Ep 59: What is English for "Expired Green Card?"

What are the implications of having an expired green card?. Tax obligations continue to exist for green card holders even after their status has lapsed.

We discuss the importance of understanding both IRS and USCIS regulations, the process of officially surrendering a green card, and the challenges associated with renewing it while living outside the U.S.

Takeaways

• Your green card may have expired, but you remain a green card holder until officially surrendered.
• You could be subject to exit taxes if you surrender your green card after being a resident for a certain period.
• If you lose your green card, you must replace it before surrendering it.
• You cannot renew an expired green card while outside the U.S.
• An expired green card does not equate to a surrendered green card; there is an official process to follow.
