I am a new immigrant to America. How long can I change my current A5 card for a green card?

You can apply after one year. 1. The materials to be submitted include: I-485, birth notarization, I-94, passport (home page and visa page), 2 passport photos, I-693, G-325a, and other identification documents such as social security number, work permit and driver's license. All the above forms are photocopies, and there are two checks for payment (I you don't need tax returns and deposits, but if you have an interview, you should bring them with you, and the immigration officer may want to have a look. If the applicant for political asylum leaves his original address, he must notify the Immigration Bureau within five days, so there may be trouble if the mailing address and address are inconsistent. 2. Generally, lawyers will be invited to apply, and few people apply for downloading forms: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-485.pdf, http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-693.pdf and http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/g-325a.pdf..
