Kristien received her permanent resident card or “green” card today. I think for historical reasons the DHS feels like there should be some green color on the card. In fact, part of the back side has text printed in green.

There’s very basic information on the card much like a passport. The back side, however, has a very interesting metallic appearance. Also printed on the back is a reassuring statement: “The person identified by this card is authorized to work and reside in the U.S.”
