I have been in the U.S. for 22 years and it dawned on me that my Green Card is pretty old ( Issued in 1984). It had a pic of me when I was 3 years old ( Im 26 now ). Im a lawful permanent resident. But I need to renew it. I already turned in my 1-90 form and paid the the fees. And my application for renewal is still pending. If I get denied, can I get deported??? What will happen basically??? Thanks

You have committed a misdemeanor....since you have re-filed to renew your green card all you can do now is wait and see if they will deny you or not....there is NO APPEAL if denied....however, you can file a motion to reopen or a motion to reconsider...Please see link below for complete info on renewing your Green card:

Dont worry yourself. My brother got his green card in 1989, the same year he was born. He renew it before he reached his 14th birthday. He was traveling on his green card with his baby pictures until he was 14. When he renewed his green card it took him approximately 9 months to a year. In the mean while he had applied for a temporary green card to travel on. Now he is 18 and now is an American Citizen. You should apply to be a US citizen in which you dont have to renew it. I doubt you will be denied. Ignore the negative comments from other people.

As far as I know, you won't get deported unless of course you violate the law. You just need to renew your card. Have you consider on applying for US citizenship? You been in the US for quite a while, applying for citizenship should not take that long perhaps less than a year. Check out www.uscis.gov

A green card is a "permanent residence card". Permanent means forever. So it never expires, and they cannot deport you except in very unusual circumstances.
The photocard itself does expire, but your status doesn't. Unless you have any criminal convictions or anything, they will send you a new card without any problem.

If you've already filed the I-90, all you have to do is wait. It will take months to get the new card. As others have said, unless you've done something that makes you excludable, you will get your new card.

If you already have a green card, you probably won't be denied. If by chance you are, appeal.

Why would you need a green if you're permanent resident ?
