U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced Thursday
that starting May 31, 2005 aliens must mail applications to renew
or replace Permanent Resident Cards, commonly known as “green
cards,” directly to the Los Angeles Lockbox.
The Lockbox is a processing facility used by USCIS to accelerate the
collection of applications and petitions. Thurday’s announced
change allows USCIS to improve the processing of Form I-90 (Application
to Replace Permanent Resident Card) by electronically capturing data
and images and by performing fee receipting and depositing from one
central location, rather than at the local District Office, Service
Center, or Application Support Center (ASC).
Beginning on May 31st, aliens filing a Form I-90, regardless of their
state of residence, must mail those applications with an application
fee of $185 and a biometrics fee of $70.
Applicants should NOT include their initial evidence and supporting
documentation when submitting the Form I-90 to the Los Angeles Lockbox.
All applicants will receive a notice for a biometrics processing appointment
at an ASC and will submit their initial evidence during that appointment.
All applicants will receive their biometrics appointment notice in
the mail.
