I-90

Track your I-90 case status

The I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card, renews an expiring green card or replaces one that's lost, damaged, or has an error. The wait can stretch for months, and USCIS won't tell you when it moves. TrackPetition watches your I-90 and emails you the moment its status changes.

What the I-90 is

You file the I-90 to keep valid proof of your permanent resident status. It doesn't change your status — it renews or replaces the card — and the final statuses (card production and mailing) are what actually get the new card in your hands.

Processing time & premium processing

Processing time depends on the reason for filing and the service center. Premium processing is not available for the I-90. Because your card is your proof of status for work and travel, the card-production and card-mailed steps are worth watching closely.

Processing times change constantly — for the current figure for your specific form and category, check the official USCIS processing-times tool.

Common USCIS statuses

You'll typically see "Case Was Received", "Request for Additional Evidence Was Sent", "Case Was Approved", "New Card Is Being Produced", "Card Was Mailed To Me", and "Card Was Delivered". USCIS often re-words equivalent steps; we normalize those so a real card update reaches you cleanly.

Why tracking matters

A valid green card matters for work, travel and re-entry, so knowing when the new one is produced and mailed is the whole point. Same-day alerts on "New Card Is Being Produced" and "Card Was Mailed To Me" tell you exactly when it's on the way.
