Hi Dad, my husband’s laptop got compromised

I need advice really badly. He clicked a phishing link by accident, and it opened his laptop up to a hacker. Luckily I’m computer savvy and reset his computer right away, and got the hacker out of his email asap, but many things were compromised. He was in his PayPal, he got locked out of his discord, and the hacker was using remote software to be in the laptop. I know he saw things like a credit card statement (already got on the phone and replaced said card) and even worse, his green card. We had been working on his green card renewal paperwork. I’m terrified on what can be done with all this information. I don’t know what we should be replacing, what we should be doing. What they may know. I put 2FA on everything of his I could think of. Everything of mine already had it. Our bank doesn’t offer it? lol. I’m not sure what this person was ultimately after. I’m scared 😩

We also changed all of his passwords.
