I have got the same as you Mr Ojha, I always wonder what is really green card, as I often hear it on Sajha, Is it a American Passport? I think American Passport is Blue as well. Otherwise what is really a green card? Is it a work permit? Or is it a PLR (Permanant Leave To Remain)? Can some one from State please explain.

narayanbdr Green card I believe is a Resident permit as we call it here in europe, you have the right to live and work in US. You have almost all the rights except for voting right.

It is called Green Card, though it is blue, because it gives you a green signal for
- enjoy the privilege as second class US citizen
- travel from Nepal ( no need to take visa)
- jobs

यस्तै गरि एक दिन भर्खरै नेपालबाट आउनु भा’को एउटा पाको मान्छेसंग मेरो कुरा भा’थ्यो।

बाबुको नाम के? थर के? नेपालमा घर काँ? बा को नाम के? बा के गर्नु हुन्छ? कति भो अमेरिका आ’को? अनि अहिले के गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ? आदि ईत्यादि सोध्न भ्याउनु भएपछि, अन्तिममा प्वाक्क सोधि हाल्नु भो, “अनि, बाबुको ग्रिन कार्ड पनि छ?”

एकछिन त ट्वाँ परें। त्यो पुरा खोजि निधि पछि मलाई नि वाक्कै लागि सकेको थियो।

“ग्रिन कार्ड त होईन, तर मसंग METRO CARD चईं छ,” subway चड्ने metro card वालेटबाट झिकेर देखाएं।

“ये! के हो बाबु यो metro card भन्नि? अनि यसले जान आउन पाउँछ त?” metro card लाई धोरेर हेर्दै सोध्नु भयो।

“किन नपाउनु नि? म त monthly unlimited किन्छु, जत्ति पनि जान आउन पाउँछ!”

“नेपाल पनि जान पाउँछ?”



“अनि यसले काम पनि गर्न पाउँछ?”

“कामै त होईन, तर काम सम्म जान, आउन मज्जाले पाउँछ।"

“अनि यसले के के benefit हरु पाउँछ त? health, social security?”

“अरु त तेस्तै हो, बरु यसले transportation benefit चईं १००% पाउँछ।”

“अनि lawer सयर लाई नि खर्च गर्नु प-यो कि? कति प-यो?”

“lawer नै चाहिन्न यसलाई। खर्च भन्या तेई हो सबैलाई पर्ने -- monthly unlimited को जम्मा $७६। मासिक तिर्न पर्छ।”

******“नेपाल पनि जान पाउँछ?”

“अब, नेपालै त होईन, तर नेपाल जानलाई airport सम्म चईं जान पाउँछ। तेस्पछि त के हो र? पिलेन चढेपछि जाबो २० घण्टा त हो!”


***ठट्टै ठट्टामा। कसैको वास्तविक अनुभवसँग मेल खाए, लेखक आफैं जिल्ल पर्नु हुनेछ!***

A 'Green Card' is known as PERMANENT RESIDENT CARD.

What Is Permanent Residence?
A person who has permanent residence status in the United States has the right to live and work in the US without restriction. This right may last for a lifetime, or it can be ended in some circumstances by an uninterrupted absence from the United States of more than a year or two.

Permanent residents are said to have immigrant status in the US, in contrast to foreign nationals who are here temporarily in nonimmigrant status, such as F-1 students, J-1 scholars or H-1 temporary workers. In popular parlance, a permanent resident is said to have a "green card," an outdated reference to the permanent residence identification card, which used to be green but is now a pale red, white and blue. Permanent residents are also often said to have "PR."

Permanent residence is not the same as citizenship. Permanent residents of the US remain nationals of their home country. They do not hold US passports and they do not owe allegiance to the US. They may not vote in elections and they may not hold elective office. After a certain period of physical presence in the US (five years in most cases, three in some), permanent residents can apply for US citizenship if they choose, but it is not necessary to become a citizen to retain the right of permanent residence
