How to Change the Name on My Green Card After a Divorce

2). Complete each line on form I-90. You must provide your personal information, your birth information and make note of the change you want to make on your green card, which is your surname because of marriage ordivorce.
3). Include a copy of your photo identification and your marriage or divorce decree with your application. Write a check or money order payable to the US Department of Homeland Security in the amount of $450. This amount includes your $365 application fee and an $85 biometrics appointment fee.
