What is a “green card?
A Green Card is a Permanent Residence Visa of the U.S.A. A Green Card will give you legal right to work and live permanently in the United States. Green Card holders receive health, education, and several other benefits. If you win a Green Card, you can apply for U.S. Citizenship at a later time. The Green Card does not affect your present citizenship. You and your family could be lucky winners if you act immediately!
First of all, the name is out of date. The card in question is no longer green, but can be white, or pink, or multi-colored. The important thing to remember is that this document signifies permission to become a permanent resident of the United States. It is commonly referred to as a “Green Card” because, prior to 1978, immigrant visas were green.
