What Is a Green Card Application?
A green card application is a form that's filed by a family or individual that allows the applicant to obtain legal documentation as a lawful permanent resident of the United States. The legal status of an immigrant determines which form should be filled out; these forms include Form I-90, Form I-130, Form I-485, and Form I-175. All applications have an applicable fee. Once obtained, a green card provides many of the rights of American citizens.
A green card is also known as Form I-551 Permanent Resident Card or Alien Registration Card. Anyone who has a green card must carry it with them at all times.

Every H1 visa issued today is an H1B. There have been H1A and H1C visas in the past, but both were special cases created to fight nursing shortages and both are now out of use. However, you can still get a special H1B1 if you're a Chilean or Singapore national.
