Renewals & Replacements: Keeping Your Life Moving Without Interruptions
Most immigration problems don’t begin with a big crisis — they start with something small. A card that expired months ago. A work permit that takes longer than expected. A document the government lost in the mail. A mistake you didn’t notice until someone else pointed it out.
These small issues can suddenly turn into bigger problems, affecting your job, your ability to travel, or even your daily peace of mind. And when you’re already juggling work, family, school, and life, the last thing you need is paperwork slowing you down or putting your status at risk.
At Rebecca Kitson Law, we help you handle renewals and replacements before they become a setback. We focus on clarity, timing, and accuracy — so your life keeps moving the way it should.
What We Help You Take Care Of
Work Permit (EAD) Renewals
Your work permit is the key to your income and your stability. We help you renew it early, correctly, and with the right documentation so you don’t face interruptions at work.
Green Card Renewals or Replacements
Whether your card expired, was lost, or has an error, we help you fix it quickly so you can continue living, working, and traveling with confidence.
Replacing Lost or Incorrect Documents
Approval notices, I-94s, travel permits, residency cards — these documents matter more than people realize. We help you replace them and get your records back in order.
Replacing or Correcting Citizenship Documents
If your Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship is missing or has a mistake, we help you request a new, accurate one so you always have proof of status.
Situations You Might Recognize
“My Work Permit Is About to Expire, What Do I Do?”
A client realizes their work permit runs out soon and panics. We help them file early, track the timeline, and stay authorized to work.
“I Lost My Green Card and Don’t Know How to Replace It.”
Someone misplaces their card or it gets stolen. We guide them through the replacement process so they can avoid issues with employment, travel, or identification.
“I Got a Notice With the Wrong Name on It.”
A small USCIS mistake can cause big delays later. We take care of the correction so their legal documents match their real identity.
“I’m a New Citizen and Can’t Find My Certificate.”
Someone needs their certificate for a passport, a job, or school. We guide them through the process of getting a replacement.
How We Help You Avoid Delays and Stress
We track your deadlines.
Most people don’t realize how early they should renew documents. We help you plan ahead so nothing expires unexpectedly.
We submit complete applications the first time.
A missing signature or wrong document can add months of waiting. We make sure everything is correct and organized.
We explain what matters — and what doesn’t.
Not every issue is serious, but some need quick attention. We help you tell the difference so you can act with confidence.
We keep your case moving.
Whether it’s a renewal, replacement, or correction, we help you stay on track so your life doesn’t pause because of paperwork.
Frequently Asked Questions About Renewals & Replacements
How early should I renew my work permit?
As early as you can. We help you check the timeline so you don’t lose work authorization.
What if my green card expired years ago?
You can still renew. We guide you through the process and explain what to expect.
Can I travel with an expired or lost green card?
It depends. We help you understand the risks and what steps to take first.
USCIS made a mistake on my document — do I have to pay again?
If the error is theirs, usually no. We help request a correction at no cost.
Do I need a lawyer for renewals?
Not always — but many people work with us to avoid delays, rejections, or lost time.
What if I lost everything — my card, my notices, my old documents?
You still have options. We help you rebuild your file and get replacements.

There are moments in life that change everything — and for us, receiving my husband’s immigration approval was one of those moments. But it wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible people at this office. From the very beginning, they were more than just professionals — they were advocates, compassionate listeners. The immigration process is often overwhelming and emotional, filled with uncertainty and long waits, but this team walked with us every step of the way. What truly stood out was their kindness and attention to detail. Every question was answered with patience and we always felt like we were in good hands. They didn’t just guide us through a legal process — they gave us hope, reassurance, and peace of mind during one of the most stressful times in our lives. Thanks to their dedication, my husband’s case was approved — and we experienced a deeply emotional and unforgettable family reunion that we had dreamed of for so long. Your work has changed our lives forever, and we will always be grateful.Posted on Isaac CanalesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

A special thank you to Yolanda at the front office, who was always so welcoming and helpful. Daniel went above and beyond—his communication was outstanding.
