Green Card Expiring
My green card is going to b expire this Nov 07. I am planning to renew it. How much does it cost now to renew? Will I be denied bec. of my previous record (3rd degree forgery in 2001). Now I am going to court this july 07 facing a petit larceny charge. Will this even ruin my chance of getting my green card renewed? How about if I apply for citizenship? Do I need to wait another 5 yrs. to be eligible again? I applied a yr. ago. I passed the test but bec. of my arrest/record I was denied. What are my options? I will be illegal if I don't do anything. I don't want to wait the last minute. How long is the process for rnewing green card? What do I need to apply? How much is it? Pls. help... I am lost!

Re: Expiring Green Card
The fee is currently $260. Given your involvement with multiple criminal acts, all of which appear to be crimes of moral turpitude, and your prior denial, I suggest you retain an immigration lawyer to assist you.

Re: Expiring Green Card
I renewed my green card last year since the first expired 4 months prior to my renewal. From the time of filling out my application to the time I got my green card took about 2 months.
In your situation, it will be tough because I remembered taking Biometrics (getting fingerprinted) and they might see that on your background.
Get a consulatation from an immigration lawyer. that will be a big help for you.
Goodluck to you...
