Re: renewing green card

Unfortunately, your fiancee will not be able renew his green card because he abandoned his permanent residence in the US. You can bring him back to the US in a relatively short time by applying for a K-1 visa. You will have to get married within 90 days of your fiancee's arrival. Once you are married, you will be able to apply for green card for your then-husband. Should you wish to retain an immigration attorney for this matter, I would be happy to help you. Best of luck!
