Your identity photo,
captured for you.
US Citizenship and Immigration Services uses an authorized capture process for the photo on your identity document. A self-taken photo does not replace this process. Check your form instructions for any separate photographs required as application evidence.
Check the application route
Replacing or renewing a green card requires a new photo, even if USCIS has one on file. USCIS uses an authorized capture process for the identity-document photo. This does not replace the current form instructions: check them for any separate photo attachments required as application evidence.
Come as you normally look.
Your appointment notice lists what to bring. The photo taken there is the one used on your card or certificate, so dress as you would day to day.
