Green Card

[AnaGRicky 0]

Hello,

A Quick Question,

Back in 80's I was married to an American, I had a Green card, I did not apply for citizenship.

I moved back to Canada in 88'. They saw it in my wallet on one of my visits back and forth and took it back

Now my son is sponsoring me to move back to US, to be close to my grandchildren , and on the I130 application I stated my green card number.

My consolate meeting is coming up shortly, just wanted to know what to expect.

1) Does a green card get expired? Will they reissue me the same number?

I also have a SSI number.

Thanks,

Your "A" number is your "A" number.... greencards do now expire... the did not before..

They took it because she had left the USA, and was out of the country greater than the time alloted for a GC holder. Therefore that is probably why her son has re-applied to have a new visa issued for his mother.
