Renewing green card before or after relocation?

[MLNR 0]

Hello,

My green card is expiring on April of 2010, but my husband and I are moving from Houston, to Gainesville Florida on March, 2010. This is the first time we have to renew our green card after 10 years. Do we have to do it in Florida or we can start the process in Houston and finish it in Florida?

Thanks for your help

So you have a 10-yr card? I believe the rule is that you can send in the I-90 up to 6 months in advance - double check on the uscis.gov

This is an older memo but the info should still be in effect. Otherwise, try info-pass or (mis)information line.

Whenever and wherever it's convenient for you. A friend of mine has one that's expired 5 years ago with no adverse effect, so I think you have quite some wiggle room here.
