    Hi,
    Is it possible to renew Resident Card before Expiry, My Family Resident Card Expires on 24-Jan-2017, I want to renew it in Sep-2016, as my family is planning to go home country and will be back in March-2017.

    Please let me know if it is possible so I will ask my company PRO for doing this.

    Thanks in advance
