How this was calculated
- Amounts from USCIS Form G-1055, edition 10/07/26, and the State Department fee page, read on October 13, 2026.
- Not counted because no agency sets them: the civil surgeon’s medical exam, translations, photos and any lawyer.

Form I-90, the Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, costs $465 on paper and $415 online under the USCIS fee schedule G-1055 dated 10/07/26, a difference of $50. The same fee applies whether the ten-year card is expiring, has been lost, stolen or damaged, or needs a new name after a marriage. The form is only for permanent residents with a ten-year card or an older card without an expiration date; a conditional resident with a two-year card files Form I-751 instead, at its own price. The current schedule lists no separate biometrics charge, although USCIS usually schedules a photo and fingerprint appointment. Renewing every decade costs $1,395 on paper over thirty years. Naturalization on Form N-400 costs $760 on paper once, $295 more than one renewal. A green card that expires does not end permanent residence, but the card is the usual proof for work and travel.
One price for five different reasons
The I-90 does many jobs: renewing a card that expires within six months, replacing a lost or stolen card, fixing a card with a wrong name or date of birth, recording a legal name change, or replacing a card that was damaged. The G-1055 charges $465 on paper or $415 online for all of them, with a short list of no-fee cases in the same schedule. Filing online costs $50 less, and the receipt notice then appears in the online account as soon as the case is accepted, which helps when the old card is already gone.
Wrong form for a two-year card
Holders of a conditional two-year card from a recent marriage do not renew with an I-90. They remove conditions with the I-751, which costs $750 on paper. Sending an I-90 for a conditional card spends a fee on a form that cannot do what is needed.
Renew, or naturalize?
| Choice | Paper fee | How often |
|---|---|---|
| Renew the ten-year card (I-90) | $465 | Every ten years |
| Apply for citizenship (N-400) | $760 | Once |
| Citizenship, reduced fee | $380 | Once |
A resident with a low household income who qualifies for the reduced N-400 fee pays $85 less to apply for citizenship than to renew the card. Eligibility depends on years of residence and time inside the country, which the early filing calculator checks.
