10 years ;)

Other than having an American passport and being able to vote after becoming a citizen, I wouldn't be doing anything different than what I already do. I care about and love this country, I am very well adjusted to the culture and everything else, but not the time yet.

I understand your mentality of "doing things the same". However the government and THEIR mentality is very unpredictable right now. And they are the ones who decide the rules that WE permanent residents have to follow. That is why many (and I) are suggesting to just file N400.

Hello everyone, it has been a long time since I came here to VJ.

I am about to apply for my 10 GC renew and I am so confused. 

Do they request supporting documentation (pics, lease, bills, exc.) to be sent or not? I have been reading conflicting information, so I am really not sure.

 

Also is there a specific place to be sending this through mail? I only see the form online but if supporting documentation is needed, where to send it to?

 

I have been searching all over and I find a lot of info on 2 year GC  but very little about the 10 year one.

 

Thank you so much for your help.

Wait, are you removing conditions or replacing the actual plastic card? Also, why not apply for citizenship instead if it’s been 5/5 years since you had your gc? 🤔

OP is renewing the plastic card.

OP has been an LPR for almost 12 years. OP wishes to not naturalize at this time:

Fair enough...

in that case you can file online it online 👌🏽

~~Moved to General Immigration Discussion, from US Citizenship Discussion. - The OP is renewing the 10y card and has no interest in citizenship at this time. Please stick to answering her question and not badger her about citizenship.~~

Hi everyone, yes, it is my 10 year GC, not my 2 year. I am just speechless that it is this easy. I have over 350 pages in documentation that I was reviewing, plus pics, affidavits, exc., and now I find out I didn't need any of that. My oh my...

Still with the mindset of more evidence is better than less!  LOL.  I can't blame you!

[LiszyandKenny 5]

Thank you all for your answers and even questions. In 12 days, I will be filing it online in a stress free way. 😆

I still can't believe I was doing all that for nothing. LOL

[LiszyandKenny 5]

Hi everyone,

 

got another question: since my card expires on 7/19, and I can renew within 6 months of the expiration date, would you consider the first good day to send 01/19 or 01/20?

 

Thanks

Hello everyone, 

 

just wanted to give you all an update and say that I had biometrics done today. Easy and quick. In and out in 5 minutes. 

Got a sticker on the back of the card with a 1 year extension.

 

Now just have to wait for the card to arrive at my place.

 

Thanks for all the help again and hope everyone is having a good day!

[TBoneTX 43,018]

Thanks for the positive update!

[LiszyandKenny 5]

Good morning everyone, 

 

just got another update today saying that the card is being produced. Case closed, done and over with.  All in all, one month between submitting it online to this update today.

 

 

Thank you all again and good luck!!
