My green card is expiring soon, and I went to USCIS to submit I-90 to renew my green card. I went straight to the online option, as it sounded real convenient.
The problem is, my first name happens to have a space in it in the original green card (like "Abcd Efg"), but the online form wouldn't accept it. So I typed it without the space ("Abcdefg"). I completed and submitted the application, but then belatedly found out on their website that they recommended using a hyphen to go through the form. It says:
My question is, is this going to be a problem? I've already paid the fee and everything, and I hope that this will not be a problem.
Also, I've changed my address a couple of times since I got my green card, and I'm not sure if I changed the address with them. I used my current address in the I-90 form. Will this be also a problem?
Thanks!

Restrictions on I-90 Name Field for Multi-Word First or Last Names
Due to a temporary system error, the e-Filing system currently does not accept first or last names with spaces without a dash, hyphen, or ampersand (&) symbol (e.g. Mary Kate is not accepted, but Mary-Kate is).
If your first or last name contains more than one non-hyphenated name, please enter a hyphen on your e-filed application, and bring one of the following documents with you to your Application Support Center (ASC) appointment to confirm the correct spelling of your name:
Birth certificate
Marriage license
Legal name change from court
Certified translated document (if document is not in English)
