    Permanent resident, not a citizen. He wasn’t eligible to vote, do jury duty, or be drafted, but after all that time, those are basically the only differences.

      Btw, Permanent Residents can be drafted, FYI.

      Male Green card holders have to register for the Selective Service at age 18, or immediately upon entering if already 18, unless they arrive after their 27th birthday

      They love to give you responsibilities, but not the rights
