Apply for a social security card that removes DHS restrictions

Apply for a full term REAL ID from your state's motor vehicle department

If you've more than 90 days left before the 2 year anniversary of your the "Resident Since" date on your green card, consider filing I-90 to correct your green card. If it is less than 90 days, or you have filed I-751, you cannot file I-90.

File I-751 90 days before the 2 year anniversary of your "Resident Since" date.
