Does anyone know what could happen if a person with one of these "no expiration date" GC's leaves the US on vacation. Will the GC be considered non-valid upon return? I mean how can they turn away someone who has been living here for 30yrs!

I didn't see a date of by when the GC had to be renewed to the 10yr cards.

They need to file for a new card.

The rule proposes a 120-day filing period for applications. Those who file within that timeframe would receive their new cards before we would terminate the old cards. The rule also proposes to give USCIS the authority to announce the termination date of the old cards in a separate Federal Register notice. Under the proposed rule, cardholders who choose to delay and file Form I-90 late would risk a delay before they receive their new cards – which could affect their ability to travel and work.
