Any advice would be appreciated.

★ In order to renew my permanent residence, I need

① current green card
② Japanese passport
③ drivers license
④ finger print
⑤ Address and mobile number

Is this enough? ？
Do I also need to provide proof of taxation, bank statements, proof of payment of electricity bills, etc. ？
I would appreciate advice from someone with experience on what documents I need to prepare.

★ Also, can I leave the country once I receive a letter that my application has been accepted?
Or can I leave the country until the card itself arrives?
I am worried about my elderly mother because I don't know what will happen to her anytime soon.

If anyone knows, I would appreciate your advice.

Oh, I see 💦

I was hoping to get some advice from someone with experience. 。。。。

If I told you not to ask here, the board would be useless.

I renewed mine 2 years ago. I believe I was able to renew 6 months in advance, so I did the renewal process online in January, 6 months before it expired in July.
I had heard rumors of people taking a long time to get their cards, so I decided to renew early, but I received my card 2 weeks after I applied, and the month it expires is also January instead of July, so I felt a little lost 😅
Well, I was happy to get it so soon.

All I needed to do to renew was fill out the 1-5 that Topy gives online and upload the photos. They also took money for the advisory collection, but for some reason I didn't have to do that because I was exempt.

Might be different from 2 years ago, but just FYI😊.

Thank you all. I appreciate you taking the time to write this.
I was actually bummed when I was told not to ask here and to google 💦
But a few hours later, I opened this again and was relieved to see that you had written something helpful.
I'm glad Gigi and Reila's advice confirmed what I needed, and I'm glad to hear that there are blessed
cases like Gigi's. I was surprised because I had heard so many stories of major delays. I imagine it was because it was around the time of Corona that we were exempt from
fingerprinting just for paying the fee.
Reila, thank you for sharing the fee as well. Even if the current rate is a little higher than that,
it would be helpful to have an idea of whether it is $540 or a little more. （ I don't think it will go up by $1000, so ）

I am glad I consulted this forum. Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Just look for USCIS I-90 Renewal online, fill out that form, and attach the required documents online.　Fingerprints are generally not required as they do not change.　Once the I-90 is filed online, you will then be contacted if Biometrics （ fingerprints and photo ） are required.
If you have the receipt of your I-90 application, you can enter the US for 24 months, even if your GC has expired.

今年の4月から更新の費用が＄415に値下げしてますよ。
オンラインの場合は$415,こちらの方がサクッと終わり簡単です。
レシートがすぐ送られてくのでそれを持っていれば、国外へいけます。ただ…ランダムで申請から２ヶ月くらいで指紋採取に来るようにとレターがくるとその決められた日に行かないと次のアポとかがややこしくなります。
海外に出た際に自宅にもしもグリンカードが届いてる場合そのカードでしか入国できないので注意しないといけないです…滞在先にカードを送ってもらうかとかしないとダメみたいですよ。

普通に10年目の更新であればもうデータがほとんどあるためオンライン入力も本当に簡単です。名前の確認とか住所の確認とかetcあとは自分の持ってるグリンカードを写メして〜って最後に更新料をオンラインで支払えば終わりです。

色んな人がわかりやすいYouTubeとかで書き方やらやり方を載せてるので迷ったら参考にされるといいですよ。
本当そんなに構えなくても簡単です。

このトピに対する皆様のコメントを読んでいて、便乗で質問させてください。すみません。

更新は基本、アメリカ国内でとなっていますが、オンラインで申請が出来るということは、日本から申請しても移民局は分からないということでしょうか。そしてもし指紋採取となったときは渡米するしかないと思いますが。。。。
住所もアメリカにあり、子供たちもそこに住んでいます。親の具合が悪く、私だけが現在日本にいます。永住権はまだ切れていません。パスポートのコピーも申請時には提出しなくて良いようなので、これだと日本からオンラインで申請しても、もしかしたらカードが1ヵ月くらいで届くのでしょうか？？？それともそれは無理な考えでしょうか。
出来る限り親のそばにいてあげたく、11月末に永住権が切れるのでどうしようか悩んでおります。

You can go to the U.S. Embassy in Japan and inquire about switching your Glynn card.

If an American citizen says "Green Card",
they will just ask which credit card.

I guess it would be better to ask at the US embassy in Japan.

You can just inquire and ask.

You should be able to apply from Japan.
After applying, you will receive a form I-797C at home as proof of acceptance, and even if you don't receive your green card at worst, as others have said, you can enter the country with that form.

I hope Biometrics will be exempted. Take care of your parents.
