RTD renewal

[Tesfa]

Hello everyone,
I am an asylee with GC,
My RTD expires in OCT, and I am planing to travel to Germany this Aug.
The German immigration requires min of 4 months of validation the RTD.
So can I renew my RTD now even if its not expired??
Please respond,
Best Regards

Yes you can.

Do I need to send back my RTD with the application?

Well, since it expires only in October, if you keep it, they won't issue you a new one because you will have a valid one already. If it had expired or was to expire in a month or two, you could have kept it, but since you're applying early, you'll have to send it in because they'll cancel it (and will NOT return it to you) before issuing the new one.
