New I-90 Receipt Notices Can Serve as Evidence of Status and Work Authorization

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has replaced the sticker that was currently issued to lawful permanent residents to extend the validity of their Form I-551, Permanent Resident Card (“Green Card”). The revised Form I-797 notice will serve as a receipt notice for the Form I-90. The notice will serve as evidence of identity and employment authorization when presented with an expired green card.
