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.
