Permanent Residency

6 years ago
Hello Everyone,
I have an American neighbor and he is almost 78 years old.
I'm the one always reminding him about paying his taxes and renewing his residency.
Actually I've been telling him since last year that it's time to apply for his Permanent Residency.
He waited until now.
His Temporary Residency will expire in July.
My husband just met him and he said that he had to spend US$900.00 and that now he needs to keep applying for residency every 3 years.
I just emailed the lawyer about this because I think he is confused.
My question is: Has there been any change concerning getting Permanent Residency?
In our case when we renewed it we didn't use a lawyer.
Now that we are applying for Permanent Residency we are doing it on our own again since we speak Spanish.
I would appreciate your input on this.
Thanks.
