Residency

[rebeccajo 14]

I think we need an informed discussion on this.

Besides the right to work and the right to travel freely in and out of the US, what (if any) rights do Permanent Residents possess?

And is there any difference between the rights and priveledges of a Conditional Permanent Resident and a Legal Permanent Resident?

I beleive that other than removing the conditions there is no difference between legal permanent resident and conditional

rebeccajo,

A Conditional Permanent Resident is a Lawful Permanent Resident. The only difference is that a Conditional PR must apply to remove the condition during the 90-day period preceding the 2nd anniversary of gaining LPR status, or they will lose the status.

So that's the ONLY difference?

Just lately I got to wondering if there might be some other differences.

Yeah, there was a thread about that a couple of weeks ago. I think it was in Off Topic and maybe the OP was Purple Hibuscus?
